Conquer Legendary Mountain Passes
This region is famous for its high-altitude roads, each offering a unique challenge and reward. Think of the Stelvio Pass, a true icon with its 48 hairpin turns climbing to over 2,500 meters. Or the Great Dolomites Road, a journey that takes you through diverse landscapes, from lush valleys to stark, rocky peaks that feel almost otherworldly.

Scenic Drives Past Alpine Lakes
Beyond the passes, the routes weave past crystal-clear alpine lakes. These bodies of water, often reflecting the dramatic peaks above, provide perfect spots for a brief pause. Pull over, take a breath of crisp mountain air, and soak in the incredible scenery. It’s a chance to appreciate the quieter moments between the exhilarating drives.
Breathtaking Views from Above the Clouds
Many of these routes offer opportunities to ascend even higher. A short cable car ride can whisk you from the roadside to viewpoints nearly 3,000 meters up. From these vantage points, the world unfolds beneath you. You get a 360-degree panorama of the entire alpine range, a truly humbling experience that puts the scale of the Dolomites into perspective. It’s a different kind of thrill, one that comes from sheer awe.
Seamless Travel with Luggage Concierge
Thoughtful Packing for Limited Storage
Supercars are amazing to drive, but let’s be real, the trunk space isn’t exactly generous. We get it. You want to pack smart for your adventure through the Dolomites. Think about bringing soft duffel bags instead of rigid suitcases. They’re much easier to fit into those tighter spaces. Most of our cars have a main trunk and sometimes a smaller frunk (front trunk), so planning your packing can make a big difference. We suggest packing layers, as the mountain weather can change quickly.
Secure Storage for Larger Luggage
Got more gear than will fit in the supercar? No problem. We offer a secure luggage concierge service. If you have larger suitcases, golf clubs, or extra bags, we can arrange to have them transported separately to your next hotel. This means you can enjoy the drive without being cramped, and your belongings will be waiting for you safely when you arrive. It’s all about making your trip as comfortable as possible.
Effortless Transitions Between Destinations
Our goal is to make your journey smooth from start to finish. When you arrive at each hotel, your main luggage will already be there, ready and waiting. You just need to focus on enjoying the incredible scenery and the thrill of driving. We handle the logistics so you don’t have to worry about moving bags between cars or hotels. It’s a simple system designed for maximum enjoyment and minimum hassle.
World-Class Accommodation and Dining
After a day behind the wheel of a roaring supercar, you’ll want a place to truly unwind. We’ve picked out some amazing hotels that are more than just a place to sleep; they’re destinations in themselves. Think stunning mountain views right from your room, or a chance to relax in a top-notch spa after tackling some challenging mountain passes.
Many of these places are former retreats for royalty or have a rich history, all beautifully updated for modern luxury. You can expect top-tier service, often with incredible spa facilities.
Here’s a taste of what awaits:
Exclusive Spa Hotels: Imagine soaking in an outdoor whirlpool while looking out at snow-capped peaks. Many hotels feature extensive spa complexes with various pools, saunas, and treatment rooms. Some even have unique features like thermal baths built into the mountainside.
Gourmet Dining with Panoramic Views: Evenings are for savoring delicious food. You can enjoy creative regional cuisine made with local ingredients, often served in elegant dining rooms or on terraces with breathtaking views of the surrounding Alps or lakes. Some options even include Michelin-starred restaurants for a truly special meal.
Relax and Rejuvenate in Luxury: Beyond the driving, these hotels offer a chance to recharge. Whether it’s a quiet moment by an indoor pool with a valley view or enjoying the fresh mountain air, the focus is on comfort and well-being.
The hotels we select are designed to complement the driving experience, providing a luxurious and tranquil environment to reflect on the day’s adventures and prepare for the next. It’s about balancing the adrenaline of the drive with the serenity of the surroundings.
Iconic Drives and Adrenaline-Pumping Experiences
When you’re behind the wheel of a supercar in the Dolomites, you’re not just driving; you’re experiencing something truly special. We’re talking about roads that have practically become legends among driving enthusiasts.
The Stelvio Pass: A Driving Nirvana
Let’s start with the Stelvio Pass. Seriously, this place is something else. Top Gear even called it the best driving road on the planet, and honestly, it’s easy to see why. Imagine tackling 48 hairpin turns over about 47 kilometers. It’s a real test of skill and nerve, but the payoff is incredible. The views are just out of this world as you climb higher and higher. It’s the kind of drive that stays with you long after you’ve parked the car.
The Great Dolomites Road Adventure
Then there’s the Great Dolomites Road. This route takes you right through the heart of the Dolomites, connecting places like Bolzano to Cortina d’Ampezzo. It’s a different kind of thrill compared to Stelvio. You get these amazing stretches of smooth tarmac mixed with some pretty challenging bends, all set against a backdrop of those iconic limestone peaks. It feels like you’re driving through a postcard. Plus, you can easily hop on a cable car at certain points for even more amazing views – some of these spots were even used in James Bond movies!
Optional Track Day at Monza
If you want to push the limits a bit more, we can arrange a track day at the Monza circuit. This is where Formula 1 history was made. Getting to drive your chosen supercar on this legendary track is an experience you won’t forget. It’s a chance to really feel what your car can do in a controlled environment. Think of it as the ultimate adrenaline rush to cap off your Dolomites adventure.
Your Supercar Dolomites Tours Journey
Your supercar adventure through the Dolomites is more than just a drive; it’s a carefully planned journey designed to immerse you in the beauty and thrill of this incredible region. We start our exploration by heading south from Milan, the fashion capital, setting the stage for the alpine wonders ahead. This initial leg is your chance to really get acquainted with your chosen supercar, perhaps stretching its legs on some open stretches as we make our way towards the mountains.
As we transition from the Italian plains into the heart of the Dolomites, the landscape transforms dramatically. We’ll follow the famous Great Dolomites Road, a route that winds through picturesque valleys and climbs over legendary mountain passes. Imagine yourself tackling hairpin turns with a backdrop of jagged peaks, the air getting crisper as you ascend. It feels like driving on another planet sometimes, with the scenery changing around every bend.
Along the way, we make sure to build in moments to truly appreciate the surroundings. A short cable car ride can whisk you up to viewpoints that offer jaw-dropping panoramas, almost 3,000 meters above the valley floor. It’s a fantastic spot to grab lunch and just soak in the vastness of the alpine skyline.
Our journey culminates in Cortina d’Ampezzo, often called the ‘Pearl of the Dolomites.’ This elegant town is the perfect place to relax after days of exhilarating driving. We’ve arranged stays in top-tier hotels, places where you can unwind in luxurious spas and enjoy gourmet meals with stunning mountain views. It’s all about balancing the adrenaline of the drive with moments of pure relaxation and indulgence.
Here’s a glimpse of what your route might look like:
Day 1: Depart Milan, drive towards Lake Garda, enjoying scenic lakeside roads.
Day 2: Explore the western Dolomites, tackling passes like the Passo Pordoi and Passo Sella.
Day 3: Journey along the Great Dolomites Road, heading towards Cortina d’Ampezzo, with a scenic mountain lunch stop.
Day 4: Experience the eastern Dolomites, perhaps visiting viewpoints or enjoying a final exhilarating drive before heading back.
Essential Information for Your Tour
Planning a supercar adventure through the Dolomites is exciting, and a little preparation goes a long way. We want to make sure your journey is as smooth as possible, so here’s a rundown of what you need to know.
International Driving Permit Recommendations
If your driver’s license isn’t from an EU country, it’s a good idea to have an International Driving Permit (IDP) with you. While your home license might be accepted in some places, an IDP is officially required in many parts of Central Europe for rentals and if you happen to get stopped by the police. It also helps with insurance coverage, so it’s better to have it.
Automatic Transmission Supercars
Don’t worry about wrestling with a clutch in these high-performance machines. All our supercars come with automatic transmissions. You’ll still get the thrill of driving, with paddle shifters available if you want to take manual control of gear changes. It makes focusing on the stunning scenery a lot easier!
Alpine Pass Availability
The famous mountain passes are generally open from late spring through early autumn. The exact opening dates can change based on the weather, but some higher passes might stay open year-round. We keep a close eye on conditions to make sure your planned routes are clear.
We monitor weather closely to ensure your safety and enjoyment. If a pass is unexpectedly closed, we’ll have alternative routes ready or suggest other fun things to do nearby.
A Fleet of Supercars to Choose From
Choosing the right machine for your Dolomites adventure is half the fun. We’ve got a lineup that’ll make your heart race even before you hit the first hairpin turn. Imagine descending the Stelvio Pass with the roar of a Lamborghini Huracán Performante behind you – pure exhilaration. Or maybe you prefer the stylish glide of a Ferrari Portofino along Lake Garda, the wind in your hair. For those who love to carve through mountain roads, a Porsche 911 GT3 offers precision and agility that’s hard to beat.
Here’s a peek at what’s on offer:
Lamborghini Huracán Performante: Raw power and aggressive styling for an unforgettable drive.
Ferrari Portofino: A sophisticated convertible, perfect for scenic cruising and soaking up the sun.
Porsche 911 GT3: A driver’s car, built for performance on winding mountain passes.
We also have other models available, so you can pick the supercar that best matches your driving style and desires. It’s not just about the destination; it’s about the incredible journey you take to get there, and the car you choose is a massive part of that experience. We want you to feel the thrill of these incredible machines on some of the world’s most amazing roads.
Beyond the Drive: Cultural and Scenic Detours
While the roar of the engine and the thrill of the open road are the main draws, the Dolomites offer so much more than just driving. You can easily break up your supercar adventure with some truly memorable detours that add another layer to the experience.
One fantastic option is to take a break from the wheel and ascend to the heavens via a cable car. Imagine this: you’re cruising through the mountains, then you park the car and hop on a lift that whisks you up to a viewpoint nearly 3,000 meters above sea level. The panoramic views from up there are just incredible, offering a 360-degree spectacle of the entire alpine range. It’s a great chance to stretch your legs, grab some lunch with a view, and really appreciate the scale of the landscape you’ve been driving through.
For those with a keen interest in cinematic history, a slight detour can lead you to places made famous by the silver screen. For instance, the Furka Pass in Switzerland, a highlight of many Alpine tours, was famously featured in the James Bond film Goldfinger. Driving this route, you can almost feel the movie magic.
Here’s a look at some potential cultural stops:
Museo Mille Miglia: Located in Brescia, this museum celebrates the legendary Mille Miglia road race, a historic event that has captivated motorsport enthusiasts for decades. It’s a fascinating glimpse into Italy’s rich racing heritage.
Cable Car Rides: As mentioned, taking a cable car up to a high-altitude viewpoint offers unparalleled vistas. It’s a refreshing change of pace and provides a different perspective on the dramatic Dolomite scenery.
Historic Bond Locations: Certain passes, like the aforementioned Furka Pass, offer a connection to iconic films, adding a pop culture element to your drive. It’s fun to see the real-life locations that have played a part in cinematic history.
