What to expect
You'll collect your classic car and enjoy breakfast, then head into the Sierra with your guide leading from another vehicle via walkie-talkie. The route avoids motorways, threading through mountain towns and past historical sites around El Escorial. Expect several stops at viewpoints and places of interest—the guide will signal when to pull over and explain what you're seeing. The roads are characterful rather than challenging, letting you enjoy the drive without worrying about wrong turns. You're driving the whole way, not being driven.
