In 1962, James Bond debuted on the big screen in Dr. No and set a cinematic standard as globe-trotting secret agent 007. From London to Jamaica and beyond, Bond's adventures have spanned the globe, taking viewers to over a hundred real-life locations over the past six decades.
In James Bond Destinations, discover the iconic locations that have played a central role in Bond's jet-setting travels. Each chapter offers insider insights and unforgettable scenes, such as Ursula Andress emerging from Jamaican waters, Daniel Craig's high-speed chase in Rome and Roger Moore's epic showdown on a cable car at Sugar Loaf Mountain in Rio.
In the early to mid-1960s, when international travel was still a rarity, Bond films captivated audiences, awakening dreams of glamorous vacations and cementing the series as a reliable guide to adventure. Barbara Broccoli, the daughter of the original Bond producer, remembers how her father wanted to whisk people away on magical adventures.
As travel became more accessible, the Bond experience evolved to stay at the forefront. Producers like Michael G. Wilson discovered new, unfamiliar locations or transformed familiar places into spectacular settings, ensuring that each Bond film continued to deliver the thrill of discovery
