Since Back in Action is so fresh, there doesn’t seem to be a dedicated tour available for the Netflix movie’s production. Still, you can find many of the iconic landscapes and historical sites shown in the film by simply traveling around downtown Atlanta and engaging with the local culture. The city is a home to many television and film productions, boasting tons of movie studios, photo opportunities and self-guided walking tours.

Key Scenes: The entire back half of Back In Action takes place in London, including a dramatic final set-piece that sees Matt and Emily battling it out with terrorists along the River Thames. London is a major setting for the movie, as sites like Heathrow Airport, the parliament building and the Thames Barrier are prominently displayed.

Best Time To Visit: London is known for its temperamental weather patterns, offering freezing rains in the winter and dull, humid summers. For the best experience, be sure to explore this area during the mid-spring or mid-autumn months of April or October. These months also offer an array of outdoor activities sure to leave you wanting more.

Transportation Options: Like Atlanta, London offers a very accessible public transportation grid, including buses, trains and cable cars. Those looking to cross the river, as they do in Back In Action, can even hitch a ferry, schedule permitting. For those looking to travel outside of city limits, taxis and Ubers are available, as well as rental car agencies.

After Matt, Emily and the kids arrive at Heathrow Airport, the plot of Back in Action really kicks into high gear. The crew face off against the encroaching forces of terrorist mercenaries, CIA operatives and even local MI6 agents, as they punch, shoot and drive their way to a safe location. Obviously, your vacation to London will be a lot more pleasant, though the charm of the city still manages to cut through the firefights of the movie. Like Atlanta, London doesn’t have an official Back in Action production tour going just yet, though the city is home to numerous film and television classics, so entertainment fans can certainly get their money’s worth. While you’re in town, be sure to check out shooting tours for Harry Potter, Downton Abbey, Doctor Who and more.

Things To Do: Even if you’re not a major film fan, you’ll surely be taken with the many sights, sounds and excursions that London has to offer. The city is home to a number of museums and cultural centers, with the British Museum, Natural History Museum and Buckingham Palace serving as a few must-see favorites. Others looking to explore, shop, and remain entertained should be sure to check out the London Eye ferris wheel, the Chessington World of Adventures Resort and the Borough Market, where local vendors offer a variety of homegrown goods.

Where To Eat: London isn’t generally known for its upscale restaurants, though there are certainly plenty to explore. Still, if you want the true Londoner experience, you should be sure to stop in at a local pub, grab some fish and chips and enjoy a rousing soccer game with the local fans. If you have the chance to score a reservation at the Michelin star-rated Chiltern Firehouse you should definitely make it a priority, but don’t beat yourself up if you wind up enjoying the basics in this beautiful and historic city.

Where To Stay: If you don’t have in-laws with mansions to crash with, like the protagonists of Back in Action, there are still plenty of cozy accommodations to be found all over England’s capital city. If money’s not an object, be sure to check out luxury stays at Strans Palace, The Savoy or the Park Plaza London Riverbank. These rooms will put you directly in the heart of the city, allowing you to step out each morning bright-eyed and bushy tailed, and ready to tackle the day. If you’re looking to save a few pounds, there are also plenty of no-frills hotels that offer discounts, at the expense of being just outside of the action. the Hilton, Resident Inn and the Park Grand are a few relatively low-priced favorites. So long as you don’t show up in search of a dangerous electromagnetic device, each of these hotels also comes with a near-guarantee that you won’t be hunted down by enemy spies, allowing you more time to explore London in peace.
