The Clueless star, 48, shared photos of herself and her 13-year-old exploring Europe together after she had a break after filming her latest project, a new murder mystery drama series called Irish Blood.
"First stop... Germany! 🇩🇪 After being away from Bear to film Irish blood in Ireland, I was beyond happy that he flew to his mama," Silverstone captioned an Instagram carousel on Wednesday, Dec. 18.
Bear was front and center in the first photo, sitting in between a bronze statue of a monkey and the Batman & Robin actress, who stood next to him, resting her head on his shoulder.
"I had a break so we made the most of it by exploring all these beautiful places in Europe," she wrote, mentioning both in her location's geotag and the caption that she and her son were in Heidelberg, Germany.
The first statue they took a picture with is known as the Heidelberg Bridge Monkey, which dates back to the 15th century.
The next photo shows Bear walking alone while taking in the sights of a statue of three women.
