Planned around your accommodation
One development or a wider portfolio.
Agree a capture programme that reflects your property mix, marketing priorities and access windows.
Coordinate multiple properties
Plan capture across your student houses and apartments, with clear property naming and a consistent presentation.
Bring locations together
Arrange a programme across several buildings or cities, with room types and priorities agreed for each location.
A useful first viewing
Help students arrive at better questions.
Choosing accommodation often starts long before a visit is possible.
A walkthrough gives students a way to explore at their own pace and discuss the options with family or future housemates.
Your team can share the same tour during enquiries, using it as a reference when explaining room types and the facilities available.
Support international enquiries
Give applicants who cannot travel an opportunity to review the captured accommodation remotely.
Explain room categories
Use clear labels and navigation to distinguish studios, en-suite rooms and other accommodation types.
Put shared spaces in context
Show how captured kitchens, lounges and study areas relate to the wider building.
Give families a shared reference
Let students share the tour with the people helping them decide where to live.
Connect exploration with enquiries
Add the information students need next.
Find the right space
Guide viewers to selected room types and communal areas through branded navigation and clearly named destinations.
Explain the details
Add approved information, photographs, videos and links to room specifications or accommodation guides.
Make the next step clear
Direct viewers to your existing room listings, availability pages or enquiry form. Applications remain within your chosen system.
Representative rooms should be clearly labelled. Where a tour shows an example room type, explain that individual rooms, views and finishes may vary. Current availability and pricing should link to your live listings.
A coordinated capture programme
Make the most of your access window.
Changeovers, room readiness and building access all shape the schedule. We plan these with you before arriving.
Share the scope
Send the locations, property numbers, room categories and communal areas you want to include.
Agree access and preparation
Arrange suitable capture dates and prepare the agreed rooms and shared spaces, with resident privacy considered throughout.
Launch across your marketing
Embed the finished tours on your website and share their links in enquiry replies, emails and accommodation campaigns.
Portfolio quotations: We price around the combined scope, locations and schedule. Share the full project so we can assess opportunities to group capture visits.
Keep the information useful
Update content as details change.
With dashboard access, your team can update agreed multimedia tag content, including text, photographs, videos and links.
The walkthrough records the space on the capture date. If rooms are refurbished or layouts change, we can discuss a return capture.
Managed by GO Virtual Tours

Common questions
Planning your accommodation tours?
Do we need to capture every bedroom?
Not necessarily. For a development, representative room types may be suitable. For a portfolio of houses with different layouts, individual property tours may be more useful. We agree the approach around your accommodation and intended use.
Can you work around student changeovers?
Yes, subject to availability and agreed access. Let us know your changeover dates and when rooms will be clean, prepared and ready for capture.
Can occupied properties be scanned?
Potentially, with suitable access and arrangements agreed by the operator. Residents should be informed and personal belongings or sensitive information removed from view before capture.
Can you capture properties in several cities?
Yes. We provide nationwide capture for accommodation operators and portfolio landlords. Share your location list and preferred timescale so we can plan the programme.
Do you offer one-off student house appointments?
Our student housing service focuses on multi-property portfolios and larger accommodation developments. Contact us with the overall scope of your project.
Can tours be added to accommodation portals?
Where a portal supports external tour links or embeds, the tour can be added using its available options. Compatibility depends on the portal and listing package.
