Fireball Monte Carlo Rally

Itinerary

1st night - Thursday EVENING 21st May - Pre Rally Briefing
The Superheroes meet in Kent

Meet and greet in Kent. Time here for introductions, where all the Fireball Rally Drivers and Navigators from around Britain meet each other and are issued with their Car Decals. This will be the first rally for some, so an overall briefing of the Rally will be given in the Bar, including more detailed information on tomorrows leg of the rally.

For ease, this Rally is based on GPS navigation which is ideal for Garmin and TomTom SatNav's. Sat Nav coordinates will be explained along with more information on setting your Sat Navs for the assault on Europe as not every mountain has a post code. As we're in the bar area, we'll all enjoy a couple of quizzes for teams to check their knowledge on continental driving--. and what you don't know, you'll find out here. The excitement and anticipation of a great adventure begins along with meeting fellow adventurers who will become your good friends.

The Rally begins tomorrow at the very moment your car tyres hit the French tarmac.

Day 1- Friday 22nd Calais to Burgundy.
The Rally begins - and there's time for Versailles or Romantic Paris

Day 2- Saturday 23rd Burgundy to the French Riviera.
Driving through France, this is wine making country, and there are vineyards to be visited, wine to be tasted and enjoyment to be had.
Congratulations, after two days of driving, you have Arrived and Completed the Outward Leg of the famous Fireball Monte Carlo Rally--.Stage 2, later on, will take us all home again, but for now it's the Mediterranean Sea, the French Riviera and fellow Fireballers

Day 3- Sunday 24th Monte Carlo, Monaco.
We're here for two nights, just enough time to enjoy the Monaco Grand Prix, which looks as though it was organised especially for us to enjoy.
If you only go to one Grand Prix in your life, make sure it's the Monaco Grand Prix, with Formula 1 thoroughbred cars racing though the everyday streets of Monte Carlo.

If Formula One Racing isn't your thing, take a leisurely drive along the French Riviera and Top up your Tan in the sands of St Tropez and sunbathe in the glow of Bridget Bardot and the Jet Set .

Day 4- Monday 25th Monaco to Pisa
We travel along the French and Italian Riviera's to Pisa. You could take the Grand Corniche, a military road built by Napoleon and the place where Princess Grace of Monaco tragically lost her life.

The Grand Corniche also features in Quantum of Solace as Bond loses the drivers door of his Aston Martin in typically dramatic style

THE ICONIC LEANING TOWER OF PISA.
Leaning since the thirteenth century, survived numerous wars and remains a stunning white. Don't you think it's about time you gave it a PUSH?

FERRARI
Don't miss the Magnificent Ferrari Museum just outside Pisa. We'll give you the coordinates just like everywhere else. We don't want you to miss a thing.

You can take part in the Ferrari Racing Simulator. This is a palace to pay homage to Ferrari -.love them or hate them, they have made a huge impact on modern car design.

Day 5- Tuesday 26th We leave Pisa.
Heading towards Liechtenstein, you can divert a little if you choose and drive the awe inspiring Stelvio Pass, it's another military road built by Napolean and a real 'Top Gear' rated Pass - you'll never complain about boring straight roads ever again.

The people of the stunning little Principality of Liechtenstein officially live longer than anywhere else on Earth. It might be due to not being in the EU, or it could be the Tax Haven savings, but here's your chance to buy Brand New, Duty Free Goods ---. perhaps you'll live a little longer knowing you had a bargain. There's a Cable Car that takes you to a Golf Course with the finest views and coffee in the Club House - All are welcome

Day 6-Wednesday 27th The Black Forest.
The Museums of Porsche and Mercedes are both in Germany and just happen to be on our way as we travel north --- You won't be disappointed, they're magnificent and a fantastic tribute to German engineering and design!!!

Then onto our last campsite in the Black Forest which is truly amazing. Bears and Wolves haven't been seen here recently, but Wild Boars still roam.

This is the final evening together and it's also The Fireball Rally Awards evening with Certificate and Trophies to be presented.

Please feel free to take your own, everyday car on this great adventure - you'll love it even more when you get back, but also be aware that we will be presenting trophies for those that go a little further, after all, we're all doing this for Adventure, Charity and FUN.
