Visit these breathtaking locales for a real-world GameofThrones vacation

The final stretch of Game of Thrones is upon us, but you don't have to end your enjoyment with the show's May 19 finale: A new feature on the travel app Hopper lets fans locate their favorite Game of Thrones shooting sites, as well as the cheapest flights to each area.

Hopper tip: Fly into Reykjavik. Prices are down from last year, but are expected to rise since the collapse of WOW Airlines.Northern Ireland and Scotland are home to many of the greatest moments at Winterfell. Want to visit the Starks ancestral home? Head to Doune Castle, about an hour outside Edinburgh. A day trip from Edinburgh is an easy option, but if you want to stay local, book a night at a local bed and breakfast like the Glenardoch House.

For a taste of Irish hospitality, book a room at the Bushmills Inn, which dates back to the 1600s. It's near the natural wonder known as Giant's Causeway, an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic eruption. Continue enjoying the coast by staying at nearby Castillo de Arteaga, a 13th century castle with 21st century amenities.

Once in Marrakesh, you can drive or take a bus to Ouarzazate, a.k.a. Pentos, where Danaerys first encounters Khal Drogo in Season 1 and where Tyrion finally meets Daenerys after fleeing Westeros in Season 5.
