South of France Tour (6-9 Jun 2023)

From Nice up into the hills including stages of the Rally Monte Carlo

https://www.monoowners.club/events/south-of-france-3-day-tour/

Experience some of the most spectacular country roads in the world. Between Nice, Sospel and Valberg in the Département Alpes-Maritimes we will explore the wildest passes for 3 days, taking in some stages of the Rally Monte Carlo.

As with all tours, we are guided through the region by a professional driver so that you don’t have to stress about navigating and can concentrate fully on driving. In addition, a technical team from BAC will accompany us in support vehicles with everything we need to ensure that we are optimally provided for and that there are no limits to the driving fun.

We set up camp in the middle of the mountains north of Nice in the region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur. Here we have a chalet to ourselves, from where we will drive various routes and where we are spoiled with culinary delights by a private chef after a long day at the wheel.

I’m excited for this event! All signed up! For us whom have never done this before. Do most people wear a helmet? What kinda dress? Weather? Tips for packing?!

Yeah we all are excited!

As for helmets: as you prefer. Some drive with helmet some dont. I never drive with Helmet – only if it rains.

Packing: pack light. We have a support vehicle that takes our luggage but obviously the space is limited. Be prepared for rain so always bring a rain jacket (I suggest BAC driver’s jacket) and wet pants for the worst case scenario. Besides that all casual. We dont have super formal dinners etc. smart casual will do for evenings. If you decide to drive without helmet: Sunglases AND sun blocker!!!

Weather: In june in the south of France we will be looking at temperatures in the range of 20-25 degrees (Celcius) – it might get e bit cooler up in the mountains.

Hope that helps! :wink:
