I have owned a few Ferrari's and have always wanted to drive out to Maranello, but never done it!
At the beginning of June i have an owners factory tour booked and I want to finally drive down in my new to me Ferrari 488.
I know that lots of you will have done this trip so I thought I'd ask for some advice and recommendations (I've read a few of the post about euro trips).
1. What's the best way to Europe? Im 15 mins to Harwich port, and so can get the overnight +6hr ferry to Hook of Holland. Alternatively, I can drive drive 2 hrs to Folkestone and take the 30min train to Calais? Am I better arriving in Holland of Calais?
2. When I hit Europe the routes can be quite different. If I come in to Holland, then its Germany, Switzerland, Italy. If i come into Calais, then its France, Switzerland, Italy.
Which route is best and why? I'd like to do a couple of good passes (eg Susten?); which would you recommend?
3. Whichever route, I plan to do it in two days. Does that sound doable? Where would you stop at a rough half way point? Good hotel recommendations with good parking?
4. After three nights in Maranello (hotel already booked) im going to head up to lake Garda for a few days. Any recommendations for hotels in Garda (with good parking).
Anything else I should know?
