Several of you have asked me about adding Google Earth style fly over video into the tours. I have looked into it. Apparently all you need is a license version of Google Earth Pro. The video clips are created right out of their software. The license is $399. 

Based on everything I have read, we cannot automate the creation of the videos. I could be wrong, so please let me know if you find out different. What that means is every video would need to be made by hand. 

My question to you, would your Agents pay more to have these included in your tours. Is it worth $20 more per tour? For TourBuzz to provide the service we would have to pay someone to create the videos and add them to your tours.

You can always purchase a license and do the work yourself.  Here is the link to the information about Google Earth Pro: https://earthprostore.appspot.com/product-view.ep?pID=COEPRONEW

Interested to hear your thoughts.

Probably not worth the effort, I'd think if we needed it we could get it somewhere online and add it as a video ourselves
