    I have been to a couple:

    Fountainebleu hotel in Miami,
    Venice grand canal and San Marco square
    Eiffeltower
    Amsterdam and Peter Franks house
    Mr Osato's office (10 minutes walking from home)
    All the Las Vegas hotels
    Bond Island in Thailand
    Floating markets in Bangkok
    Aya Sofia in Istanbul
    Bazaar in Istanbul
    Sugar loaf mountain in Rio
    Lago di Como, Italy
    Atlantic Hotel, Hamburg
    Vienna Prager park
    Fishermans wharf, San Francisco


    Than there are many cities I have visited where Bond also was: New York, Rome, London, and some more.

    My question is for the real experts:

    Does anyone know where the fight in Dick Henderson's garden took place in YOLT? And where Henderson's house was? Is it in Tokyo? Would be good to check these locations out. Next weekend I will visit the subway station where Bond first meets Tiger Tanaka :D

    Just been to Loch Craignish this easter where they filmed the final boat chase in FRWL. It was pretty cool. -{
    Now, they only eat rat.

    I've recently been to the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong :)

    Well, the driveway, anyway, where Bond was introduced to Mary Goodnight!

    Hello all. I am a newbie here on the forum. I have been to a few locations which have already been mentioned but next year I am off to Jamaica on holiday. I am wanting to track down as many locations as possible whilst I am there. The ones I know of are Dunns River Falls, Sans Souci Hotel and the Crocodile Farm. Can anyone else advise any other locations close to Ocho Rios?

    You have left out the most important place to visit GOLDE NEYE
    also when we was driving towards Dunns River Falls
    we past what looked like DR NOs factory/plant,

    Oh wow. That's awesome. We're exactly is that building? Near Pinewood?
  • CRBCRB Posts: 483MI6 Agent
    Chalfont St Peter, which is not far from Pinewood correct. They also filmed another scene in Thunderball where the guy walks into a Hotel (now a pub) which was filmed in Beaconsfield, a neighbouring village.

    I'm just curious is anyone has visited the lockup where Bond keeps the Aston Martin in Skyfall. It's in Deptford - not exactly the nicest part of London !

    Just the scene in LALD in New York where you see the Brooklyn Bridge in the background while Bond's driver is getting shot.

    And then I guess Harlem too.

    Hi Guys, just a question: I will go to Istanbul sometime next year for work for a week.
    I have been there before as a child and saw the Aya Sofia and the Bazaar, but this time I really want to go 'Bond scouting.'

    Anyone have an idea about the true locations of FRWL? where is the embassy of Russia, where does Tania meet Klebb, where does Bond enter the Bazaar and where in the Aya Sofia is the exchange of the Lector plans?

    Some help would be appreciated, thanks!

    I went to London, Istanbul, Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Piz Gloria, Eiffeltower and to Lake Garda.
    Don't confuse me with the other DutchBondFan, but be sure to follow his YouTube account. You can read my articles on James Bond Nederland: www.jamesbond.nl/author/gosse/

    DN - Dunn's River Falls, Jamaica
    TB - The Bahamas (no specific Bond filming location, though)
    DAF - Circus Circus, Las Vegas
    AVTAK - Golden Gate Bridge & Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco
    LTK - Hemingway House, Key West

    And a couple weeks ago, Dumaine & Chartres St, New Orleans where the agent in the PTS is watching the 'Filet of Soul' restaurant (which isn't there now, if it ever was) right before learning that the jazz funeral going by is his own.
