Day 1
Your personal driver meets you at Pisa or Florence airports (other airports available on request) and transports you to our starting base at Lucca where you will be shown around your chosen vehicle, have the route and navigation system explained and any questions answered by the CDT member of staff.
The afternoon drive takes you north into the Apennines with a general heading for Bologna. Before arriving in Bologna however we will be turning through 170º in order to reach the famous Raticosa and Futa passes, some of the roads of the old Mille Miglia race. You will revel in the 60km of truly stunning roads, and you will certainly understand why this has been a favourite amongst drivers for decades.
The destination is a hotel is an old Medici Villa that has been extensively restored and then furnished in a style that blends the ancient structure with a contemporary style.
For people taking our Platinum package we will be reserving one of the hotel's suites.
Estimated driving distance today: 150km

Day 2
The heading is back to the north but we are talking another pass, the Giogo, taking you up to Imola at which point we strongly suggest juming on te autostrada for your heading into Maranello. We are happy to book a table at the Cavallino restaurant opposite the factory gates or a less known but really interesting rstaurant run by the man who was the Ferrari F1 team chef for many years. If you feel like a stop at the Galleria Ferrari tickets are included n the tour price. From Maranello you can eoither jump onto the autostrada fora few km or stay on the old road. The destination for the evening is the hotel that will form the base for the next three days/nights, offering a calm oasis away from the colours and sounds of the race cars of the Silver Flag event.
The hotel is a stylish country property that is very comfortably appointed. There is a Wellness centre with jacuzzi, steam rooms and massage facilities available, to make sure your stay is relaxing!
The hotel has its own restaurant serving a contemporary take on the traditional dishes of the region and we will be booking your first night here. We can also provide other restaurant suggestions/reservations for the next couple of evenings.
Platinum customers, as expected, get upgraded to a suite.
Estimated driving distance today: 100-250km
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Days 3 & 4
It has been planned that you will spend at least some time watching the racing, however if you prefer you may spend the day driving on on e of our pre-prepared routes or make your own way around. Alternatively the day can be filled with driving, using the hotel Spa facilities. We have a number of possible routes programmed into the GPS and are happy to give advice where required
At the end of the day you will return to the same hotel for a second and third night
Estimated driving distance today: 100-200km
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 5
The last full day of driving takes south through the mountains along the SS45 towards Genoa, a really technical 50 km of driving! A little before Genoa we will send you left in order to cut the city driving out.
We suggest a stop for lunch is Sestri Levante before the last driver's section before your return to Lucca. The Passo del Bracco is another of the Mythical routes of Italy with some huge panoramic views down to the glistening Mediterranean below.
Once you have descended the Bracco there is a 40 minute autostrada section to finish off your drive.
The final hotel is the location where your trip started just a few days ago, just a couple km south of Lucca.
Dinner is booked in the hotel’s restaurant.
