World's most expensive driving tour puts thrillseekers behind the wheel of a £1.4million Bugatti Veyron... for the bargain price of £80,000


comments

The world's most expensive driving tour is offering adrenaline junkies the chance to hop behind the wheel of some of the fastest supercars on the planet – for just a fraction of the purchase price.

Holidaymakers with a need for speed each get a turn driving a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse during the five-day tour of southern Germany and northern Switzerland.

The trip costs €110,000 (approximately £80,000 or $125,000) for 10 people, or about £8,000 ($12,500) per person, which is far less than the £1.4million ($2.1million) price tag for a brand new Bugatti.

It is also available at €64,000 (£48,000 or $72,000) for two people. 

In addition to a Bugatti, thrillseekers who take part in the tour are given the opportunity to drive a Lamborghini Aventador, Lamborghini Huracan, Ferrari 488 GTB and Mercedes-Benz AMG GTS.

Brand new, the cars have a combined value of more than £2million ($3million).

When drivers aren't zooming through scenic areas they are being treated to imaginative dishes at Michelin-starred restaurants, overnight stays in junior suites at five-star hotels and limousine transfers.

Those who book the trip are flown into Stuttgart, Germany, where they stay at the Althoff Hotel am Schlossgarten.

The following day they are given private tours of the Porsche and Mercedes-Benz factory museums before a 50-mile 'warm-up' drive from the German spa town of Baden Baden.

After spending the night at the Brenners Park-Hotel & Spa the drivers get their first full day on the road, travelling more than 150 miles through forest trails and mountain passes in the Black Forest range before crossing the Rhine river into Switzerland.

From there guests go on a private tour of the IWC watch factory and finish the day at Riva's Das Hotel am Bodensee on the German side of Lake Constance.

On day four the drivers make the 185-mile drive back to Baden Baden, using a stretch of the derestricted German autobahn with a stop for lunch at the three Michelin-starred Schwarzwaldstube at Hotel Traube Tonbach.

The trip culminates with a 60-mile loop of the Black Forest – giving each driver about 450 miles behind the wheel of a supercar.
