Guided road trip
A selection of the finest roads between the Île-de-France and Champagne, designed for the pleasure of driving.
Your cars, the finest roads of Champagne and a convivial atmosphere among enthusiasts.
A visit to two emblematic estates and tastings from great Champagne houses.
Lunches, dinner and brunch carefully selected throughout the weekend.
A night in a 4-star hotel in the heart of nature, with spa access included.
David and Thomas are present throughout the whole weekend.
They drive with the group, join the meals, the visits and the tastings, and stay at the same hotel.
The goal isn't only to drive, but to share a genuine moment together: to talk among enthusiasts, discover the other members' cars and enjoy two days together in an exceptional setting.
A selection of the finest roads between the Île-de-France and Champagne, designed for the pleasure of driving.
A prestigious starting point in an exceptional historic setting: a walk in the gardens and the first photos of the cars.
A well-regarded address, chosen for the quality of its cuisine as much as its ability to host the group and the cars.
An emblematic house of the Côte des Bar: a superb estate to tour the cellars, taste several cuvées and photograph the cars.
A night at the Domaine de la Forêt d'Orient: free spa access, large outdoor spaces and a natural setting made for relaxation.
A former cellar founded in the 12th century, with a cellar listed as a Historic Monument: a more heritage-focused take on Champagne.
Times are indicative and subject to change.
The route favours back roads, small panoramic lanes and village crossings, to enjoy the driving, the scenery and the region, with no racing spirit.
No tight convoy: meeting points punctuate the route, and everyone moves at their own pace. A roadbook and route directions are provided, and photo stops are planned at several iconic spots.
The Benzin spirit naturally celebrates cars with character (classics, youngtimers or collector's vehicles), but no restriction applies. Above all, the goal is to share a passion for cars.
Passengers, too, are most welcome.
