Press Release Summary: The recently increased public exposure of Lake Garda in Italy
due to the shooting of the latest James Bond movie will probably lead to a higher
tourist influx.

Press Release Body: The shooting for the latest venturesome James Bond movie
"Quantum of Solace" is in full swing at Lake Garda in Italy. The news of 007's
iconic Aston Martin accidentally plunging into the Lake and another accident
involving two stuntmen led to increased public exposure of popular tourist
destinations at Lake Garda, e.g. Gargnano, Limone sul Garda and Malcesine that are
currently being used, amongst others, as fascinating sceneries for explosions, wild
car chases and glamourous cocktail parties. Moreover, an interesting social
programme with a special James Bond exhibition, culinary events providing delicacies
linked to the Bond movies and a conference dealing with the issue of film-induced
tourism at Lake Garda, accompanies the filming.

Indeed it is expected that tourist numbers will increase at Lake Garda due to the
publicity the region has had so far during the shoot. Additionally, the showcase of
these popular tourist sceneries in the movie itself will again increase public
awareness of these regions and might therefore lead to an increased tourist influx.

Tourists inspired by the Bond movie can discover the film locations, treat
themselves to a shaken Martini at the shores of the Lago di Garda at sunset or
simply enjoy the beautiful scenery. Holistay, a brand new online rental agency for
holiday houses with more than 50,000 objects all over Europe, is prepared for that
development and features many holiday homes of different categories all around Lake
Garda.
