The Monaco Historics
May 11-20, 2022  

NEW: additional days include Ferrari, Lamborghini & Righini Collections

Monaco Skyline Lotus 25 Car

The Monaco Historics has grown into the most exciting week of classic car racing in the World. It’s pure racing, no quarter asked, no quarter given. From the 1930’s Bugattis, Alfas and ERA’s to the Lotus, Tyrells and Ferraris of the 70’s, the classes are superb. Overlooking the start/finish line, our superb Hospitality Suite makes sure you don’t miss a thing. Add the glamour of Monaco, great restaurants, private events and racing celebrities and you have the recipe of a dream trip. However, that is just a start. We have now added two full days in the Maranello/Modena/Bologna area, with visits to the top Italian exotic car manufacturers and private museums. Our busy schedule continues with two full days in Lake Garda with visits to the Mille Miglia Museum and a special presentation of Mille entrants including lunch at the private museum.  Our final day on Lake Garda will include a visit of the famous Allegrini vineyard and concluding with a ferry ride across Lake Garda culminating in a special evening farewell.
First Class accommodations are hallmarks of this program, top restaurants and dream locations make this an experience of a lifetime.
