Don't just take our word for it, here are the thoughts of just a few members who have been bitten by the tour bug.
2019 Tour de Alpes, 2022 Porsche GT Tour, 2022 Tour des Alpes, 2023 Corsa Cavallino, 2023 Dolomites, 2024 Tour des Alpes.
That’s like picking my favourite child! 2019 Tour des Alpes was so special as it was my first Euro tour and I was absolutely blown away by the roads and I made friends for life. 2022 Porsche GT, I think you would struggle to get a better group of guys together and we had a blast. 2023 Corsa Cavallino, driving my Speciale through the infamous Ferrari factory gates is a memory I’ll cherish forever. 2024 Tour des Alpes was special to share with my daughter for passing her degree, until I turned off traction control and made her cry — bad daddy!
The dawn raiders drive on the 2022 Porsche GT tour will forever be my best drive though, chasing Adam up the Stelvio Pass in his 997 GT3, me in my 997 GT3 RS. We got to the end, high-fived and hugged, both admitting there was nothing left in the tank, we gave it our all. Well, I was holding a bit back but didn’t want to upset him!
The Supercar Driver team, the people, the cars, the roads, the amazing hotels, the beers, the laughs, and Jonty’s menu choices.
2024 Porsche GT Alpes
I think it has to be the first day, the day I arrived at Lake Annecy. I was excited because it was my first tour and to pull into the car park and see a dozen plus GT cars (not everyone had turned up yet), made me realise how special this trip was going to be.
The tour as a whole was so special. Putting into words how I felt meeting all the people on the tour, the driving, the hotels, the tour leaders, the scenery, the food, the organisation of everything is really difficult. It was wonderful to put my trust in the Supercar Driver team and go with the flow. I could just relax and know it was all taken care of.
It really was an amazing holiday first and foremost but the driving was out of this world, which is I suppose the main reason for the holiday in the first place! The in-car communication from Adam at the front was amazing and put my mind at rest so I could concentrate on the road and nothing else.
I would recommend Supercar Driver tours to anyone who has been contemplating one because you really won't regret it. There is a problem though, and that is you will want to go on them all!
2019, 2022, 2023, 2024 Dolomites, 2020 Tour des Alpes, 2022 Highland Hoon, 2024 Croatia, 2025 Mil Milas Espana
We joined Supercar Driver early in 2019 and a spot came up as a cancellation on Dolomites 2019. We looked at the itinerary and thought wow, we didn’t need convincing. That tour is what got us hooked!
It was surreal. At first, diving on the Autobahn to the Interalpen was nerve-racking, but from then on, this holiday became one of our best ever, and one we will never forget. We met life-long friends and larger-than-life characters, and we had the latest supercars at the time like SVJ, Pista, GT3 RS, even a LaFerrari, and Jonty Bond in a DB11 who led our group and made the tour so much fun. Driving into the Interalpen drive-through reception in a Ferrari is a memory I’ll never forget, and we can’t see that first tour ever being topped, although every tour we have done has been absolutely amazing.
The people on the tours make it, the places we go to are fabulous and being able to do things we can’t do on UK roads.
2018 Highland Hoon, 2019 Tartan Florio, 2019 Tour des Alpes, 2021 Porsche GT, 2022 Highland Hoon, 2023 Porsche GT, 2024 Borders
In my nearly seven years of Supercar Driver membership and having joined many tours, my favourite jaunt is probably still my first, which was the 2018 Highland Hoon, being led by Jonty on mythical Scottish roads such as Applecross and Old Military Road. My favourite memory is of driving up the A87 on Skype on the first day in my new AMG GT S, looking to the right to see and hear supercars screaming up the mountain on the opposite side of the loch, thinking, “Is this real?!”.
The 2019 Tartan Florio was another great one including the infamous airborne Lotus ‘splitter incident’ — great fun! I also met some fab car folk who I still hang out with today!
The cars and locations are mega but it’s got to be the people and the shared experiences that make the tours so special, followed closely by the stuff created by the talented media teams. They’re fantastic images and videos of you and your car to treasure into old age! Oh, and the Supercar Driver team are pretty good too!
2021 Isle of Man, 2021 Wales, 2022 Wales, UK93 2022, 2023 Wales, 2023 UK23, 2024 Wales, 2024 Borders
The Borders tour is always one of my favourites and 2024 was my third year in a row. As I live in Hampshire, we always get a group of us from the south to travel up the day before and this year we went one better, meeting up with a few of the northern chaps en route to convoy to the first hotel where Michael’s new Aston Martin Valour sat front and centre.
We had some great drives and cool stops for coffee and lunch, including a tour of the Pirelli factory, and spent two nights at Schloss Roxburghe, one of my favourite hotels where the staff are supercar fans, before the final day took us south over the North Pennines on some of my favourite roads.
As with the Borders Tour, for Wales 2024, a few of us Southerners travelled up together, and the tour took us deep into Wales with some amazing roads and great scenery, if you dare to take your eyes off the road that is! We stopped at one of my favourite lunch stops, Hafod Hotel at Devils Bridge Waterfalls, and Llangoed Hall Hotel, our hotel which we take over for the night, is a great place and the circular car park in front of the hotel makes for a great Instagram shot.
Day two took in some of my favourite Welsh roads, with an ice cream stop at Bala alongside the lake, and then northwest past another lake, the name of which I can’t pronounce, before heading over the mountains towards Betws-y-Coed, made for another fantastic Wales tour (my fourth) with a great group of friends as well as Will’s photos from halfway up a hillside to make it savour the memories.
There’s a lot I love about the tours but the main one is the well-planned routes which get us onto some amazing roads with the views to go with them. The locations we stop at for coffee breaks make all the difference for an enjoyable day behind the wheel too.
The team organise things well in a relaxed fashion and does a super job of leading, the media team (usually hiding in bushes en route) gets some awesome photos for us to savour. Sharing these tours with existing friends and meeting new ones (tours tend to be a healthy mixture of both) is what makes them all the more enjoyable.
