Businesses offer virtual Google tours

Tourists coming to Cork can now take a 360-degree virtual tour on Google of the interiors of local pubs, restaurants, and hotels before going on to visit the venues in reality.

Even for those who have previously viewed Google Maps and Street View, going indoors really takes the experience up a notch.

First to feature in Cork include city centre pubs such as Long Valley, Le Chateau, and Market Lane. You can visit Curran’s Restaurant, and shortly, hotels such as the Rochestown Park and Carrigaline Court.
