Virtual Nature Experiences

In 2020 Green My Experience and Amazon partnered to create virtual reality experiences as part of Amazon’s Amazon Explore program, bringing nature-based experiences into the homes of Amazon customers worldwide.

 

The vision

Create a virtual escape from quarantine where Amazon customers could plant trees, attend a meditation session within the forest, or visit with a local artisan from their couch. Simultaneously, generate revenue for local tourism companies whose businesses were suffering during the pandemic allowing them to sustain until travel resumed.

 

The solution

We created 12, real-time, virtual reality experiences. Experiences included visiting wildlife rescue centers, local artisan and indigenous craft shops & markets, guided meditation sessions, museum visits, salsa lessons, and even planting your own tree in La Maestra reforestation project.

RESULTS

500+

guided sessions

were facilitated as live virtual experiences
