The company claims to be the world’s first travel VR platform where you can experience various parts of the world right from your cozy couch. “One can choose from a range of virtual reality content such as roller-coaster, urban landscape, ice age, etc. that displays a scenic view in a curated form of storytelling,” added the press release. Further, each VR session in the QuaQua VR facility will range from 7-15 minutes, and passengers can enter the ‘virtual reality dome’ at any time of the day. However, due to the COVID-19 restrictions, the authorities are allowing only eight people inside the facility at a time, as of now.
