Set-Jetting Advice to Have the Best Experience:

Remember to keep expectations in check. Scenery may not look like it did in the movie.
For superfans, if the connection is to the character there may be a disconnect from the setting without the character there.
Bring images or screenshots of favorite scenes and poses that you might want to recreate. It will help you find the right spot and ensure that you don't miss the chance to make that lasting memory!
It's up to you on whether you choose to put together your own set-jetting itinerary or book a tour with a company. We've done both and it comes down to personal preference, time available and location.
If you aren't using a company make sure to research things like nearby parking, restrooms and public access rules.
Be sure to respect the locals and surrounding area. Living "on-set" can come with headaches and a huge influx of visitors. Look beyond just the film site and embrace the local culture.
