Hidden Gemz - Your ticket to explore the city


The goal of this project is to design an engaging virtual tour experience for visitors to explore the city area, focusing on a day itinerary that highlights local restaurants, activities, and treat spots.


The project aims to provide a comprehensive guide that allows guests to explore the area such as

  • restaurants,
  • art galleries,
  • arcade rooms,
  • board game cafes,
  • and popular treat spots like ice cream parlors and bubble tea cafes.


Students will apply their classroom knowledge in hospitality, user experience, communications and local tourism to create an fun and immersive tour. The project involves gathering feedback from classmates, compiling a list of potential locations, and incorporating local expert advice to curate an authentic and enjoyable experience for guests exploring the city.

Deliverables

The deliverables for this project include a fully designed virtual tour itinerary for a day in the city, featuring a curated list of recommended restaurants, activities, and treat spots.

Hidden Gemz - your ticket to explore the city

We provide a city-exploration platform that sells bookable year-round, self-guided experiences designed for friends, couples, and newcomers to explore multiple local spots in a single day. Our experiences include a meal, an activity, and a dessert, all covered by a single ticket.

This approach not only promotes social interaction and city exploration but also drives revenue to local businesses. Each participating business receives a portion of the ticket sales directly when someone visits with a ticket. Hidden Gemz actively markets these bookable experiences to attract new customers, enhancing the visibility and appeal of local spots.

In September 2024, we will being our mobile app development.
