In 1962, James Bond made his big screen debut in Dr. No, setting a cinematic standard as the globe-trotting secret agent 007. From London to Jamaica and beyond, Bond's adventures have spanned the globe, taking audiences to over a hundred real-life locations over the past six decades.
In James Bond Destinations, explore the iconic locations that have played a key role in Bond's jet-setting journeys. Each chapter offers insider insights and unforgettable scenes, such as Ursula Andress emerging from Jamaican waters, Daniel Craig's high-speed car chase in Rome, and Roger Moore's epic showdown on a Sugarloaf cable car in Rio.
In the early to mid-1960s, when international travel was a rarity, Bond films captivated audiences, inspired dreams of glamorous holidays and cemented the franchise as a trusted guide to adventure. Barbara Broccoli, daughter of the original Bond producer, recalls how her father wanted to take people on magical adventures.
As travel became more accessible, the Bond experience evolved to stay ahead of the curve. Producers like Michael G. Wilson found new, unseen locations or transformed familiar ones into spectacular settings, ensuring that each Bond film continued to deliver the thrill of exploration. For example, the streets of Rome in Spectre required meticulous blocking, and Venice's Grand Canal was closed for the first time in centuries for Casino Royale, allowing Daniel Craig's Bond to sail unimpeded.
