Oracabessa, Jamaica

Ian Fleming, a man who obviously had a few things figured out, spent 20 winters writing 17 James Bond novels here. Guests can stay in the three-bedroom Fleming House ($3,800 a night in high season), or in one of several nearby villas. The property is owned by Chris Blackwell, the founder of Island Records.

Khoa Phing Kan, Thailand

The home of Christopher Lee's space-age bachelor pad in The Man With The Golden Gun now welcomes day trippers from neighboring Phuket. Recreate the famous duel between Bond and the highly villainous Francisco Scaramanga, or pick up a ceramic buddha from a souvenir stand and be on your way. This spot is for hard-core fans only, but Kho Phi Phi (the beach from The Beach) is nearby.

London, England

At long last, a hotel package that involves an Aston Martin. For roughly three thousand dollars, the Plaza on the River will provide you and a loved one with a very nice suite, a private chef-prepared dinner in said suite, the keys to an Aston Martin DB7 Coupe, and a tuxedo fitting from a Savile Row tailor (you'll need it for the casino that evening). We need hardly mention the martini tray. The offer lasts through December.

Stoke Poges, UK

It was here, on the grounds of this baronial estate outside of London, that a grim-visaged henchman named Oddjob severed the head of a marble statue with a flying metal bowler hat. Sean Connery played an uncomfortable round of golf with Auric Goldfinger at the Stoke Park Club in 1964, and Pierce Brosnan was almost handicapped by the evil agent Stamper in the club's ballroom in 1997. Enjoy a round on this historic course (exposive golf balls not included), then retire to your five-star room to plot your next move. Maybe the spa.

Nassau, The Bahamas

Sean Connery took a well-deserved respite from battling SPECTRE here in Thunderball, then repeated the process in the semi-authorized remake Never Say Never Again. Salute the first film with Dom Perignon '55 by the pool, and the second with a vodka martini in the hotel's "Double O" Suite. The room comes fully stocked with all the requisite Fleming media: signed posters, DVDs, CDs and paperbacks. The man himself has a home nearby in Lyford Cay.

Deauville, France

The inspiration for the original Casino Royale, this stately establishment in Normandy has been calmly fleecing the créme de la créme for over 90 years. Kick off the evening with a round of baccarat before enjoying a martini and perhaps some healthy intrigue in Le Régine's nightclub. While formal attire is still required, the storied playground of Coco Chanel and Robert de Rothschild has bowed to the times, offering slot machines as well as "Le Poker Texas Hold'Em."

Ticino, Switzerland

In the opening scene of Goldeneye, Pierce Brosnan's stunt double executes a daring bungee jump off this incredibly large dam, and now you can too. Patrons drop roughly 720 feet in eight seconds -- the Guinness Book of World Records claims that this is the highest commercial bungee jump in the world. While the tickets are spendy (around $220), the price of admission includes a drink and a certificate. Book ahead -- this is Switzerland.

Tucson, Arizona

From the same company that brought us tandom HALO skydives, MiG dueling over Moscow, and "shark encounters," this covert ops training course promises 72 hours of pure adrenalin. Tyro spooks are put through their paces by a cadre of ex-Green Berets and real-deal, bona fide mercenary types. The syllabus: high-speed evasive driving, pistol shooting with intent to maim or kill, counter-surveillance techniques, and the fine art of booby traps.
