Sometimes a television show’s location plays as big of a role as the show’s stars. Thanks to these television themed tours, fans of these five hit programs can re-live the best scenes on the real-life sets—without exposing themselves to the dangers of toxic drugs or flesh-hungry zombies.
Breaking Bad, Albuquerque
Fans of BreakingBad and Better Ask Saul can trace the misdoings of anti-hero Walter White, Jesse Pinkman and sleazy lawyer Saul Goodman at hotspots like Java Joe’s, Loyola’s Family Restaurant and Vintage 423. Best bets for fan fanatics seeking a glimpse of Jesse’s house, Walt’s Car Wash and other iconic sites is via guided tours courtesy of Breaking Bad RV Tours, ABQ Trolley BaD Tour or the more strenuous Biking Bad Tour.
Walking Dead, Atlanta
Get into the same trouble as The Walking Dead‘s Rick Grimes and his band of motley Zombie-killing survivors by joining up with Atlanta Movie Tours whose docents have all worked as extras on the show. Stops along the tour include the homes of Rick and Morgan Jones, Bellwood Quarry where we first meet Shane, Carl and Laurie, Hershel’s farm, the prison and last but not least the creepy town of Woodbury (actually Senoia, Georgia).
Mad Men, New York
Get yourself a pack of smokes (we recommend candy ones of course) and join the Mad Men Tour in New York City, which takes in eight Mad Men locations including the settings for the offices of Sterling Cooper and later Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. An imbibing nighttime excursion takes in three bars from the show and encourages guests to dress in their 60s best as they sip cocktails like Don and Betty or Peggy would have.
American Horror Story, New Orleans
The Crescent City is among the most iconic in the world, so it’s no surprise that Hollywood has set up shop here many times. The Original New Orleans Movie Tours makes no less than 30 stops that loop in blood thirsty sights from True Blood and American Horror Story: Coven, while also offering a hat tip to real locations from big screen gems like JFK, Django Unchained, 21 Jump Street, Green Lantern, Interview with the Vampire, Easy Rider, The Pelican Brief and many more.
Sex and the City, New York
Grab three of your best gal pals (or guy friends) and take in a whopping 40 locations from beloved HBO dramedy Sex and the City, set in Manhattan. The Sex and the City Hotspots Tour includes a visit to Carrie’s brownstone stoop, Scout the bar owned by Steve and Aidan, the Pleasure Chest where Charlotte buys her “Rabbit,” the site of Carrie and Big’s wedding rehearsal and many more. Yes, the tour also includes a bit of shopping and a cupcake pit stop.
