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.
