Half a dozen interesting 'field trips' to places like Ancient Rome, the Space Station and the Titanic. Many of these have guided tours with narration and also free tours where you can jump around to various places in the 3D modeled world. The models are generally decent but the skins are often somewhat low resolution and doors and windows can look painted on. Still it is a solid educational experience and the Titanic is especially good as it has been updated recently.
This is another of what I think of as the Tardis apps which let play your favorite time traveler and checkout and interesting time and place. Sadly there are no other people and certainly not a lovely assistant nor is it photo-real, but nonetheless for me looking at a reasonable 3D representation of something while hearing about it is my best learning experience. Whether seeing a massive statue of Athena, walking the decks of the Titanic, looking at passable versions of dinosaurs, touring Rome or looking at the huge stones of the appropriately named Stonehenge, this is a good learning experience that can happen only in VR.
