Virtual Tours Are a Great Way to Pass the Time

Staying occupied and entertained while spending a lot of potentially stressful and uncertain time isolating indoors can be a challenge. However, even if you don’t have a streaming video service you can still find hours of enjoyment online with a wide variety of virtual tours.

Here are some ideas for virtual tours that can be entertaining, educational, and or just plain soothing with their mundane predictability:

• Take a virtual museum tour—One of the many superb museums that is currently offering virtual tours is the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan. The vast scope of the Met with its meandering halls full of beautiful paintings, jewelry and sculptures (and much more) are a testament to human ingenuity and a truly inspiring sight to behold from the safety of your computer, tablet, or smartphone.
• Take a virtual train trip—YouTube has a wide variety of videos available depicting hours’ long train trips, road trips, underwater expeditions, and hiking adventures to just name a few possibilities. You can try a 7 hour Norwegian train trip to Oslo on SlowTV, for example. The sky is truly the limit on where you can travel virtually these days, so all aboard!
