    For fans of the arts a visit to New York’s Guggenheim Museum is a rite of passage, although given the current rand to dollar exchange rate it may be a stretch too far for many of us Saffas.

    Now using tripod-mounted cameras,  Street View trolley cameras and drones you can take a tour of the museum without having to harvest any of your organs to afford it. Mashable gives us a run-down:

    Once you begin your virtual journey, you can check out roughly 120 pieces of art, including a special exhibition from last year called “Storylines: Contemporary Art at the Guggenheim.” In addition to the 2015 exhibit, users can take a deep dive into the museum’s 2013 exhibit “No Country: Contemporary Art For South and Southeast Asia.”

    A kind of virtual elevator, just beneath the navigation control interface, lets you instantly move from the first floor of the museum to the sixth floor in much the same way as you would via a normal elevator.

    A few screenshots from your tour:
