As a lot of you work from home or have young ones with you over the next few weeks, we know being stuck in one place can be a bit of a drag. However, that shouldn’t stop you from exploring the world or taking a trip to the museum for a few hours.

Virtual tours are a growing trend, and with options for children and adults, it’s a great way to take some time away from Netflix or social media and tour a place you never thought you could see. Check out a museum you’ve always wanted to visit, watch a live stream of whales from an aquarium, or even take a virtual walk on the Great Wall of China. The opportunity to learn is right at your fingertips.

Google offers over 500 museum and gallery tours from across the globe
