Victorian Driving Tour
Reignite your love of driving in the rural highlands with our luxury driving holiday in Victoria, coupled with the Targa High Country tarmac rally.
This ‘drive your own car’ tour combines two bucket-list driving experiences: a luxury open-road drive exploring the best accommodation, indulgent dining and scenery Victoria has to offer, complemented neatly by a couple of days of fast-paced, closed-road action in the touring category of Targa High Country.
In addition to your exploits on the roads, the trip offers a luxurious long-weekend getaway coupling gourmet delights at a series of award-winning restaurants and renowned wineries, plus overnight stays in a selection of the finest accommodation regional Victoria has to offer.
Further refine your experience with optional add-ons such as a chartered helicopter from Daylesford back to Melbourne at the conclusion of the drive, and more.
Whether you have a passion for driving, exploring or unwinding in luxury, this long weekend will leave you fulfilled and invigorated.

Day 1 - Optional Melbourne Welcome
For interstate guests, arrive into Melbourne by mid-afternoon. Your car, having been transported from your home, will be securely stored and waiting for your arrival. Local and interstate guests can then opt to meet in the early afternoon for an unofficial welcome aperitif and dinner. The perfect way to start this long weekend and meet other guests on the tour.
Day 2 - First Drive Day
Meet in the morning for a display start. Today's drive will take place on open roads, with the route covering a selection of renowned roads throughout the Yarra and Macedon Ranges to Daylesford. In the evening, you will stay at the one of Victoria's most celebrated regional venues and enjoy dinner at the hotel's AGFG-hatted restaurant.
Day 3 - Second Drive Day
On Friday, you will head east back through the Yarra Ranges to link up with Targa High Country. The morning will feature magnificent free-flowing sections of tarmac, after which you will have your first taste of closed-road rallying on the Targa Tour. The day's stages feature a mix of flowing sweepers, tightening corners and spectacular views.
Day 4 - Third Drive Day
The second day of the rally is a loop out from Mansfield. The day includes seven closed-road stages on the Targa Tour. Before lunch, you will enjoy some high-speed flowing stages combined with a twisty run down the valley into Whitfield. In the afternoon, the stages are repeated in reverse, followed by the famous Mansfield Street Stage and Street Party.
Day 5 - Fourth Drive Day
Day three of the Targa Tour covers the mammoth stage of Jamieson – the second-longest stage on the Targa calendar, and one of the most challenging tarmac rally stages. We will then make our way to Yering Station for a leisurely afternoon of wine tasting and lunch before onward travel or an optional additional evening in Melbourne.
Day 6 - Farewell and Departures
For those who opted to join us for the additional night, following breakfast and check-out the day is yours before transfers and onward travel plans.
