Has anyone seen The Odyssey film yet? 🤯

Have you ever wanted to visit a REAL LIFE movie set? 🤔

This Kasbah hidden away only 3 hours from Marrakech is famous for being used in many major films and series such as Gladiator and Game of Thrones 🎥

What’s even COOLER is they were actually filming for Christopher Nolan’s new movie Odyssey whilst we were there back in February 2025 🤯🤯

📍Aït Benhaddou, Morocco 🇲🇦

SHARE this spot with someone you would like to visit with!🇲🇦

Before you arrive:👇🏻

If your itinerary allows it, we recommend staying locally for the night so that you can experience this beautiful kasbah at both sunset and sunrise. Be warned, it is easy to get lost so we used sunset to figure it out and then sunrise to shoot with our camera 📸🌅

We are unsure if there is an official entrance fee for the kasbah. When we arrived at 5pm for sunset we had to pay 20 MAD per person to enter, however, when we arrived before sunrise in the morning, it was free entry (no locals were there to take our cash) 💰

You can park for free along the main road going through the town. The crowds (tour groups) arrive around 10am and leave before sunset. So if you time it right, you can easily find somewhere to park and also enjoy the kasbah whilst it’s quiet 🤫😍

We weren’t expecting to find THIS on our walk along the Cornish coast… 😍

We were hiking the South West Coast Path from Boscastle to Tintagel when we came across this incredible hole in the cliffs, just as the sun was beginning to set.

Safe to say, we had to stop. 🌅

There’s something about the Cornish coastline at golden hour that just hits differently… little moments like this that make you forget how far you’ve walked. 😂

Save this for your next Cornwall adventure 🥾

And we want to know… who are you watching this sunset with?👇

Your weekends are about to get a whole lot more exciting… ✨

If you live in the UK and want to turn normal weekends into mini adventures, but don’t know where to go… 🤷‍♀️ welcome to our new series! 🇬🇧

COMMENT below the UK places you want us to visit next… 😀 we’re building our weekend bucket list from your recommendations!

FOLLOW along for more UK adventures, hidden gems, and weekend inspiration 💚

📍First stop: Dorset’s Jurassic Coast!

👇

This weekend we explored two of Dorset’s most iconic spots:

🏞️ Durdle Door: One of the UK’s most famous natural landmarks and absolutely worth seeing. The views are incredible, but be prepared for a steep walk… Parking is currently around £15, so factor that into your day out.

🌊 Old Harry Rocks: Our hidden gem of the trip! These stunning chalk sea stacks are much quieter, with beautiful coastal walks and amazing viewpoints. It’s a great option if you’re looking to escape the biggest crowds.

💡 A few tips:
• Wear comfortable shoes- the coastal paths can be uneven.
• Check the weather before you go, as the cliffs can be very exposed.
• Arrive early in peak season for easier parking and fewer crowds.
• Take plenty of water if you’re planning to walk between viewpoints.

The Jurassic Coast is England’s only natural UNESCO World Heritage coastline, stretching 95 miles and revealing around 185 million years of Earth’s history. 🌍🦕

Where should we visit next? 👇🇬🇧

We’ve been making it our mission to explore more of what’s right on our doorstep, and these are 7 places we genuinely think deserve a spot on your UK weekend bucket list:

🌊 Jurassic Coast, Dorset- dramatic cliffs, turquoise water and some of the best coastal walks in the UK.

💦 Aber Falls, Snowdonia- one of our favourite waterfall walks in Wales, with a huge 37-metre waterfall waiting at the end.

🌿 Puzzlewood, Forest of Dean- ancient woodland that genuinely feels like you’ve stepped into another world.

🌳 Lydford Gorge, Devon- a completely different side to Devon, with moss covered woodland trails and dramatic gorge scenery.

🏰 Tintagel, Cornwall- rugged coastline, castle ruins and legends of King Arthur… this whole area is incredible

🏞️ Lake Vyrnwy, Wales - one of the most beautiful reservoirs in Wales, honestly it’s so peaceful here!

The best part? Every single one of these can be turned into an unforgettable UK weekend escape. 🙌

How is THIS hiding in the middle of Devon?! 🌿🤯

(Follow for more UK weekend adventures and hidden gems)

We’ve only just started properly exploring Devon, and we’ll admit… we thought most of our adventures here would involve beaches, coastal walks and seaside towns.

We definitely weren’t expecting to find somewhere like this hiding inland. 😍

📍 Lydford Gorge, Devon

This place genuinely felt like stepping into another world. Towering trees, a dramatic gorge, water rushing beneath the walkways… it gave us serious Jurassic Park vibes. 🦖🌿

Lydford Gorge is managed by the National Trust and there are actually two separate parts to explore:

🌿 The Devil’s Cauldron- this is the part you’re seeing in our video, where the trail takes you down into the gorge and along walkways beside the river.

💦 Whitelady Waterfall – a separate walk through the woodland to an impressive 30 metre waterfall.

We visited after quite a dry spell this summer, so it wasn’t as green and moss-covered as we know it can be after lots of rain. It was still absolutely beautiful, but we’d LOVE to come back when everything is at its lushest and experience the full rainforest vibes. 🌧️🌿

🎟️ Entry: £13 adults / £6.50 children, or included if you’re a National Trust member.

Safe to say, Devon is already surprising us… and we’ve barely scratched the surface!

Are you choosing this 🌿 or the Devon coast 🌊?

YOU NEED TO VISIT HERE! 😍🇬🇷

Zakynthos is so much more than people think it is 😍

While most travellers head straight to Mykonos or Santorini, they completely miss this side of Greece, the one with unreal viewpoints, hidden beaches, and the bluest water we’ve ever seen 🩵

If you’re planning a Greece trip, don’t skip this one ‼️

Save this for later & comment ZANTE for the full itinerary!

We can’t believe we stumbled across these magical fairy pools in North Wales 😍✨

FOLLOW for more adventure travel content 😁

One sunny morning we hiked the Watkin path and came across these STUNNING fairy pools within the Snowdonia national park 😍

After hiking around 20 minutes in the blistering heat, what a moment it was to bathe at this idyllic spot! Chris was loving it… 😂

SAVE this for your next trip to Wales! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Would you cross the world’s TALLEST aqueduct? 😳

The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct in North Wales stands a staggering 130ft above the River Dee and is the tallest navigable aqueduct anywhere in the world! 🌎

You can walk across it… but we decided to take things up a notch and canoe across it instead… and it turned out to be one of the most unique experiences we’ve ever had. 🚣‍♂️

Floating 130ft above the valley with nothing but open air beneath you is a feeling we’ll never forget 🤯

If you’re planning a trip to North Wales, this needs to be on your adventure list

Would you be brave enough to cross it? 👇
