It's very cheap if you want it to be and fairly easy.
The videos below are YouTube videos.
For the full experience with these videos, you should use a headset,
which you can insert your phone into or have a specialized VR headset,
but you can still have a great experience on a tablet, phone or desktop.
First install the YouTube app on your tablet or mobile.
Then you can wave your tablet or phone around the scene from the YouTube app.
On your tablet make sure to tap the link above the video rather than the play button.
On desktop, you can scroll around the screen.

VR GUIDE
For the full experience with these videos, you should use a headset
but you can still have a great experience on a tablet, phone or desktop.
You can wave your tablet or phone around the scene from the YouTube app,
or scroll around the video on YouTube desktop.
How much should I pay for a VR headset?
You can pre-order a customised Google Cardboard StevePaulSounds headset from the shop for £25
Or I recommend if you can afford it the Oculus Quest 2 for £299/£399
You can get a budget Google Cardboard virtual reality headset for as little as £5 / $5
For a more comfortable headset, of which there are many to choose from, which you can insert your smartphone into, which provide a surprisingly rich experience, expect to spend around £20 / $20 or more.
Google and Samsung's mobile headsets are more advanced, rounded and comfortable
and also cost less than $100 / £100.
Independent standalone headsets with a full VR experience include The Oculus Go, costs £200 / $200.
PlayStation VR costs $240 / £240.
For a more powerful virtual reality set up connected to a PC (Macs don't support VR properly),
the Oculus Rift S costs $400 / £400, Windows Mixed Reality headsets can be cheaper,
Reverb G2, HTC Vive and Vive Pro are more expensive.
Many other headsets are available and more are coming out all the time.
Instructions for watching 360 VR videos in Cardboard or
through your smartphone headset via YouTube and Vimeo apps.
Note: For mobile devices, 360 videos can only be viewed on the YouTube or Vimeo app. They cannot be viewed on mobile browsers, including web views for applications and sites outside of YouTube or Vimeo.
Google Cardboard lets you experience virtual reality in a simple and fun way. With Cardboard/smartphone headset and the YouTube or Vimeo mobile app, you can even watch 360 degree videos for an immersive experience.
