The most interesting things I do as a local guide: "The 360° tour"

Love for travelling has made me explore hidden sapphires of this world in the name of beautiful places.
Apart from just exploring, I have been contributing to google maps from the past three years.
When I was in college I used to visit the nearby restaurants and places and on the way back I post the
photos or reviews on Google Maps.
After college, I got a job as a Virtual Travel Photographer for google maps.
Then it all began towards my 360° tours.

  1. NAKODA JI JAIN TIRTH TEMPLE, Barmer

Let’s redefine memories…

I visited this place when I was “two” with my family and a few months back after almost 20 years I get to visit the same place
for my job tour.
With the blooming eyes and eagerness, I quickly checked this place on Google Maps but ended with knowing that this place has no
360 photo tour on Maps.
So, after a detailed visit to the place, on my way back I made a 360 photo tour of the same and posted on google maps.
And in this way, I redefined my memories in a unique frame.

  1. DECATHLON Jaipur Centre, Jaipur

The 16k views…

This is where sports resides in. The second grand store in Jaipur itself.
So, this newly opened store had the inauguration on November 23, 2019.
Being a new store it doesn’t have it’s 360 photo tour on google maps, here I got the chance and
grabbed my kit to shoot some of it’s still and 360 tour photos.
As it doesn’t have it before on maps, I got some really nice reviews.
And my sports visit got a number of 16k views on Google Maps.

  1. Sam Dunes, Jaisalmer

The 360 safari…

I started my new year with this golden land.
As on this new year, I’ve been to Jaisalmer with my friends.
We explored almost the whole city in two days.
Now, the desert got its turn.
look how can we miss that…?
The Desert Safari which is almost 20 km. away from the main city.
So, while enjoying the safari, I got to know that desert got no 360 tour photos,
but I made it possible and posted the same on Google Maps.
This is how desert got it’s 360 photo tour.

As I am more into travel and photography I love to bind stories through an impactful way.
Seeing a place and redefining them with whatever tools I have energizes me to travel more
often.

I got know a bit late about “trusted Street-View Photographer” on google, but when I get to know
about it ended by being the same after adding 50 verified “Street Photos” on google maps.

Adding 360 photos is a dynamic way to share my stories and I am really very grateful to use this feature
in my photography career and will continue to share beautiful places in an interesting way.
