Believe it or not, it’s possible to travel the world on your staycation. In the last month, I’ve visited Venice, Paris, Madrid, and many other bucket list locales all from the comfort of my living room. Today, I’m sharing how you can take virtual tours all over the planet without updating your passport and for less than to cost of an Uber to the airport. Enjoy the ride!
Travel the World on Your Staycation
Right now the world is covered in white and it’s hard to imagine that Spring is just around the corner, but it’s true. Even though we might all get to see green grass and warmer temperatures in the near future, one thing we might not see is world travel–at least not for a bit. But there is one way we can still see the world from the comfort of our own home. I’ve found that virtual tours are a fun and informative way to see places I’ve longed to visit all for less than a latte. And you can too.

When In Rome Make Pizza
Our family really enjoyed touring Venice. We had no idea that most of the canals and passageways were so narrow. We also saw the spot where modern typography was invented. Another interesting fact we learned is that the water in the canals is replaced every six hours, with fresh water from the sea. One of the best parts of traveling is trying the food. So in Rome, we took a class through Virtual Tours and learned how to make authentic Italian pizza from Micky and Adry. The crust was AMAZING. I made four pizzas and they disappeared before I could get photos. I did manage to snap a shot of my last pizza.

Travel the World on Your Staycation
No matter what your plans for the coming months include, you can’t go wrong with a virtual trip around the world. One of the best parts is that these tours are free–that’s right–there’s no cost to join and enjoy these live tours of some of the most scenic and amazing places in the world. As a courtesy, the tour guides do ask if you can tip ($3-$5 is suggested) and if not, just help spread the word by sharing the link and information about the tours. How wonderful is that?
