To escape the January blues and get away from the grey skies of the city, on Monday, January 18th, we invited Brits in London to take a Virtual Voyage; an all-new, cutting-edge virtual reality experience, which took attendees on a fully-immersive holiday in the sunshine state of Florida, destination Miami. The 360° experience – curated by KAYAK.co.uk – teleported Brits to the middle of the action via VR headsets, and provided the feeling of being right there in the sunny virtual reality world. Curious what all the buzz was about?
Soak up some sun yourself and watch the destination video carefully:
KAYAK is offering one lucky watcher the chance to win a Google Cardboard 45mm Focal Length Virtual Reality headset, so you can take a Virtual Voyage yourself and experience Miami as you never have before. All you have to do to enter, is visit our Facebook page and tell us in the comments how many people can be seen playing beach volleyball.
