Hotel Benaco - One of our gold standard hotels in the beautiful Italian Lakes

Bring your car to Lake Garda in 2019 and enjoy a very special welcome

What better way to relax and unwind after an exhilarating drive to Lake Garda, than with a glass or two of Prosecco c/o your host and fellow Petrolhead, Gregory Canzini, owner of Hotel Benaco?

Gregory has for many years catered for car clubs. He knows what you need and what your car needs for a successful trip. One that you, like we at Petrolheads Welcome, can look back upon with fond memories.

That's not all, here's Gregory's invitation to members of Petrolheads Welcome...

Hotel Benaco Offer

10% off all advertised prices for booking direct with Hotel Benaco for stays of at least 2 nights during 2019, booked before 31/5/19 (use code 'petrolhead').
Drinks card on arrival. You don't have to spend it on Prosecco, but we recommend it!

Full T&Cs are available from Hotel Benaco

Driving long, actually huge, distances is what South African Petrolheads Welcome members Dave & Laurel Godwin like to do. You could be joining them!

If you fancy - or maybe just want to think about - driving from Bangkok, Thailand to Mount Everest Base Camp in Katmandu, Nepal, click here.

Oh no, not Brexit again!!!!

Sorry, yes, but this time it's about continuing to enjoy our lovely cars regardless of what happens in the UK Parliament.

We're not the experts, but we thought you might like to now about three sources who are:

The UK Government (bless 'em) - on the basics
The Post Office - as a source of International Driving Licences
The RAC - the do's and don'ts of driving abroad

That's it. We're done here (for now)!
