Time to take the Porsche for a spin

Wednesday, 21 Oct, 2010 0

Car buffs are being offered a unique luxury self-drive tour of southern Germany to coincide with the 125th anniversary of the birth of the automobile, beginning in May 2011.

Stuttgart, the capital of the German state of Baden-Württemberg is where Carl Benz invented the famous Benz Patent Motor Car in 1886.

At ITB Asia, Stuttgart-Marketing launched the Premium Cars of Southern Germany tours. These allow tourists to self-drive Mercedes-Benz, Porche, Audi and BMW cars around southern Germany.

The route follows motoring heritage with visits to the three premier automobile manufacturing locations of Stuttgart, Munich and Ingolstadt.

The tours include recommended stops at automobile museums and sightseeing in the cities.

All overnight stays will be in four or five star hotels.

The very first automobiles were conceived in a workshop in Baden-Württemberg by Wilhelm Maybach and Gottlieb Daimler.

The main production plants of both Mercedes-Benz and Porsche are also located in Baden-Württemberg.
