Autofahrt Netherlands 2026
2026-06-05 - 2026-06-09 | South Yorkshire
For 2026 Autofahrt will return to Holland and Bimmerfest. This exclusive 5 day tour from 05-09 June 2026 is open to all club members and all club cars. The tour is escorted by club members Chris Tranter and Nick Thomas, and is again managed by Scenic Car Tours. Chris lives in Luxemburg, and Nick lived in Germany and the Netherlands for 10 years, so both are happy to help and advice members who are not used to European driving. This will be the fifth escorted club tour following Autofahrt Munich, Autofahrt Holland, Autofahrt Germany and Autofahrt Manx. The tour is designed without long drives to keep fuel costs reasonable – most cars will complete the tour on one or two tanks of fuel.
Day 1 – Friday 05 June 2026
The tour starts for most on the Friday evening. The standard tour crossing is from Harwich, arriving in Hook of Holland the next morning after taking an overnight (23:00-08:00) Stena Line crossing from Harwich to Hook of Holland. Relax, enjoy a drink and evening meal (not included in tour cost) and get a good night’s sleep in your inside cabin with lower beds on the ferry.
Other crossings via Hull/Rotterdam, Newcastle/Amsterdam or English Channel crossings can also be arranged.

Day 2 – Saturday 06 June
Breakfast on ferry (not included in tour cost)
Approx 1 hour drive from Hook of Holland to Buren (approx. 3:30hrs from channel tunnel). We meet at the Visscher Classique Museum, Schuilheuvelstraat 1, 4116 GA, Buren at 12:30 for a light lunch and the tour Meet and Greet and first briefing. Museum entry and lunch is included in the tour price.

The Visscher Classique Museum is the unique old and youngtimer experience – that’s what Visscher Classique is all about. Discover the place and development of the car in world history since the end of the 19th century and see that in the museum’s collection. The museum has its origins in Henk Visscher’s passion for old and young-timers. At the age of forty, he began to see the beauty of it and started to collect it. It started just before the turn of the century with the purchase of a Peugeot 404 from 1964. In the nearly 30 years since, his collection grew to more than 100 cars that comprise about 100 years of car history. Please free to explore the museum at your own pace.
After exploring the museum drive (approx. 1.5 hours) to Venlo and the tour hotel for the next two nights – Hotel de Bovenste Molen, Bovenste Molenweg 12, 5912 TV, Venlo

In the middle of greenery on the outskirts of Venlo, is Bilderberg Hotel De Bovenste Molen. Surrounded by 44 hectares of forest with winding paths, lakes and streams, this is the place for rest and relaxation. The pond terrace offers an idyllic place to relax. Relax in the heated swimming pool, sauna or taste the flavours of Burgundian Limburg in Restaurant WOODZ combined with a wide range of specialty beers.
In the evening we will head into Venlo for evening meal (not included in tour cost). We can either drive and park in the centre or take a taxi. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venlo

Day 3 – Sunday 07 June
We need to leave the hotel early as we want to arrive at Bimmerfest “largest one day BMW event in Europe” at approximately 8am to beat the queues. The hotel will supply us a takeaway cold breakfast box/takeaway hot drinks from 6:00am (included in tour cost).
At 6:45am we will have the second tour briefing, followed by departure at approximately 7am for the 45 minute drive to Bimmerfest at Raceway Venray (Peelweg 47, 5813 AD Ysselsteyn).
The BMW Car Club GB will have a club stand at Bimmerfest, and tickets and paddock cards are included in the tour cost. Bimmerfest is one of the biggest BMW shows globally attracting well over 2000 cars from all over Europe. There is always a great selection of cars, club stands and is supported by many big names in the BMW community, with live action, displays, trade stands and there is lots to see and do and has an excellent vibe. https://www.bimmerfest.eu/en/homepage/

After the show we will return to Hotel for an evening meal at Hotel (3 courses with 3 options per course, included in tour cost).

Day 4 – Monday 08 June
Today starts with a leisurely breakfast at the hotel (included in tour cost) and the third tour briefing.
We set off for the 2 hour drive to Rotterdam Harbour and our destination – the ocean liner SS Rotterdam. https://ssrotterdam.com/

On 13 September, 1958, with a clearly spoken “I name you the Rotterdam and wish you a safe journey” Queen Juliana christened the new pride of the Dutch merchant fleet and sent the ship down the ways at the Rotterdam Drydock Company under the eyes of an enormous audience. As the former flagship of the Holland-America Line, the SS Rotterdam has sailed the seven seas. Today SS Rotterdam is permanently moored in Rotterdam Harbour, it’s easy to reach and there is plenty of parking available. Discover La Grande Dame’s many stories and visit its authentic areas while we eat, drink, sleep, and explore.
After our arrival on board, we will have a private SS Rotterdam Complete Tour lasting 2.5 hours with an English speaking guide, taking in the upper decks, the bow and bridge, along with the old indoor pool, the sports decks, the boilers and turbines.

After a set menu dinner on board, we will have a good night’s rest in the ships historic cabins, themed either as Original, Manhattan or Bahamas. These styles are based on the various (exotic) destinations that SS Rotterdam enjoyed in her years as a luxury cruise ship.
Day 5 – Tuesday 08 June
Today is a relaxed departure day. After breakfast on board, the standard return crossing is the 1415-1945 Stena line day crossing from Hook to Harwich.
Other crossings via Rotterdam/Hull, Amsterdam/Newcastle (1.5 hrs from SS Rotterdam) or English Channel crossings (4 hrs from SS Rotterdam) can also be arranged.
