Team Jacob will approve of the trip to Montepulciano and this photo.

If you get bloodthirsty for Twilight, plan a vacation with some bite through CheapOair. In time for Halloween, the website is offering vampire-themed travel packages that include flight and a hotel in cities right out of the Twilight books and films.

The best spot for Twilighters to visit is Vancouver. Not only is the coastal city home to many of the vamps in the saga, it's also where the cast is filming the third installment in the series, Eclipse. So you just might be able to run into—or stalk—the gorgeous Robert Pattinson around town. The package includes a stay at Plaza 500 Hotel, starting at $95 a night.

More Twi-travel packages after the jump.

Twilight Cast To Fend Off the Volturi in Italy

May 20, 2009 at 9:46 AM | by | Comments (0)

While Robert Pattinson may have just landed in Cannes for the film festival, word is that the cast and crew of the new Twilight movie, New Moon, will leave their Vancouver set soon and head to Montepulciano, Italy to film the movie's crucial showdown with the Volterra vampire faction called, the Volturi.

In real life, Volterra does exist but the Montepulicano is being used instead as the stand-in. (Much like Vancouver is being used instead of Forks, Wash.) The vampire-free town (we think) is located in southern Tuscany, about an hour from Siena.

According to its website, the Twilight folk will roll into town the last week of May to start filming scenes. Considering Volterra/Montepulicano is where Edward Cullen bursts out into the sunlight to kill himself, we expect the movie will have no problem getting extras to film its "crowd scenes" in its Palazzo dei Priori which we are guessing will be filmed instead at the Palazzo Comunale. Also for Twilight geeks, Saint Marcus Day has already passed.
