This is an entrepreneurial story of a Vinkovci company With you behind which stands Vedran Jukić, who ordered the panoramic wheel at the end of 2019. "I visited several factories, but in Turkey I came across the most corporate team that somehow gained my trust because they have many years of experience in making amusement park equipment. I participated in every step of making wheels and often stayed in Turkey. The pandemic caused big problems in production and we brought the wheel to Croatia only this December. Three swans and a truck were needed for the transport, which lasted two weeks. " convinces Vedran Jukić who owns one of the largest amusement parks in Croatia, set up in several locations, most of them at sea destinations.

It takes a maximum of one week to mount a panoramic wheel of this size, and the surface on which the wheel is placed should be 20 by 15 meters. "The idea of ​​purchasing a mobile panoramic wheel has been in my plan for a long time and I saw great potential in it because I have been in the amusement park segment for years, and the fact that I already have a number of inquiries for this season from our sea destinations see an opportunity to strengthen tourist facilities by setting up such a large panoramic wheel " adds Jukić.

According to this entrepreneur, the interest is great and we expect that the panoramic wheel Sky View will be a tourist attraction of our sea destinations that stick to themselves and strengthen their tourist offer.

Tourism is an emotion, and such content is a "must have", especially when we have it in Croatia and it is mobile, and destinations do not have to invest in production and installation, but can set it up when it suits them through a business model of rent.
