A New Travel Concept
We are proud to offer a new travel concept; an innovative approach to the self-drive tour offering
absolute luxury combined with the ultimate Gran Turismo experience.
These tours are unique journeys, individually created for you to fully experience the Italian
Way of Life. Each journey is a sublime blend of art, fashion, architecture, gastronomy and
spectacular scenery.
Our guests will feel part of a real Ferrari team, enjoying the opportunity to personally drive the
very latest models. Travelling for kilometres, accelerating through the steep, winding roads of
Lazio, Umbria and Tuscany, along the route of the legendary Mille Miglia race, putting their
driving skills to the ultimate test.
As a relaxing contrast to the exhilaration of driving a Ferrari, our journeys include wellness
programmes at the Fonteverde Tuscan Resort & Spa, a world-class spa hotel located in the
midst of the rolling hills of the Val d’Orcia.
Behind the scenes, Red Travel staff take complete care of the Ferraris. Every morning, our guests
will find their car at the entrance of the hotel, clean and polished, refuelled and fully checked,
ready to begin another day of exciting driving through further dazzling landscapes.
