Case Study: Contiki Holidays creates a VR travel experience with Ciklum

Contiki Holidays - Customer Case Study

Contiki Holidays, a travel company focused on tours for 18- to 35-year-olds, wanted to create an Android virtual reality application to give potential customers an eye-opening preview of destinations before they traveled. To build the prototype and meet its trade show and sales goals, Contiki Holidays worked with Ciklum and its Social & Gaming Unit.

Ciklum started with a proof of concept and then developed the VR application using Unity and an Agile SCRUM approach, with support for Oculus and Samsung Galaxy Note devices. The app was released in July 2015 and included 360-degree video content, interaction points, and simple navigation. Contiki Holidays said the product was delivered within budget and in the defined timeframe, and it now uses the app as a sales tool while continuing to work with Ciklum on support and additional features.
