If any industry has been struggling during the coronavirus pandemic, it’s been the tourism industry. To limit the spread of the virus, far less people are flying, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy seeing the world. Virtual tours allow you to explore the unknown in the comfort of your own home.

From online exhibitions to historical museums and virtual safari's, many iconic sites worldwide are offering free virtual tours. Here are the top places you can explore through the power of technology.
