Antigua and Barbudahas become the first Caribbean country to offer full Google Street View coverage, with images on Google Maps already viewed 2.43 million times.
This milestone comes from a collaborative effort between World Travel In 360 and the Ministry of Tourism, aimed at increasing the island’s visibility to a global audience.
Led by World Travel In 360’s CEO Federico Debetto and COO Dimitar Kunev, the team faced the challenge of mapping 1,300 km of streets. Advanced technology, including custom-modified Insta 360 Titan cameras, helped capture detailed panoramic views.Tourism Minister Charles Fernandez lauded the project for giving prospective visitors an immersive way to explore the island, helping them navigate and discover its offerings with ease.
Prime Minister Gaston Browne emphasized that the initiative boosts Antigua and Barbuda’s appeal by showcasing its natural beauty and cultural landmarks, aiding tourism and economic growth.
Ambassador Dr. Dario Item played a key role in bringing the project to Antigua and Barbuda, with World Travel In 360 providing their services free of charge. More mapping efforts are expected, with plans to extend the project to other Caribbean nations.
