Lake Maggiore was magical. The setting was more than I expected. Day 2 drive up to Lago d’Orta was lovely. The dappled sunlight through the trees and the gorgeous greenery. And then the lake itself and the magesty of the mountains around us. Mezmerizing. Although times precarious, the drive to Locarno was breathtaking, literally at time as we rounded a corner the view was indescribable. And when we came upon the festival in the town just south of the midpoint stop (Rainbow disco church as we called it). Ascona was my favorite stop.

It was an absolute delight and privilege having partaken in your Tuscany tour. Both my partner Rebecca and I weren’t too sure how regimented or strict things would be ( and justifiably so given the nature and rarity of the vehicles) and were just super impressed how generous your company is in letting us drive on such long excursions with these lovely cars. Also the added attention to details like wine tasting and tours of some of the towns was fantastic and a lovely bonus. Secondly the accommodation that you have selected is fantastic. The Borgo Scopeto Relais felt really special and was a perfect backdrop to the splendor of your cars showcased in that environment. Your cars are absolutely lovely. Beautifully presented and the ones that I selected during the tour being the metallic green 280SL , the baby blue Pagoda, the silver 300SL and the copper colored 250 pagoda were just sensational both in presentation and performance. Truely a dream come true. Additionally Alex, Noel and Khari were absolutely fantastic. Bexs and I were so impressed with their demeanour … all professional, kind , polite and attentive. Honestly, we could not fault them and really enjoyed their company. A big thank you for your selection of lovely staff. We absolutely loved everything about it and I congratulate your company for providing such a unique and wonderful experience.

It was our first trip to Italy, and we feel it was a much more real taste of the country than we’d ever experience following a traditional tourist itinerary. Driving classic cars through the mountains, valleys, and lakeshore was incredible — we saw so many people looking at us jealously! But as great as the cars and countryside were, the people made the tour special. We appreciated the support of the Nostalgic team. We quickly bonded with fellow travelers and anticipate staying in contact. Not only are we considering our next trip with Nostalgic, I’m thinking of scenic routes to plot in my home region — both for my enjoyment and for friends. You’ve inspired me!
