Dominican Republic – Pirates of the Caribbean
The pirate trilogy was largely filmed on location in the Dominican Republic. The films brought the country much praise in the international media and for good reason; the scenery in the films is breathtaking. Nothing better than white sand beach, clear blue ocean and some rum, eh?
Italy – The Gladiator
Much of the epic film Gladiator was filmed in Rome and in other areas in Italy. The historic sites in Rome and beautiful scenery of Italian countryside make a perfect holiday setting. If you have seen the film, it’s easy to visualize what the Colosseum was like in its glory days.

The first Star Wars film made in 1977 was partly filmed in Tunisia. The desert planet of “Tatooine” was filmed in Tunisia, and as a matter of fact there is a real town called Tataouine some miles south of the filming location.
New Zealand – The Lord of the Rings
New Zealand is now known as Middle Earth. Many fans have traveled over just to see the locations they fell in love with on the screen.
