With TriptoVR on your Meta Quest, you can lose yourself in the world’s most romantic cities and feel their magic from wherever you are.

Paris

Charming, world-famous and above all romantic, Paris needs no introduction. Wander past the medieval Notre-Dame Cathedral, stroll through the Luxembourg Gardens, stand before the Grande Arche, cross the Pont des Arts, visit the Panthéon and the Louvre, marvel at the Arc de Triomphe, and of course, the Eiffel Tower. Every corner of Paris whispers something beautiful.

Venice

A city unlike any other, Venice was built in the middle of a lagoon and has inspired artists across the world in music, poetry and painting. Known for its mystical masked carnival, its romantic elegance and its incredible beauty, Venice invites you to discover its most iconic landmarks and hidden gems alike, from the Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s Basilica to the Teatro La Fenice. And of course, there’s a boat ride along the Grand Canal. Pure romance.

Florence

The birthplace of the Renaissance and one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Florence is romance written in stone. Marvel at the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore on the Piazza del Duomo, soak in the atmosphere of Florence after dark, encounter the spirit of Dante Alighieri, and cross the legendary Ponte Vecchio. Every palace, church and piazza tells a story of beauty and passion.

Lisbon

Built across seven sun-kissed hills at the mouth of the River Tagus, Lisbon is a city that glows with warmth. Its history stretches back to the 6th century, yet it feels effortlessly modern and open. Centuries-old fortresses and churches stand alongside vibrant contemporary life, and every hilltop offers a new, breathtaking perspective. There’s so much to see and love in Portugal’s radiant capital.

Bruges and Brussels

Brussels, the capital of Belgium and the heart of the European Union, is a city where French and Dutch cultures meet, where medieval squares sit beside modern institutions shaping Europe’s future. Enjoy the view from Rooftop 58, admire the ornate façades of the Grand-Place, and meet the city’s cheeky symbol, the Manneken Pis. Explore the elegant Royal Palace, covered galleries filled with chocolate shops, and from the triumphal arch of Cinquantenaire Park to the futuristic Atomium, Brussels blends royal heritage, culture and innovation beautifully.

Cadaqués

A true hidden gem on the Costa Brava in northeast Spain, Cadaqués is known for its spectacular coastline, whitewashed houses and artistic heritage. This picturesque village inspired countless artists, including the master of surrealism Salvador Dalí, who lived in the area for over 50 years. It’s the kind of place where time slows down and beauty is everywhere you look.

Sintra

A charming village nestled near Lisbon, Sintra is famous for its magnificent historic buildings set amid lush nature. Perched in the mountains between Lisbon and the Atlantic Ocean, it enjoys a delightful microclimate that has drawn visitors for centuries. The village’s name is believed to come from the Celtic word Cynthia, meaning “moon”, a nod to a lunar temple that once stood in the area around 300 BC. Pure enchantment.

Vienna

The City of Music, founded on the banks of the Danube around 500 BC, is one of the most classical and historically rich cities in Europe. Home to Mozart, Freud, Brahms and Strauss, Vienna exudes elegance at every turn. Visit the grand Opera House, step into Mozart’s former residence, admire St. Stephen’s Church and take in the refined atmosphere of Stephansplatz. A city made for wandering hand in hand.

Dubrovnik

The Pearl of the Adriatic glows with a timeless beauty that has captivated travellers for centuries. Journey through its history, feel the vibrant pulse of the city and take in spectacular views of the Croatian coastline. And for Game of Thrones fans, follow in the footsteps of kings and queens through the streets that became King’s Landing. Dubrovnik is a city that casts a spell you won’t soon forget.

Monaco

Opulent, glamorous and perched on the Mediterranean surrounded by France, Monaco is one of the smallest yet wealthiest countries in the world. With a population of around 40,000 in just 0.8 square miles, it’s a place where champagne, supercars and superyachts are part of the scenery.
