Abstract
Virtual reality (VR) experiences have been the subject of speculation for computer programmers, futurists and scientists for many years. More recently there has been considerable media hype and discussion about the possible uses of virtual reality throughout society. This article will highlight some of the potential uses of VR within the tourism industry, but also address the realistic shortcomings of VR technology. In addition, some future developments will be identified, to determine when and whether VR is likely to offer the potential it promises.
