Virtual Africa: The Company

After starting small in the second half of 2004 Virtual Africa has been blessed with great customer satisfaction and a growing national awareness of the power and possibility of virtual tours.

Virtual Africa’s internationally acclaimed virtual tours have helped many of the leading Southern African tourism organizations and venues to greatly enhance their online presence and effectively market their products to a worldwide audience.
Our client base includes groups like The Mantis Collection, Pestana Hotels and Resorts, the Zorgvliet Collection and Isibindi Africa Lodges and venues like Benguerra, Bukela and Kapama Lodges.
Apart from being a Preferred Service Provider for Western Cape Tourism and securing strategic partnerships with The Portfolio Collection, SA Places, GoTravel24 and other leading marketing institutions, Virtual Africa has recently completed one of the largest virtualization projects in the world.

On behalf of South African Tourism, we compiled 100 Scenic virtual tours of the top tourism destinations in the country.
It took only 7 months to shoot, stitch and edit 60 000 digital images.
Everything from Table Mountain to the Kruger Park, Kimberley’s Big Hole and the Hole in the Wall was covered.
The end result is a library of about 4000 panoramic images.

These tours have been included into the official South African Tourism Google Earth layer and are accessible as part of the Google Earth Primary Database.

It is safe to say that Virtual Africa is the leading virtual tour provider in the South African tourism industry and with the list of current projects and the growing understanding of the importance of effective internet marketing, our footprint will most likely double during 2009.
With photographers in almost every part of the country and a absolute passion to keep South Africa on the cutting edge of interactive, media rich technology, we are ready to serve.

Virtual Africa use the best to show case the best.
