The first James Bond movie was released on October 5, 1962, and the latest, Skyfall, the 23rd in the series, featuring Daniel Craig as James Bond and Javier Bardem as Raoul Silva, the film's villain, will be released in the UK on October 26. On the 50th anniversary of James Bond films, The Charles Hotel Munich is giving you a chance to be the super secret agent for a day.

"We wanted to give our guests a special and unique experience this year, so we've created our James Bond 007 package," says Frank Heller, general manager, The Charles Hotel Munich.

"Imagine you can be James Bond for one day, experience all the adventures and luxury goods that James Bond does. It will be a unique experience, tailor-made to the guest's choice and physical ability. From helicopter rides to the Alps to bungee jumping to jetskiing — each category has two to three options to choose from. And there is always a mission behind it. Either you have to rescue a hostage or fight somebody. It will be a full-day adventure, but safety comes first and we will make sure of it."

But that's not all. The whole day you will be followed by a professional filming crew which will be shooting all your antics. "So you make your own James Bond film, which you can show to friends and family," Heller says.

Some of the adventures you can look forward to are eruptions in your room, riding in a fully equipped control room/black van to the heliport, from where you fly to the German-Swiss border, secret messages on USBs, fighting with the bad guys on trikes and flying dragons. Of course, all this is not child's play, so there's an age limit. But no pre-qualifications are required.

"You have to be 18 plus for safety reasons. This is not for children. Also, there will be only one James Bond each day, so we can focus all our efforts and attention on this one person only," Heller explains. "But anybody and everybody is qualified. We have a variety of adventures to choose from, depending on the physical capabilities and state of health of the person. We don't want anyone to push beyond their limits, because we want them to enjoy themselves. The adventures may be based on the movie, but the guest decides what direction he wishes to take it."

He? So this is only for men?

"Women are, of course, welcome. If they are up to it, we have no problem at all. It took us four months to create this, and our first guest happens to be a man — but we are more than happy to accommodate female guests," Heller says.

The packages are available until the end of the year, costing approximately €60,000 (Dh289,450), depending on what package the guest selects. For more details and package reservations, call 8000650592 or write to reservations.charles@roccofortehotels.com
