Strada dei Giganti
Piedmont to Modena. Kimera, MAT, Pininfarina, ARES. Rally ghosts, modern engineering.
Not a tour. A controlled burn.
Italy, at speed. Between the lines.
Seven days, curated for executives who want the real Italy: the workshops, the back doors, the private tastings, the perfect roads. We move you by Frecciarossa business class, stitch the gaps with a chauffeur, and put you behind the wheel only when it matters.
Base can be Venice, the Dolomites edge, or anywhere that makes logistical sense. We’re allergic to wasted time.
Three signature itineraries
Pick your myth. We’ll handle the physics.
Each is a 7-day arc built around Italy’s modern coachbuilders, restomod artisans, and design legends, with Frecciarossa as the spine. These are prototypes, not a brochure. We refine to your tastes and tolerances.
Included, always
- Chauffeur-driven airport pickup/drop-off (Friuli, Veneto, Lombardy, Dolomites, Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany, Puglia)
- Business-class Frecciarossa segments to erase dead time
- Private tastings and chef-forward dining (no tourist menus)
- Roads worth remembering, with safety and permits handled
Dolce Vita Drive Lab
Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany. ARES, Touring, Maggiore. Food, design, and steering feel.
Adriatic to Alps
Venice to the Dolomites edge. Quiet luxury, private cellars, and roads with altitude in their voice.
How it works
Fast travel, slow moments.
- Day 0: we collect preferences, dietary needs, risk tolerance, and your “never again” list.
- Days 1–6: each day has one anchor experience (factory, drive, tasting), plus two optional “side doors.”
- Day 7: a final drive or private lunch, then chauffeur transfer to airport or onward rail.
- Always: we protect your time. No shopping traps. No forced group bonding. No bus energy.
FAQ (because humans ask)
- Is Bologna / Parma “Northern Italy”? Yes. They’re commonly grouped as North / North-Central.
- Is Siena / Montepulciano “Northern Italy”? No. That’s Tuscany (Central Italy).
- Can the base be the Dolomites edge? Yes. Venice is convenient; the Dolomites are poetic. Pick your poison.
We can also run a Venice Film Festival cameo if you want your trip to include people dressed like plot twists.
Service area
Chauffeur coverage, not just a postcode.
We provide chauffeur-driven transfers and on-the-ground logistics across Friuli, Veneto, Lombardy, the Dolomites, Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany, and Puglia. If your itinerary needs a detour for a once-in-a-lifetime dinner or a private collection, we route it like a heist.
Request an invite
Tell us what you want to feel.
We run small groups. If you’re looking for a “tour,” the internet is full of them. If you want a week that resets your senses, send a note.
The vibe
Executive class rail. Modern coachbuilders. Roads that make you say nothing for a while. Meals that remind you why humans invented culture in the first place.
