The Adriatic, Dalmatian, and Ionian Seas cruise itineraries include stops in Croatia, Albania, Montenegro and Greece. Passengers have two days to discover the medieval treasures of Dubrovnik, the main filming location in Croatia for King’s Landing. The Baroque architecture was used as a backdrop for many of GOT’s iconic scenes. The cruise also includes a day in Split, a town on Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast, known for its beaches and the fortress like complex, Klis, at its center. The fortress was featured in GOT season four when Daenerys Targaryen and her army of Unsullied marched towards Meereen. The streets of Meereen were shot both on Klis Fortress and in Diocletian’s Palace in Split.

Kirkjufell, or “Church Mountain”, one of the most photographed mountains in Iceland known in GOT as the mountain shaped like an arrowhead.
