Here’s an inside look at the first official Game of Thrones Studio Tour set in Northern Ireland

The ongoing covid pandemic crisis has forced several projects and businesses to shut down and delay. The effects of the Red Wedding year 2020 are still felt to this day, but there’s some good news for Game of Thrones fans. After being delayed for more than a year, the Game of Thrones official studio tour is finally here, and it’s right around the corner.

The tour will be open to the general public from 4th February this Friday. Independent’s Simon Calder was provided exclusive access to the studio tour and we get to see glimpses of what’s in store for fans who wish to visit the attraction in near future.

The attraction recreates some of the key settings – including Dragonstone, the castle on the island off the east coast of Westeros. The Chamber of the Painted Table has been recreated with a vast and intricate map. Visitors will be able to walk through the actual film set for the Great Hall at Winterfell, which the new attraction has been built around.

The centerpiece of the Game of Thrones Studio Tour is the original set for the Great Hall at Winterfell, where the aristocracy and heroes gather. In the crypt of Winterfell, you can get up close and personal with characters such as Jon Snow, and inspect the giant skulls of ancient dragons that populate the depths of the Red Keep at King’s Landing.

With Covid restrictions still blighting international travel, overseas visitors may have to wait a little longer to travel to Northern Ireland. Do you plan on visiting the official Game of Thrones studio tour? Talk to us in the comments below!
