You're standing on Westminster Bridge in London. The Thames below you, Big Ben ahead. Familiar. Almost too familiar – because you've watched James Bond race across this bridge in Spectre, you've seen it in The Crown, in Darkest Hour, in half a dozen films you love. You've seen the location. Now walk them with MovieWalks.
MovieWalks is a self-guided walking tour app that takes you to the real filming locations of your favourite films – in cities around the world. No tour guide. No fixed schedule. No group of strangers you have to keep up with. Just you, your phone, and the city – transformed.
You download the free MovieWalks app, choose a city, pick a walk, and go. The app guides you from location to location, revealing behind-the-scenes stories, original footage, fun facts and photo challenges along the way. Each stop brings a film or series to life exactly where it was made.
A walk takes around two hours and covers roughly three kilometres. Flat routes. Easy to follow. Completely at your own pace.

MovieWalks currently offers routes in London, Paris, Amsterdam, New York City, Rome, Prague, Venice, Berlin, Barcelona, Vienna, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, Washington D.C., Madrid, Florence, Bath, Mumbai, New Orleans and more – with new cities added regularly.
Each city has its own mix of iconic films and series. In London you walk past locations from Spectre, No Time to Die, Harry Potter, Bridget Jones' Diary and The Crown. In Paris it's Emily in Paris, Midnight in Paris, Mission: Impossible and Sex and the City. In Rome you follow in the footsteps of Roman Holiday, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.
Every city tells a different story. Every walk shows you a layer of the city you've never seen before.
There's something genuinely thrilling about standing in the exact spot where a scene was filmed. The phone box on Great Scotland Yard in London that Harry Potter used to enter the Ministry of Magic. The canal in Amsterdam where a thriller was filmed in the dark. The steps in Prague that Captain America sprinted down. You've seen these places on screen. Now you're standing in them. That gap between fiction and reality – MovieWalks closes it.
And then there are the stories you never knew. That the production of Spectre sent 11,000 letters to London residents just to film one night scene on Westminster Bridge. That Rowan Atkinson drove his own Aston Martin onto the set of Johnny English Strikes Again. That Westminster Abbey refused to let the Da Vinci Code crew film inside – so they rebuilt the entire interior at Lincoln Cathedral instead.
These are the stories that make a city unforgettable. And you only get them when you're standing in the right place.
