Goodwood Revival Tour

I get periodic marketing emails on my club account, the vast majority of which don't get passed on. I decided to make an exception for this one, because it sounds like a lot of fun. Too rich for my blood/wallet, but I thought I would share it in case any of you are interested. I know nothing about this other than what is in the email, including whether or not the company is reputable. Still, like I said, it does look like fun!

Goodwood Revival Tour 2022

A luxury 14 day classic car experience
Our company, Backwater Classic Car Tours, has put together an amazing package that will allow classic car enthusiasts to be part of the unique experience that is the Goodwood Revival Festival, one of the world’s premier classic car motoring events.

The Goodwood Revival Tour, which is fully escorted throughout, takes place from August 20 to September 13th, 2022. web link

It's 640-mile route includes not only a 3-day entry pass to the Goodwood Revival itself (with grandstand seating and free circuit parking), but also excursions to some of the UK’s most iconic monuments including Windsor Castle, Blenheim Palace, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, Mary Rose Museum and HMS Victory.

As a break from car related venues we also visit some important English gardens like RHS Wisley, Hidcote Gardens, Exbury Gardens and Westonbirt Arboretum.

Accommodation for the 14 nights is in a series of five 4-star luxury hotels. All have been chosen by Backwater Tours for their comfort, excellent facilities and locations. Guests are provided with a full English breakfast every day and nine three-course dinners over the full fortnight, plus a Gala Farewell Dinner on the last night.

Naturally, the highlight of the Revival tour is the three days at the Goodwood Revival Festival itself. A firm favorite with classic motor enthusiasts for over two decades, this flamboyant and colourful event has something for everyone, from classic sports cars to motorcycles, old aeroplanes and jazz bands, to say nothing of glamorous costumes from the 40s, 50s and 60s.

Very importantly, during this event, Backwater Tour guests will be staying at the Hilton Avisford Park Hotel, a venue situated just 6 miles from Goodwood. This means that daily visits to the Revival are quick and easy, with no need for a long journey through heavy event traffic, a problem frequently encountered with some other Revival tour packages.

The price of the Goodwood Revival package includes the hire of a luxury car a Mercedes E Class or similar as standard. A GPS Navigator pre-loaded with day-to-day route planning, and a comprehensive tour book, ensure comfortable driving and a chance to appreciate some beautiful countryside. Choose for how many of the destinations you wish to visit and when they want to depart from the hotel. This gives you maximum freedom to tailor the tour to suit their own particular needs.

Any event linked with Lord March tends to be a wondeful, well planned, amazing event... But generally expensive.
