Whats everyone's favorite Bond destination?

I found this cool thing on twitter which shows where James Bond has been over the years and it got me thinking about my favorite places he's been.

This site shows the individual Bond actors and where they went, as well as the transport and the time it took which is nice.

What are everyone's thoughts on the piece and where is your favorite Bond destination and why?

    That site is fantastic! My personal fav has always been Nassau in Thunderball/Casino Royale. I went there on my honeymoon to see the locations. Of the others I'd probably say Sardinia in TSWLM or Shanghai in Skyfall.

    I love cities so from the places that I've visited I rank Amsterdam, London, Paris, Hong Kong very high.

    +1 Agree on Nassau and Sardinia. {[] We went to the latter on our honeymoon :)

    Disagree on Shanghai in Skyfall though. It did nothing for me.

    My other favourite locations would be, London, Piz Gloria, The Furka Pass, Siena, Lake Garda, Rome, Cortina, Rio de Janeiro,

    I guess favourite locations ties in with favourite scenes in many respects.

    It did nothing for you because it was England. Daniel Craig didn't go anywhere near China in Skyfall.

    I have not really had a chance to visit anywhere outside the UK, so I think I'd have to say Venice.

    Sir Sean, Sir Roger and Mr Craig's Bonds have all been there. If I could afford to get there it might mean Lake Como might be on the cards too.
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    Moore went to Italy three films in a row (if you count Sardinia). Victor Tourjansky worked (and drank) there on all three!

    I really like the New York locations in LALD because I know them. I'm sure to never roll down my windows when driving down the FDR drive!

    Istanbul in FRWL is fantastic, but it doesn't do anything for me in SF. I also love Udaipur in OP and Vienna in TLD. It's the cities that do it for me.
