Frequently asked questions.
General
What is VroomTours?
VroomTours offers curated, small-group driving tours on Europe’s best roads. Think legendary passes, mountain switchbacks, and hidden local gems — all tested by our team and local experts. These are the ultimate driving tours: no buses, no gimmicks, just driving.
Who are the tours for?
Enthusiast drivers who want more than a scenic cruise. You’ll need to enjoy spirited driving, be comfortable with twisty roads, and be ready for long but rewarding days behind the wheel. Passengers are equally welcome.

We strongly recommend European breakdown cover. Our team will help coordinate recovery or onward travel, but costs are your responsibility.
