Sadly, at the end of June Google is closing the doors on
Tour Creator. There are some business working on making options to Googles Tour Creator.
Explorations Pro..

Explorations Pro is still in beta but I got to try it out previously today. My preliminary impression of it is that it will be an outstanding replacement for Tour Creator as soon as all of the quirks are exercised..
When I initially signed into my beta Expeditions Pro account I was struck by the resemblance to Tour Creators interface. The procedure of developing a VR trip in Expeditions Pro is very similar to that of Tour Creator. You merely pick a cover image, title your trip, then start to include scenes. Including scenes is much like adding slides to a slideshow except that instead of including basic images you submit 180 or 360 degree breathtaking images..
Explorations Pro supports making use of zip files that are developed when you use Google Takeout to download your Tour Creator files. In reality, I d advise doing that prior to Google shutters Tour Creator at the end of the month. (Heres a video about how to utilize Google Takeout)..
Applications for Education.
Once Expeditions Pro leaves beta and ends up being readily available to the public, I believe that it will be a fantastic alternative to Googles Tour Creator. Students will be able to utilize it to create their virtual truth trips about local history, about books, about location, about geology, and many other intriguing subjects.

Im hoping that Expeditions Pro is readily available to the public in time for the next school year due to the fact that Im delighted to see what teachers and students will make with it.
