July 21, 2021, 03.20 PM

KOMPAS.com – During the Covid-19 pandemic, governments impose policies restricting people’s movement to contain the spread of the virus. Most countries, including Indonesia, have closed their borders to travelers, except for business trips.

The restrictions have affected various sectors such as tourism. Tourist operators around the globe, however, came up with an alternative by offering virtual tours of popular tourist attractions. The idea was well-received.

With the closing of tourist destinations, nowadays people take advantage of the internet to visit places that are on the bucket list.

One of the social media platforms used for virtual tours is TikTok via the accounts of travel influencers. Usebounce.com on June 3 recorded several must-visit vacation destinations in the world based on the hashtags used for the names of the tourist destination.

Here is the list of the popular virtual tours:
