The technology isn't quite there yet to provide true virtual vacations, but that's not stopping a Russian company from offering what is arguably the next best thing:

Russians Enjoy 'Total Recall'-Style Fake Vacations

Persey Tours, a travel agency in Moscow, was a failure at offering real tours. It has achieved success in recent months, however, by offering fake vacations instead.

For just 13,460 rubles (about $500 in American currency), Persey Tours will sell you all of the stuff you would expect to have after your exotic vacation: faked ticket stubs, hotel receipts and even photos with your picture professionally superimposed on exotic landmarks.

Just give Dmitry a call; he even faked a trip to the moon for $2,000 - the fake trip of a lifetime for a Siberian gas station owner who wanted to fly to the moon on Russian space craft.

I wonder what your $2000 gest you? I would think that a pretty convincing fake trip to the moon could be had for a lot less than that. Looks to me like the fake vacation business is wide open to some serious competition.
