Overview

Our tour for movie buffs! Pittsburgh is known as the city where the three rivers meet - but it also features the convergence of some of the biggest moments in film history, from the earliest days of the moviemaking industry to groundbreaking independent films and big blockbusters. This history owes much to the city’s role as a hub of industry, its unique architecture and geography, and tax incentives that made location shooting in Pittsburgh an appealing prospect for Hollywood. This tour will take you through the historic Downtown and into the famous filming locations from some of your favorite movies! This is your opportunity to walk in the footsteps of zombies and Batman. Come and discover Pittsburgh’s important role in the film industry’s past and present - and get inspired for future movie nights! Flashdancing is optional, but recommended. Our tour guides are locals who truly love their city, very knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile. Kids and dogs are welcome as well!
