Dubrovnik

"Game of Thrones" is so wildly popular that when Season 4 premiered earlier this week, it caused HBO Go to crash. That's a lot of love for a TV show.

Fans can now relive scenes from the show by visiting some of its filming locations. Several tour companies are now offering "Game of Thrones" trips that take travelers around Croatia.

Tour operator Viator is offering a one-day walking tour of Dubrovnik - which became King's Landing in Season 2 - for around $80, while another company, Collete, provides a 12-day Discover Croatia tour with "Game of Thrones" highlights, starting at $2,149.

Tour operators are getting creative to make their tours stand out. Zicasso curated a week-long excursion that includes a visit to the city of Split, a new Season 4 location, and a lesson in falconry - relevant, since falcons play an important part in "Game of Thrones" folklore. The Zicasso tour starts at $3,200.

"Our guides are experts on Croatia, and they're also big fans of the show," Brian Tan, founder and CEO of Zicasso, told Business Insider. "They have a deep understanding of the show. Because they're all local, they've also seen the filming taking place when the crew is there and they have stories to share with travelers."
