Monaco & Sospel by Classic Convertible
Monaco & Sospel by Classic Convertible
Your classic car journey begins in Menton with a private selection and briefing at the port before the convoy sets off along the Riviera coast toward Monaco. From behind the wheel of your convertible, you follow the shoreline into the Principality, passing Casino Square and a portion of the celebrated Grand Prix circuit. This opening drive brings an immediate sense of occasion, placing you on roads closely associated with Riviera motoring while offering a rare, hands-on way to experience the coastline beyond a traditional sightseeing tour.
After Monaco, continue to L’Escarène, where you pause at a local café for coffee, tea, or a soft drink. The route then turns inland, climbing into the mountain passes behind Monaco and leading you away from the busier coastal roads. This is where the drive becomes more off the beaten path, following roads through the hinterland and the village of Sospel. The scenery shifts between mountain passes, village streets, and sweeping roads that gradually guide you back toward the Mediterranean.
For the final section, descend back toward Menton as the road returns to the Mediterranean coast. The route brings you from the mountain roads of the Riviera hinterland back to the shoreline, with the yacht waiting ahead in port. Upon arrival, you return your classic convertible and conclude the experience with a short debrief and farewell before rejoining your yacht.
Notes: The price of this experience is charged per car, not per person. Each booking includes one car and accommodates up to 2 guests. Guests may be required to walk a short distance on the pier to reach the cars. In order to participate, guests must meet the following limits: maximum height: 203 cm (6 feet 8 inches); maximum weight: 127 kg (280 lbs) maximum. A waiver is required to sign in order to participate in this tour. Drivers are required to carry a valid driver’s license and will be asked by the onboard team, once the voyage begins, to confirm whether they prefer to drive an automatic or manual transmission car. Guests do not choose the specific car; they only request the type of transmission. Vehicles are assigned on the day of the excursion, and specific models cannot be guaranteed. The tour is self-driving, with a lead car and a following car, and driver/guides positioned in the front and rear vehicles. The convoy follows a regular pace, and guests are required to follow the lead of the group at all times; this is not a fast-paced experience. During the experience, you may have the opportunity to exchange your classic car with fellow participants, should both parties agree. The driving time is approximately 3 hours, although this may be affected by traffic conditions. The itinerary and driving pace may be adjusted locally based on traffic, weather, road conditions, or operational requirements. Air conditioning may not be available in all cars, and as most vehicles are convertibles, guests should be prepared for sun exposure, wind, and seasonal temperatures. All vehicles are convertibles and are equipped with a roof that can be raised if weather conditions require. Comfortable clothing, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat are recommended. Guests should also wear suitable footwear for driving; high heels or open-back sandals are not recommended for drivers. Storage space in the vehicles may be limited, so guests should avoid bringing large bags. Guests who are under the influence of alcohol, or who appear otherwise unfit to drive, will not be permitted to participate in the driving portion of the tour for safety reasons, and no refund will be given. Guests who plan to drive must not consume alcohol before or during the driving portion of the tour.
