Grouped into packets, the TARGA tour is led by our experienced tour leaders, who are there to assist your driving pleasure and match you up with like-minded tour participants.
With a cross section of marvellously restored classic vehicles, as well as the latest in grand touring sports vehicles, the TARGA tour is for all car enthusiasts.

Targa Competition
TARGA Competition is a genuine, red-blooded motorsport event. It is a tarmac rally designed for the true motoring enthusiast.
A Tarmac Rally is a unique form of motorsport where Tarmac Rally Cars compete on sealed roads closed for competition. Cars start at 30-second intervals and race against the clock, with the winner being the fastest car over all stages.
The TARGA Competition is your passport to driving your competition car through some of the most beautiful, yet technically challenging sealed roads, testing your driving capability and the tenacity of your service crew. You will experience the primal thrill of tackling turn after turn, the exhilaration of driving your pride and joy as it was designed, on roads that are otherwise never closed.
TARGA however, is not about notoriety or prize money – it is about the passion of the drive, where camaraderie overtakes competition. It’s the rawest form of motorsport, where the novice can compete side-by-side with legends.
