Here, you’ve got four Bond films and their French destinations so you too can discover France like an MI-6 spy.
Moonraker: Vaux-le-Vicomte Château (Ile de France) – The 17th century chateau is said that to have been the inspiration for the great Palace of Versailles and is near the beautiful Fontainebleau Chateau.
A View to a Kill: Chantilly Château (Picardie) – Recently renovated in 2009, the 15th century chateau not only sits in a beautiful forest, but its art gallery, housed in the Musée Condé, has one of the finest collections of historical paintings in France.
Diamonds are Forever: Hotel du Cap – Eden – Roc (Riviera) – The hotel dates back to the late 19th century and is in Antibes, a palm-tree lined town with a beautiful harbour to boot and a coast dotted with beautiful little villages.
The World is Not Enough: Chamonix (Rhone-Alps) – Chamonix is widely popular for both skiers and non skiers alike. Although its slopes are world class, it’s also got a wide range of activities possible.
