It’s 2024, and let’s be honest—our travel plans are getting as much inspiration from our screens as from our Pinterest boards. TV shows and movies are doing more than serving us epic plot twists—they’re showing us places that make us want to pack our bags, book a ticket, and shout, “I’m coming for you!”. Here are seven(7) movie spots that will not only inspire your travel plans but also give you some great stories to tell. And who knows, you might even bump into a film crew!
1. Paris and Rome – Emily in Paris
Just when you thought Emily Cooper had Instagrammed every corner of Paris, she’s back in season four to remind us why this city never loses its charm. Picture yourself sipping espresso at a cozy café in Montmartre or wandering through the iconic streets of the Marais district. This time, Emily takes it up a notch with a side trip to Rome. Whether you’re tossing a coin into the Trevi Fountain or twirling your pasta in Trastevere, this city will have you channeling your inner Emily—just maybe without the wardrobe drama.
2. Oxfordshire and London – Bridgerton
Fancy stepping into a Regency-era romance? The latest season of Bridgerton treats us to sweeping shots of Oxfordshire’s picturesque countryside and the grandeur of London. You can stroll through magnificent gardens, pretend you’re part of a high-society ball, and maybe even practice your best curtsy. London’s regal landmarks will have you feeling like you’re in a period drama, but don’t be surprised if the only dukes and duchesses you find are on Netflix.
3. Abu Dhabi Desert – Dune: Part Two
If your heart is set on something more adventurous, Dune: Part Two gives us jaw-dropping views of Abu Dhabi’s vast desert landscapes. Channel your inner Paul Atreides and explore the sweeping dunes. The golden sands stretch endlessly under the sun, creating an otherworldly experience. Pack plenty of water (and maybe a guidebook on how to avoid sandworms) as you step into the cinematic beauty of Abu Dhabi’s deserts.
4. Thailand – The White Lotus
Season three of The White Lotus transports us to the exotic beauty of Thailand. From the bustling energy of Bangkok to the serene beaches of Phuket and Koh Samui, this show’s dramatic backdrop makes you want to book a flight immediately. Whether you’re bargaining at local markets or lounging on white sandy shores, Thailand offers the perfect mix of culture, adventure, and relaxation. Just don’t get caught up in the drama – that’s for the characters on the show.
5. Sydney, Australia – The Fall Guy
If you’re dreaming of a city that’s always buzzing with energy, Sydney, Australia, is the place for you. The Fall Guy shows off this stunning city with iconic landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and the bustling Martin Place. Follow in the footsteps of Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt as they navigate the vibrant streets. And while high-speed chases may look fun on screen, maybe leave those to the professionals. You’re here for the beaches, cafes, and sun-soaked skyline views.
6. New Zealand – Avatar: The Way of Water
Ready to visit a place so magical it feels like another planet? Avatar: The Way of Water takes us back to New Zealand, where lush forests, towering mountains, and pristine coastlines double as the incredible world of Pandora. Whether you’re hiking through the famous Fiordland National Park or taking in the coastal views of the South Island, New Zealand is as breathtaking as it looks on screen. Just don’t be surprised if you find yourself feeling a bit blue—in a good way.
7. Scotland – Outlander
Last but not least, Outlander continues to showcase Scotland’s rugged beauty. With its misty highlands, ancient castles, and dramatic cliffs, Scotland feels like a place where time stands still. Wander through rolling hills, explore enchanting lochs, and maybe even search for a stone circle that will whisk you back to the 18th century. Time travel isn’t guaranteed, but the spellbinding landscapes are.
From the romantic charm of Paris and Rome to the rugged highlands of Scotland, 2024’s hottest TV shows and movies are inspiring us to turn our travel dreams into reality. So why not take a page out of these on-screen adventures and start planning your next trip? Just remember, if you start seeing everything through an Instagram filter, it’s probably time to put the phone down and enjoy the journey.
