An illustrated, CGI or aerial map of your campus, with clickable buildings that open 360 scenes, photos, video and text. A cost-effective way to show a large school or university site, on its own or as the front door to a full virtual tour.
Large campuses are hard to understand from a list of rooms. An interactive map gives visitors the layout first: boarding houses, sports fields, science blocks and halls in one picture, each opening to a 360 scene, a gallery, a video or a description. Prospective students see where things are and how the site fits together, then dive into the areas they care about.
We can work from your existing illustrated map, commission one, or use an aerial photograph or 360 captured by our drone team. Hotspot content is edited by your team through the optional CMS, so the map stays current as buildings change.
Interactive maps start from £700 and are often combined with a school virtual tour, using the map as the starting screen. No travel charges apply in mainland UK.
Everything needed to turn a campus image into a navigable admissions tool.
Illustrated, CGI, architectural or aerial. We advise on which works best for your site and can commission or capture it.
Each area opens 360 scenes, photo galleries, video or text, so the map doubles as the tour's navigation.
Departments, accommodation, sport, transport and open-day routes as switchable layers.
Move a hotspot, rename a building or add a new block yourself, without a redesign.
Pinch, zoom and tap on a phone; keyboard and screen-reader support on desktop.
See which buildings visitors open most and how far they explore.
Four steps, one named contact, and a clear price before anything is booked.
Tell us about the building and what the tour is for. A clear, no-obligation price, with no travel charges anywhere in mainland UK.
We agree the scene list, navigation and hotspot content with you. Our preparation checklist gets each space camera-ready.
A photographer captures each scene on full-frame DSLR kit, five to ten minutes per scene. Drone 360s and still photography can be added on the same visit.
Every scene is individually edited and built into your branded tour. You review a draft, we refine it, then it goes live. With the optional CMS added, there is editing access for the admissions and marketing team. Allow one to four weeks depending on the size of the campus.
We can include floorpans, illustrated maps and aerial shots to act as your interactive school map and virtual tour. Each scene can offer a different viewpoint, many choose 360 virtual tour scenes, but high resolution still images can be used, or simple text pop-ups to describe each area on the map.

Read some testimonials below from some current and past school, college and university clients.
Matthew and the team have been incredibly helpful and professional throughout the process of the 360 virtual tour. From the first call, to the finished product, everything ran smoothly and quickly. On the day, they were able to provide us with suggestions and comments for the best shots. The finished tour is excellent and better than we could have ever expected.Georgina BerryCity of London School
360 Virtual Tours provided us with an exceptional 360 tour of our college campus. They were attentive, enthusiastic, and easy to work with from the start of the project, as well as being incredibly organised. At a time when we couldn’t welcome prospective students and families through our doors, they provided an invaluable insight into our college. Thank you very much to Matthew and his team, we would highly recommend you to anyone that asks.Zoe BrookesIsle of White College

Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Just get in touch, or even better, book a video consultation.
Not necessarily. We can work from your existing illustrated or CGI map, capture a new aerial image with our drone, or use a floor plan. Each has a different look and cost, and we will advise which suits your site.
Yes. Interactive maps are often the front door to a full 360 tour, with each building or hotspot opening the relevant scenes, and your team edits the hotspot content of both through the optional CMS.
Less than a full virtual tour because fewer scenes are needed. Pricing depends on the source image, the number of hotspots and any 360 scenes or video you want to include.
