Wir erwarten Sie bis zum späten Vormittag am Flughafen Verona und begleiten Sie zu Ihrem schicken Hotel A-Rosa südlich von Salò. Im Anschluss präsentieren wir Ihnen „Ihre“ Mercedes-Benz, welche Sie auf einer Einführungsstrecke durch das Lugana-Weinanbaugebiet kennen lernen. Im Traditionsweingut Perla del Garda besichtigen wir die Kelleranlagen und verkosten Lugana-Weine aus der eigenen Produktion.
Nach dem Frühstück fahren wir ein kurzes Stück am See entlang in den Norden, verlassen aber die Gardesana und fahren westlich in die Berge. Auf einsamen Bergstraßen mit engen Serpentinen und weitab vom Trubel des Gardasees erkunden Sie unentdeckte Ecken im Hinterland des Gardasees. Vorbei am stillen Lago di Valvestino erreichen Sie den Lago d`Idro um die Mittagszeit. Die Nachmittagsstrecke führt Sie zurück zum Lago di Valvesino und weiter zur Uferstraße bei Gargnano. Den Abend läuten wir ein bei einem gemeinsamen Aperitivo auf der Hotelterrasse.
Nach dem Frühstück und dem Tourbook-Briefing starten Sie über Gargnano in das bergige Hinterland des Gardasees. Auf schmalen, verkehrsarmen Landstraßen führt die Strecke über endlose Serpentinen der Alpe di Garda bis nach Limone. Nach einem Kaffeestopp auf der Promenade von Limone führt die Uferstraße bis nach Riva del Garda, die nördlichste Stadt am Gardasee bietet sich heute als individueller Mittagsstopp an. Auf der Rückfahrt besuchen wir per Boot die zauberhafte Isola del Garda. Abends begleiten wir Sie zum eleganten Abschiedsabendessen in der Villa Arcadio, in den Hügeln hoch über dem Gardasee.
Today marks the start of the "world's most beautiful race" in Brescia. After breakfast and check-out, we’ll take you to the heart of Brescia. Pre-war cars will be lined up on Viale Venezia hours before the official start, giving you the perfect chance to get close to these exclusive sports cars and their drivers. Military bands will play the Italian anthem, and the aerobatic team "Frecce Tricolori" will color the sky with the national colors. The excitement builds as nearly 400 teams set off from the starting ramp onto the city circuit, offering plenty of time to chat about cars and admire the vintage beauties. We’ll then transfer you to Verona Airport or back to your hotel if you’ve chosen to extend your stay.

It is one-third smaller than Lake Constance, but still the largest lake in Italy and is the dream spot of many holidaymakers from up north for decades: Lake Garda or "Lago di Garda," as the locals call it. The 150 km long coastline is shared by three Italian regions, Lombardy in the west, Veneto in the east, and the region of Trentino-South Tyrol in the north. The year-round mild climate make this lake feel so predestine along the southern edge of the Alps as a holiday destination. Mild winters, hot summers and an annual average temperature of 15°C (~63°F) are also the reason why there are some very well-known wine-growing areas around the lake. To the east of the lake, known as the 'Riviera degli Olivi,' the Bardolino and Soave area, in the southeast towards Verona the Valpolicella, and in the south near Desenzano del Garda the Lugana are all many vast growing areas.
Lake Garda looks back on a long and eventful history, from the pile dwellings in the area of today's Torbole (now a World Heritage Site) to the Romans, who defended themselves against invaders from the north during the time of the Great Migration, to the Middle Ages, as the Lords of Verona who have built Scaligeri, castles in the eastern and south-eastern areas. The struggle for supremacy between the Doges of Venice and the Milanese Visconti, when the former had a series of galleys transported from the Adige Valley over the mountains and ultimately won the day, became legendary at the beginning of modern times. The French and Habsburgs later fought here, and the decisive battle of Solferino in 1859 near the south bank paved the way for the unification of Italy. It only became politically explosive shortly before the end of the Second World War, when the deposed fascist leader Mussolini founded the “Repubblica Sociale.” Now, since the 1950s, “conquerors” have been coming from abroad with much more peaceful intentions - as vacationers.
A large part of the visitors to Lake Garda come in July and August, the choice of the routes therefore makes it possible to slow down and relax behind the wheel of our vintage cars at the start of the “Mille Miglia” in June. Panoramic routes such as the “Gardesana” on the “Riviera dei Limoni” alternate with remote mountain routes around Monte Baldo, which are mainly for mountain bikers and climbers. Visits such as the “Vittoriale” in Salò or tastings round off the program, which comes to an end in neighboring Brescia with the start of the “most beautiful race in the world”, the “corsa più bella del mondo”.
