LTK2009 "Licence to Kill" Anniversary Tour PDF Print E-mail

The LTK 2009 "Licence to Kill" Anniversary tour was a week-long cruise aboard the Carnival Freedom, with ports of call in Key West, Grand Cayman and Ocho Rios, Jamaica. It was a natural itinerary for our desire to create a homage to the anniversary date of Timothy Dalton's 007 outing in 1989's "Licence to Kill".

Our journey began in Fort Lauderdale for a evening luau at the Mai Kai, a very famous Polynesian restaurant built in the fifties during the Tiki craze. From there we boarded our ship to Key West, enjoying the company of "Q" stunt double and boat coordinator for "Licence to Kill", Captain Bill Grosscup as we visited the film locations from the 1989 film. On board, we had several Bond mixers, including a Vesper Martini tasting. LeChiffre hosted our Texas Hold'm Tournament, there wasn't a dry red eye in the house.

"LIve and Let Die".Our trip aboard ended with a challenging Trivia event that engaged all levels of Bond fans and we said our farewells top-side for late night champagne and a screening of "Quantum of Solace", courtesy of our friends at Carnival Cruises.
