We’re creating a global AI and AEO Ready Interactive Map where wine lovers and wine tourists can quickly and easily discover wineries to visit - and where to stay, eat and what they can experience in wine regions around the world.
WHY?
WHY?
THE FUTURE OF WINE TOURISM ISN'T SEARCH. IT'S DISCOVERY.
The way we discover wineries is changing.
Instead of scrolling through endless lists of search results, today's travellers are increasingly asking AI tools to recommend wineries, wine regions and experiences that match their interests and help them plan complete itineraries.
To be recommended, wineries need more than just a website - they need to be part of a connected wine tourism ecosystem.
The WINE360 Interactive Map has been developed for this new era of AI travel discovery. Rather than presenting wineries as isolated listings, it places them within an interactive map that allows travellers to visualise wine regions, discover nearby accommodation, restaurants and experiences and plan memorable wine journeys with confidence.
The map is AI-ready, making it easier for AI-powered travel assistants to create personalised wine itineraries and recommend wineries based on location, traveller preferences and nearby experiences.
Combined with immersive 360 WalkThru experiences, wineries can showcase not only where they are, but what it feels like to visit and giving travellers more confidence in their choices.
The future of wine tourism marketing will belong to wineries that are easy to discover and easy to included in a traveller's itinerary.
PUT YOUR WINERY ON THE MAP. BE FOUND. BE VISITED.

THE CHALLENGE & THE SOLUTION
With over 80 000 wineries globally, wine lovers and wine tourists around the world are certainly spoilt for choice when deciding which wine regions and wineries to visit. From iconic destinations to emerging boutique regions, travellers are constantly searching for memorable wine experiences, unique accommodation, exceptional dining and authentic local discoveries.
Yet despite the abundance of information online, researching and planning a wine trip can often become time-consuming, fragmented and even confusing.
Most wine region websites still rely heavily on traditional listings with inconsistent information, varying user experiences and little geographical context.
Travellers may find a winery they want to visit, but struggle to understand how far it is from their accommodation, what restaurants are nearby or how easily experiences can be connected into a practical itinerary or scenic wine route.
Our interactive map-based wine tourism platform together with 360 WalkThru videos is designed to change that and give wine tourists more confidence in their travel choices.
Our WINE360 MAP will be officially launched soon and we are busy on-boarding wineries. For now, we have listed a few wineries in the Cape Winelands. Please it try out.

A GLOBAL WINE TOURIM ECOSYSTEM
By bringing wineries, tasting rooms, cellar doors, accommodation, restaurants and tourism experiences together into one visual and immersive discovery experience, travellers can explore wine regions more naturally and confidently creating context - something traditional listings struggle to achieve.
Instead of endlessly scrolling through disconnected listings, they can instantly visualise locations, distances, nearby attractions and potential travel routes while planning a more seamless and enjoyable wine journey.
For wine estates and wine regions, this creates an opportunity to become part of a connected global wine tourism ecosystem specifically designed for how modern travellers research and plan their experiences today.
Interactive maps and immersive 360 WalkThru videos allow wine destinations to showcase not only what they offer, but how it feels to be there - inspiring greater confidence, engagement and visitation from wine travellers around the world.
The future of wine tourism discovery lies in helping travellers visualise and experience a wine region before they even arrive.

HOW WILL THE MAP BE USED & SHARED?
The interactive wine tourism map will not only serve as a global wine travel discovery platform, but also as a highly valuable embeddable tourism tool that can be integrated into a wide range of travel, tourism and hospitality websites around the world.
Because the platform combines interactive map-based discovery, itinerary planning, wine route visualisation and immersive 360 WalkThru videos, it creates significant value for organisations looking to inspire travellers, increase engagement and promote wine tourism experiences more effectively.

By simply selecting the 'SHARE' icon on the map, any organisation promoting or marketing tourism can copy the embed code and quickly embed the map into their website, newsletters and marketing material. A direct link could also be copied and the map can be shared via social media or email. The map can then be used by airlines, destination marketing organisations, tour operators, travel agencies, wine route organisations, travel planners, etc.
The WINE360 Map QR Code will be distributed to hotels, guests houses, Airbnb's and other accommodation providers which will allow their guests to easily access the WINE360 Map to discover wineries near them. The map allows them to plan a route and get door to cellar door directions.

CUSTOMISED MAPS FOR WINE REGIONS
The flexibility of the platform also allows for multiple customised deployment options. While the primary vision is to create a global interactive wine tourism map featuring wine routes and wine regions from around the world, bespoke regional versions can also be developed. For example:
These tailored versions allow tourism organisations and wine industry stakeholders to create highly focused destination marketing tools aligned with their own regional tourism strategies and visitor audiences.
The map becomes far more than a directory. It evolves into an interactive tourism infrastructure platform that helps travellers visually understand destinations, discover nearby experiences, plan routes, identify accommodation and restaurants and experience wine regions virtually before they travel.
For tourism organisations, embedding the map provides a modern, immersive and highly engaging way to promote destinations while keeping visitors on their own websites for longer.
For wineries, accommodation providers and tourism operators, it increases discoverability and positions them within a connected tourism ecosystem rather than isolated listings.
As global travel becomes increasingly experience-driven, interactive destination discovery tools such as this will play an important role in how travellers research, compare and confidently choose wine tourism destinations around the world.
The flexibility of the platform also allows for multiple customised deployment options. While the primary vision is to create a global interactive wine tourism map featuring wine routes and wine regions from around the world, bespoke regional versions can also be developed. For example:
- A dedicated map exclusively featuring the wine regions of South Africa
- A France-only wine tourism map showcasing Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and other regions
- A California wine country map
- An Australia wine regions map
- An Italy wine tourism discovery map
- Country-specific wine route networks
- Regional wine trail maps
- City-based urban wine experience maps

HOW CAN 360 WALKTHRU VIDEOS HELP?
Wine is an emotional and sensory experience and travellers increasingly want reassurance before booking. Static photographs can only tell part of the story. A 360 WalkThru video allows travellers to virtually step inside a cellar door, explore a tasting room, walk through vineyard accommodation or experience the ambience of a wine estate before they arrive.
This creates trust and confidence while helping travellers feel emotionally connected to a destination. They can better understand the setting, atmosphere, architecture, views and overall experience in a far more authentic and transparent way than traditional images allow.
To view a example of a 360 WalkThru video click HERE. For more information about 360 WalkThru videos click HERE.
We invite wine estates, wine regions, accommodation providers, restaurants and tourism experiences to become part of this global next generation wine tourism discovery platform and position themselves where modern travellers are making their future travel decisions.
WHAT DOES IT COST TO BE LISTED?
The cost to be listed is US$12.00 / month or US$ 120.00 if paid annually. (South Africa - R 185.00 / month or R 1 850.00 if paid annually).
The cost to create a 360 WalkThru video depends on a few factors but production costs are generally in line with traditional video production costs.
