Tenet Movie Tour Guided by a Background Actor

About this activity

Welcome to the Tenet shooting locations tour, guided by a Tenet background actor!

Did you know that Tallinn played a major role in Tenet? The city appeared not only as itself, but also as Kyiv and Oslo. During this unique experience, you’ll visit several of the film’s key shooting locations and uncover Estonia's Soviet past.

Your tour guide worked side by side with Christopher Nolan and his crew during the filming of Tenet’s explosive opening sequence. He’ll share his experiences as a background actor, show you some rare screen-used props, and tell you a few fun facts about this underrated movie.

An absolute dream tour for Tenet fans and history lovers alike!

Note: On the shorter version of the tour (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday), we’ll take the tram twice to travel between locations — just as the heroes did in Tenet. On the longer version (Wednesday and Sunday) we’ll also take the bus twice. These rides are short, and tickets are included in the tour price.
