The Peruvian mountainside at the beginning of Aguirre Wrath of God! Plenty of CGI in Prometheus but could barely compete with the dramatic landscape of Iceland.
The Before Trilogy lets you travel through the same places as Jesse and Céline, it captures the feeling of being truly present in a specific time and place.
Honorable mention to Paris Can Wait, not a great movie overall, but it offers a beautiful sense of exploration and appreciation for the journey itself.
The way John Ford portrayed Ireland in "The Quiet Man" (it deservedly won him one of his directing Oscars). He and the majority of the cast members were of Gaelic ancestry, so it's a bit of a more authentic portrayal than most that way. But it was the on location background shots of the Emerald Isle that really makes it impressive.
“Middle Earth” in New Zealand gets my vote here, especially as I’ve been to New Zealand before & experienced it myself. It’s absolutely mindblowing 😜😜😜
