360° Virtual Tours in San José
Corporate offices, museums, hotels and restaurants across the capital and the Central Valley.
Why San José businesses use virtual tours
San José is the one part of Costa Rica where the customer is usually already nearby. Someone searching for a restaurant in Barrio Escalante, a clinic in Escazú or a co-working space in Santa Ana is making a decision about somewhere they could reach in twenty minutes — and they are almost always making it on a phone, inside Google.
That changes what a virtual tour is for. In a beach town the tour sells a place someone has never been to. In the capital it does something more immediate: it answers “what is this place actually like inside?” before someone commits to the drive, the parking and the trip across town.

What we shoot in San José
Corporate & office space
Show international staff and clients the working environment before they arrive. Useful for recruitment, for remote onboarding, and for reducing the number of site visits a lease decision needs.
Museums & cultural venues
The Teatro Nacional, the gold and jade collections, and the city’s smaller galleries all have interiors worth reaching an audience that will never fly here. Hotspots carry the interpretation alongside the image.
Restaurants & hospitality
Barrio Escalante and the surrounding districts compete on atmosphere. A tour published to Google Maps puts that atmosphere inside the search result, at the moment someone is deciding where to eat.
Working in San José
The Central Valley is straightforward to shoot and awkward to schedule. Traffic dictates everything: we plan interior captures around the hours when a space is genuinely clear, which for restaurants usually means well before service and for offices means early morning or the weekend.
Light is the other constraint. Valley interiors tend to combine deep floor plates with very bright windows, which is exactly the situation that defeats an auto-stitching 360° camera. Every scene is captured as a bracketed exposure set and hand-stitched, so the room and the view out of it are both correctly exposed.
About San José & the Central Valley
San José sits at roughly 1,170 metres in the Central Valley and, with its surrounding cantons, holds the majority of the country’s business activity. For a commercial property the region is defined by:
- Business districts: Escazú, Santa Ana and Sabana — corporate offices, free-trade-zone tenants and international headquarters
- Culture: Teatro Nacional, Museo del Oro Precolombino, Museo Nacional and the Jade museum
- Dining: Barrio Escalante’s Paseo Gastronómico, plus the Mercado Central and the Barrio Amon district
- Access: The main international gateway at Juan Santamaría, and the road links to both coasts
Because the capital is where most Costa Rican businesses have a physical address, it is also where a Google Business Profile does the most work. Publishing a verified 360° interior through the Street View Trusted programme puts the inside of the premises directly into Maps and Search results.
Expert Insights
Do you travel to San José from La Fortuna?
Yes. We are based in La Fortuna and shoot across the country. Travel to the Central Valley is quoted as a separate line on your estimate so you can see exactly what it adds.
Can you photograph an office without disrupting the working day?
Yes. Office and commercial interiors are usually captured early in the morning or at the weekend. Each 360° scene takes a few minutes on a tripod and needs the space clear rather than empty of furniture.
Can the tour be published to our Google Business Profile?
Yes. We are a certified Google Trusted photographer, so the imagery can be published straight into Google Maps and attached to your Business Profile as well as built into a tour for your own website.
