https://citywalks.live/index.htmlSeveral cities are listed here, and you can "walk" them virtually by watching recorded videos done by people simply walking in the cities. The cities range from Amsterdam, Netherlands to Zurich, Switzerland. You can watch night videos as well as day ones, and ones done during the pandemic as well as ones done pre-pandemic. You can turn sound on or off. You can take "group walks" too.
Sorry, I do not know all the details on using the site. Enjoy !

(7,290 posts)2. Ugh, it sounds exhausting. Is there a driving version?
(kidding!) Although, a driving version would be awesome. Like Google Earth Street View, but faster.
Thanks, I'm a virtual-travel enthusiast.

Might even make the intense weather-forced walks on the treadmill bearable.

I enjoy doing virtual tours to art galleries and museums that I know I'll never get to visit even if COVID wasn't an issue. Google partnered with 2500 museums and galleries for virtual access to their spaces.
