Tripoto teams up with DCT Abu Dhabi to promote UAE capital to Indian travellers

Tripoto has partnered with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) to promote the capital of the UAE as the ideal destination for Indian travellers. As part of the partnership, Tripoto created four Gigapixels – digital image bitmaps composed of one billion pixels each and featuring 1,000 times the information captured by a 1-megapixel digital camera. The images, shot across the city, were then meticulously stitched together, with the end result being high-resolution, 360-degree visuals that offers viewers an immersive, bird’s eye view of the UAE capital and its many attractions. Some of the highlights include family-friendly theme parks, such as Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi, Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi and Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, luxury hotels, shopping malls, beaches, golf clubs, and much more.

“This pioneering partnership showcases the way in which tourism is moving, with travellers now being able to zoom right into the city, exploring even the minutest details before they even set foot there. From the grains of white sand on the beaches of Saadiyat Island to the soaring heights of the tallest roller coaster at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi’s Gigapixels really bring the emirate to life, allowing travellers to not only experience the magic of the capital from wherever they are in the world but also plan for their future holidays there,” said Michael Lyngdoh, Founder, Tripoto.

Saeed Rashed Al Saeed, Destination Marketing Director at DCT Abu Dhabi, said, “Abu Dhabi is the perfect destination for savvy Indian travellers, offering everything from family-friendly theme parks to stunning natural attractions, luxury hotels, world-class business facilities, high-end shopping, gorgeous beaches, rich culture, and more. India is Abu Dhabi’s top source market due to many important factors, including close proximity and strong cultural and historical ties. Thanks to our partnership with Tripoto, travellers from India can now explore Abu Dhabi’s best sights down to the smallest detail and explore the city from the comfort of their homes, which will hopefully encourage them to visit the emirate in the future.”
