Eon Productions is offering a one-time-only chance for 60 people to holiday like James Bond across Europe. You can hang out with the people responsible for oscar-winning special effects, take a speedboat up the Thames and see Oddjob's lethal bowler hat. Prices start at $15,000.

... [+]If you've ever wanted to ski down the same slopes as James Bond does in Spectre or take a speedboat along the river Thames as he did in The World Is Not Enough, the company behind all 25 official Bond films, Eon Productions, has granted rights to one company to offer James Bond holidays across Europe in the places where they were filmed.

There are 31 experiences on offer from the company Black Tomato, including a 12-night trip across London, Paris, Monaco, Lake Como, Venice and the Austrian Alps in what is being called The Assignment. This is the most luxurious trip, costing $74,000. There are also other experiences, starting at $15,000, where fans can speak to the people involved in making the films over the years. For example, fans could climb the Eiffel Tower and ask questions of actress Carole Ashby, who starred in Octopussy and A View To A Kill, about her time working on the sets with Roger Moore . Or you could quiz Lee Morrisson, who has been a stuntman on the Bond sets since Casino Royale, on the tricks behind the best Bond falls and escapes.

Black Tomato co-founder Tom Marchant has spent a long time orchestrating these experiences by bringing together crafts people and artists who worked on the movies. Previously, Marchant has had success crafting journeys that follow the books of Agatha Christie and hethat these experiences offer the chance to"bring proximity to 007 in a way that hasn’t been done before."

It is also possible to view the most famous props with Eon archivist Meg Simmonds, who could show you Oddjob's metal-rimmed bowler hat from Goldfinger, the Fabergé eggs that feature heavily in the plot for Octopussy and of course, Scaramanga's famous golden gun from The Man With The Golden Gun.
