The Google Video Tours

Hello All,

How does one start providing the video 360 tours for the Google Business Profile pages (formally GMB)? Here is a “tour” that Joseph Danzer (Level10) created for my friends at Bond Furniture. How can I do this? How does Google post it? Any info about this would be appreciated.

Thanks, ed!

Hi @Ed-42

If you have 360 street view compatible camera you can upload them using the Streetview app.

If you mean virtual tours you need to use some paid third-party software or services to connect individual photospheres.

Please be informed that support for Google Streetview is no longer available here on Connect.

Learn more in this update by Googler DeniGu: Questions about Street View?

Hi @Ed-42

A “Virtual Tour” is a tour made by a series of 360 photos connected to each other.

To create a Virtual Tour you need a series of 360 photos and a software to connect them and to upload your tour in the Business listing in Google Map.

There are various devices available in the market to create 360 photos, with different quality and obviously different prices, and of course different software to connect the photos and upload the tour.

A list of the available tools can be found in the Street View website: https://www.google.com/streetview/contacts-tools/

Keep in mind that I moved your post to How-tos, since it is not related to the board you published it on.
