Why healthcare and research sites use virtual tours
Most clinical and laboratory spaces are closed to the public, yet patients, funders, partners and new staff all need to understand them. A virtual tour shows a child's ward before an admission, a cleanroom to a pharmaceutical partner, or a new research building to donors, without infection-control risk or disruption. We have worked with NHS trusts, charities and life-science companies on tours used for exactly these purposes.
Security and consent built in
Tours can be password-protected, split into public and internal versions, and photographed with no patients or identifiable data in shot. Our photographers follow your infection-control and access procedures and are used to shooting in theatres, laboratories and wards between sessions.
Turnaround and cost
Simple tours can be live within a few days. Pricing starts at £700 and is based on the number of scenes, with no travel charges in mainland UK. Overseas laboratory projects are quoted individually.
What a healthcare tour includes
Every hospital, laboratory and clinic tour is built around access control, accuracy and a quick turnaround.
Quick turnaround
Straightforward tours can be live within days of the shoot, so a new facility can be shown to stakeholders as soon as it opens.
Custom design
Interfaces built for stakeholder engagement, patient information or induction, with hotspots for the detail each audience needs.
A named project manager
One contact who plans access, consent and scheduling with your estates and communications teams.
UK and overseas

Build and launch
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 your team. Allow one to four weeks depending on size.
Four tours with interfaces designed around the client
Each was designed and built from scratch around the people who will use it, whether patients and families, supporters, or the staff a hospital wants to recruit. Read how they work, or open the live tours and look around.
Research institute · Cambridge
Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute
One of the largest cancer research facilities in Europe. The tour follows a sample from the clinic, through the labs, to the data, with the equipment and people in every room explained and questions from the Institute's scientists to explore.
Charity research lab · Edinburgh
Target Ovarian Cancer
Two laboratories at the Nicola Murray Centre for Ovarian Cancer Research. Eleven pieces of equipment, each with a close-up photo and a plain-English explanation, and films from the researchers, so supporters can see what their donations pay for.
NHS recruitment · East London
Barts Health NHS Trust
A careers tour across four hospitals, from St Bartholomew's to Newham. Critical care units, staff rooms and gardens, with the Trust's values, staff benefits and vacancies on every screen.
What it costs
From £700 per tour
Bespoke 360 tours start from £700 and most fall between £700 and £5,000, priced on the number of scenes and the interface design, so larger tours cost proportionately less per scene. You get a clear quote before anything is booked. The CMS is an optional extra quoted with the tour, there is no ongoing cost of any kind, the interface is designed entirely around your brand, and they suit small and large sites alike. All prices exclude VAT.

Frequently asked questions
Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Just get in touch, or even better, book a video consultation.
How do you handle patient privacy?
We photograph clinical areas when they are empty or with consent, blur anything identifiable such as whiteboards and paperwork, and can supply the tour for review before it is published.
Can you work in sterile or restricted laboratories?
Yes. We have shot in high-containment laboratories and research centres, following each site's gowning and access procedures, and our equipment can be wiped down and sealed as required.
What are healthcare virtual tours used for?
Reassuring patients before a maternity, mental health or surgical admission, showing donors and stakeholders the work inside a research lab, recruiting clinical staff and helping visitors find their way around large hospital sites.
