Driving tour in Europe- July 2025

[R33FAL]

I am looking at booking a driving tour with either my GT3 or Spyder RS in summer (July) for a week, with an organised group. Flexible on location but ideally Southern France or Spain/Portugal. Wondered if anyone had any recommendations for companies/people to reach out to on it- looking for "enthusiastic" driving, great roads, good cars to ogle at at, and perhaps 1 or 2 nights of nightlife.

Hi if you look on the Holidays & Travel page there are lots of places on there, we travel twice a year and stay in 8 to 10 different hotels each time and been doing it for 30 years all booked up for May. Try to visit here if you want a motoring experience.

V Events are pretty good - I am not sure what their 2025 calendar is yet.

I am off to Provence for 3 weeks in my 911 in July - but not with a group. Can't wait.

I often think about tours, but eventually, I shy away.

I guess my fear is that all the others are total flutes (I guess they might think that of me too).

I went on an Aston Martin Owners Club tour in Yorkshire. Ninety-five percent of people were wearing AM-branded clothing and seemed to have little to talk about other than their AM. As the weather was a bit sh!t, most of them sacked off the driving bit and went straight to the lunch destination.

Should I think again and go with a random group?

No. Your instincts are absolutely to be trusted.

Being holed up with a load of "I am considerably reecher than yow" people in red trousers would be days of your life never to be recovered.

Unless you know and enjoy the company of at least another couple, the risk is too great.

This was a nice trip down through France then down the center of Spain return along the south coast then up to Andorra then home through France.

OP, go onto the Roads section of PH, you'll find all the info you need there.

Here is another interesting place to visit part of our history.
