Modena to Maranello

Maserati is the oldest of the Italian supercar makers with a history that dates back to 1914 and includes some of the world's most famous racing victories.
Entry to the marque's Modena showroom is free but there is charge for a factory tour, which you can book on the official website.
The Showroom is open Monday to Friday from 09.00-17.00 except for the month of August when everything shuts down.

2023 marks Lamborghini's 60th anniversary and to celebrate the company completely refreshed its museum which is housed in one of the original Sant’ Agata Bolognese buildings where Ferruccio Lamborghini began his eponymous supercar company.
Like the firm itself, the building has been extensively remodelled to create a stunning contemporary space in which to display Lamborghini’s most extraordinary vehicles and to trace its history of innovation.
Opening hours are 09.30-18.00 and tickets can be purchased in advance at the official website.

If the sight of all these supercars has you salivating then Ristorante Da Taiadela is the perfect spot for lunch.
It's walking distance from Lamborghini which is why you're most likely to find yourself dining alongside the Raging Bull's workers on tasty local dishes.

Pagani is the new kid on the Modena block, having been founded by Horacio Pagani in 1992 after he left former employer Lamborghini.
In those three decades since the company has caused quite a stir with its almost steampunk-styled multi-million dollar hypercars.
The museum is open 09.30-17.00 Monday to Friday and 09.30-12.30 on Saturdays. For tickets, visit the official website.

Now this trip takes a turn to follow the famous Prancing Horse. This evening and tomorrow are all about Ferrari.
Check in at the Hotel Maranello Village and you'' find yourself at the only Ferrari-themed hotel in the world.
The rooms, apartments and suites are housed in four blocks named after racing circuits where a Ferrari has taken the checkered flag: Daytona, Monza, Suzuka and Le Mans. Each room is decorated with plenty of Rosso Red and pictures of Ferrari's most famous cars.
The hotel can even lay on a Ferrari driving experience at a nearby circuit if you feel the need for speed.

For motor racing fans there is no better place to satisfy an appetite than Ristorante Montana. It is quite simply the Ferrari of restaurants, or, more accurately, the restaurant of Ferrari.
Situated just across the road from the Fiorano test track it's where Ferrari's racing legends, engineers, designers and probably even the cleaners go to eat.
Adorned with the most amazing Maranello memorabilia, from race suits, to helmets, car parts, photographs and autographs it also happens to boast the most delicious food you can imagine. The menu is traditional, simple, hearty but absolutely fabulous and surprisingly affordable.
Call +39 05 360 843 910 to book, but not on Sundays, when the restaurant is closed.

Finish the day back at the Hotel Maranello Village and doze off looking at the car of your dreams on the wall. Sleep well, there's a day full of Ferrari ahead.
