Abstract

The impact of recent digital technologies increased in the context of the mobility restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this paper is to identify the immersive elements present in virtual tours, based on a testbed tool intended for the identification of those factors that increase the immersion of a virtual product. The selection of the factors was based on a thorough review of the scientific literature and the use of storytelling. The 125 virtual tours analysed highlighted: a certain degree of immersion in the virtual products; digital content promoting real destinations and the constraining factors of immersive experiences.
