Onthetracksof007.com, managed and run by long-time FSWL friend/supporter Martijn Mulder, celebrates 25 years on the web during 2020 making it the oldest James Bond related website online. Over the years, Martijn has also published a World of Bond CD-rom (2007), a booklet and four books - On the Tracks of 007 (2008), Guide to Japan (2017), The Making Of OHMSS50 (2019) and Guide to Thailand (2020) - based on the original website content as well as new additions.
When James Bond was first introduced in 1962, a worldwide cinema audience entered a world beyond imagination. Exotic places like Jamaica, Istanbul, Japan, Thailand and the Bahamas became synonyms for 007's exciting adventures and an important part of the success formula. Nowadays, cheap international travel makes it possible for everyone to visit these locations and that is exactly what On the Tracks of 007 has encouraged people to do since 1995. It brings people as close to the locations as you can get, enabling them to relive their favourite James Bond scenes and travel the world within the turn of a page.
“Bond always travels in style. He goes to the most beautiful places and stays in the most luxurious hotels”, explains Mulder. “That’s what makes these filming locations such amazing holiday destinations.”
On the tracks of 007 started something that is every travel agent’s dream. It gave people completely new reasons to travel to these wonderful destinations. Movie location travelling has since become a hobby of many individuals, friends and families and On the Tracks of 007 contributed enormously to that.
