Italy is known for its food, its art, and its timeless cities. But there’s another side of this country—a faster, louder, adrenaline-filled side—that many travelers never get to see.
Welcome to Motor Valley.
With Tour Leader Venice, you can leave the canals behind and spend a full day exploring the high-octane world of Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Pagani. This is not just a museum visit. It’s an exclusive, behind-the-scenes adventure into the beating heart of Italian supercar culture—with optional test drives on real tracks.
🛶 From the Water to the Wheels
Your day begins in Venice, where we’ll pick you up directly from your hotel or accommodation. After boarding your private luxury van, you’ll travel in comfort across the scenic landscapes of the Veneto and Emilia-Romagna regions. As the city fades into the countryside, your expert tour leader will begin sharing stories, history, and curiosities about what you’re about to see.
This isn’t just a day trip—it’s a pilgrimage for lovers of speed, design, and Italian craftsmanship.
🏎️ First Stop: Ferrari – The House That Enzo Built
We arrive in Maranello, the historic home of Ferrari—a brand that needs no introduction. The moment you step into the Ferrari Museum, the air changes. It’s charged. Red cars shimmer under dramatic lights, engines are displayed like sculptures, and Formula 1 trophies line the walls.
🔧 The Ferrari Story
Ferrari began in the 1920s when Enzo Ferrari, a race car driver from Modena, joined Alfa Romeo’s racing team. After founding Scuderia Ferrari as Alfa’s racing division, he eventually broke away and launched his own company in 1939. The first Ferrari-branded car, the 125 S, was born in 1947—and so was a legend.
Ferrari didn’t just build cars. He built an identity. A Ferrari isn’t just fast—it’s emotion, history, competition, and prestige rolled into one scarlet body.

Whether you pick the elegant Portofino, the aggressive F8 Tributo, or another beast, the sound of that V8 or V12 under your hands is unforgettable.
🐂 Second Stop: Lamborghini – The Rebel with a V12
From Maranello, we head to Sant’Agata Bolognese, a small town with a big roar. This is the birthplace of Lamborghini, Ferrari’s loudest rival—and perhaps Italy’s most rebellious automaker.
💥 The Lamborghini Legend
It all started with a tractor. Yes, really.
Ferruccio Lamborghini, a wealthy industrialist from Emilia-Romagna, made his fortune manufacturing tractors after WWII. He was also a passionate car collector—and a critical Ferrari owner. Legend has it that when he complained to Enzo Ferrari about issues with his car, Ferrari dismissed him, saying, “You may be able to drive a tractor, but you’ll never be able to handle a Ferrari.”
Ferruccio took that as a challenge. In 1963, he founded Automobili Lamborghini and released the 350 GT, followed by the revolutionary Miura—often considered the world’s first supercar.
Lamborghini has always stood for bold design, extreme performance, and unfiltered emotion. It’s a brand that doesn’t whisper. It screams.

🌀 Third Stop: Pagani – Art Meets Engineering
Our final stop is a true hidden gem. Tucked away in San Cesario sul Panaro, the Pagani factory and museum offer an intimate look at a brand that redefines what a car can be.
🎨 The Pagani Dream
Horacio Pagani, an Argentinian engineer with a passion for Leonardo da Vinci, came to Italy with a dream: to combine art and science in motion. After working for Lamborghini and mastering carbon fiber engineering, he founded Pagani Automobili in the 1990s.
His first creation, the Zonda, stunned the automotive world with its mix of aerospace materials and radical design. Pagani’s second model, the Huayra, was equally mind-blowing—hand-built, futuristic, and deeply personal.
Pagani cars are not mass-produced. Each one is a custom-built, road-legal work of art. And the factory tour feels like walking into a watchmaker’s studio.
