這種到影視劇拍攝地旅游的行為在英語里已經有了一個專門的詞:set-jetting。
Set-jetting is the trend of traveling to destinations that are first seen in movies or TV series. For instance, touring London in a high-speed boat like James Bond, or visiting the stately homes that are seen in the Jane Austen films. The term was first coined in the US press in the New York Post by journalist Gretchen Kelly.
Set-jetting指將影視劇拍攝地作為目的地的旅游,即“取景地旅游”。比如,像詹姆斯•邦德一樣乘坐快艇環(huán)游倫敦,或者到簡•奧斯丁作品電影中那樣的大宅院中游覽。這個詞由《紐約郵報》記者格雷琴•凱麗首創(chuàng)并在美國媒體首先使用。
近幾年,這種取景地主題游暴增。熱門美劇《權力的游戲》熱播期間,克羅地亞、北愛爾蘭等國就成為游客爭相到訪的目的地。
Many countries – among them, Croatia, Spain, Northern Ireland, Iceland and Morocco – are all benefiting from the ultra popular Game of Thrones series. National and international travel agencies join countless online outfits in offering Game of Thronestrips and tours of all lengths and prices.
包括克羅地亞、西班牙、北愛爾蘭、冰島以及摩洛哥在內的很多國家都因為美劇《權力的游戲》熱播而成為熱門旅游景點。各類國內和國際旅行社也開始提供各種價位、長期和短期的《權游》主題游產品。

蘇州、重慶以及巴音布魯克草原也作為電影《希望之神》和電視劇《都挺好》的取景地或拍攝地而成為國內游客必去的打卡目的地。
