Movie Location Guide Reveals the Best Places to Travel
If you’re ready to book your next vacation, online travel agent Travel Republic, has released a guide to some of the world’s most famous movie locations to inspire you.
“Over a quarter of us say that films influence where we want to go on holiday and 36% have added destinations to our ‘bucket lists’ immediately after watching a film” Travel Republic says – demonstrating that Hollywood has the power not only to transport us in our imaginations, but in reality too.
The guide provides a tantalising glimpse into the most breath-taking locations in the world that have been made famous on the silver screen and is a helpful resource if you’re weighing up where next to visit.
Prepare yourself for a serious case of wanderlust for the beach Leonardo DiCaprio called paradise, or the dusty desert-like backdrop of Spaghetti Westerns like those seen in A Fistful of Dollars. The movie guide is a fun resource for those of us who take our travel inspiration from the big screen.
Sixteen beautiful locations – from the exciting streets of New York City to Ireland’s rolling countryside – set the scene for sixteen all-time favourite movies, referencing classics such as ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ and tear-jerkers like ‘Ps I Love You’.
But it’s not just the pairings between movies and locations that makes Travel Republic’s film guide so useful. In fact, the guide is peppered with fun facts throughout and geographical information to quickly get you up to speed on the locations around the world you need to visit. It also confirms the best time of year to travel based on average temperatures, which is helpful when deciding when is best to go.
Plus, every one of the sixteen locations is accompanied by an insider blogger tip. Travel bloggers that have visited the destination share their best advice, must-dos and favourite highlights – to ensure you’re making the most of your vacation to these incredible destinations.
However, it’s worth noting that it is not just the big screen that’s inspiring travellers all over the world. A recent study has shown that 40% of millennials choose a travel spot based on its instagrammability, proving that the smaller screen in our back pocket can also be a highly influential way to pick our next travel destination.
But perhaps it’s not so simple as picking a location just because it will look great on Instagram. Instead, it’s likely that that a spot’s ‘instagrammability’ is a shorthand or ‘millennial’ way of saying that the beauty of the destination is one of the most important things they consider when considering places to travel… something that’s long been the case.
If you’re considering booking a vacation and are ready to be inspired by the silver screen or the smaller screen, start planning your trip now for the summer ahead.
