Looking for a romantic getaway with a little pop culture twist? Why choose between a couples' escape and your geeky passions when you can have both? If you're TV series fans dreaming of walking hand in hand through the worlds of your favorite stories, here are 3 perfect destinations for a trip for two.

Edinburgh – For Harry Potter Lovers

A city of ancient stone buildings and magical stories, Edinburgh is a true gem for couples who love Harry Potter. This is where J.K. Rowling wrote much of the saga, in cafés filled with inspiration. Between mysterious alleyways, graveyards that inspired famous names, and magical bookshops, the city feels like a living set straight out of the wizarding world. And with its gothic atmosphere and cozy tea rooms, it's also perfect for romantic moments together.

Mini itinerary for two:

Dubrovnik – For Game of Thrones Fans 

If you were captivated by the battles of Game of Thrones and dreamed of walking the walls of King's Landing, Dubrovnik is your kingdom. This Croatian seaside city combines medieval scenery with breathtaking views. Getting lost in its cobbled streets, climbing the city walls, or sailing to Lokrum Island (Daenerys' refuge!) is an experience that feels both romantic and epic. A true fairy tale... fantasy edition. 


Mini itinerary for two: 

  • Breakfast overlooking the Adriatic Sea

  • Guided Game of Thrones filming locations tour through the Old Town

  • Walk along the city walls

  • Swimming break on Lokrum Island, home to the famous peacocks

  • Sunset dinner on a terrace with panoramic views

London – For Lovers of British Thrillers and Romance 

London is urban elegance mixed with a healthy dose of iconic TV series: Sherlock, The Crown, Doctor Who, and even Bridgerton. Between detective stories and royal romance, the city provides the perfect backdrop for curious couples. You can go from Baker Street to Buckingham Palace before living your own Notting Hill love story. Day or night, London pulses with stories, charm, and emotion. 

Mini itinerary for two: 

  • Breakfast in a vintage café in Notting Hill
  • Photo stop outside Sherlock Holmes' famous address
  • Visit Buckingham Palace followed by a walk through Hyde Park
  • Explore Soho's bookshops and vinyl stores
  • Spend the evening watching a romantic comedy at an independent cinema
