How do you create magical memories in Switzerland? Try a signature experience at Castello del Sole in Ascona.
Set amid 140 hectares of farmland on the shores of Lake Maggiore, this remarkable five-star hotel takes culinary activities to the next level.

More hands-on guests may prefer a 90-minute risotto masterclass with the incredible head chef Mattias Roock, before enjoying the fruits of your labour over a chilled glass of wine. Bellissimo!

Simplicity is the dish of the day in Provence – one of France’s culinary hotspots!
Unlike richer dishes from regions such as Normandy and Burgundy, the cuisine in Provence is traditionally lighter and bursting with Mediterranean flavours.
You’ll find world-famous dishes like ratatouille, tapenade and bouillabaisse, made using fresh and seasonal ingredients such as tomatoes, peppers, garlic, olives, seafood, and wild herbs.
A crisp niçoise salad, bottle of rosé, and sweeping views of the Mediterranean sea… it’s the perfect afternoon in Provence!
Guests on this year’s Le Grand Tour Provence will experience some of these delicious dishes over the coming days. Will you be joining us for our Provence Driving Tour in 2025? 👇

Coming to you from Lake Como, Italy! 🇮🇹
1️⃣ Legendary Circuit, Legendary Drama: Monaco isn't just another race - it's a legendary showdown on one of the most iconic circuits in motorsport history. With its narrow streets, tight corners, and unforgiving barriers, this track demands nothing but perfection from the drivers. Get ready for heart-stopping moments and nail-biting action as they navigate the twists and turns of one of the most technically demanding races on the F1 calendar.

For many, the word Napoleon may conjure up images of great naval battles… but for me it’s more about great driving roads!
In the south of France, the iconic Route Napoléon is a legend among supercar drivers and is easily one of my favourite driving roads of all time.
Taking you from Golfe-Juan to Grenoble, through some of the finest scenery in and around Provence, there are few roads that compare to its ease, fun and beauty.
As we prepare to depart on our Le Grand Tour Provence tour this week, I’ve shared more of my thoughts on Route Napoléon over on our blog - https://www.ultimatedrivingtours.com/route-napoleon/

“Like riding a bicycle around your living room” – this is how former F1 driver Nelson Piquet summed up the experience of taking on the Monaco street circuit.
With tight lanes, 19 turns and 78 laps, Monaco is one of the most technically demanding races on the Formula 1 calendar, with drivers expected to make around 3,666 gear changes throughout the race!
It’s always an exhilarating event to watch – whether you’re metres from the action on a superyacht in Port Hercule or watching on TV around the world.
Where will you be watching the Monaco Grand Prix this year? 👇

What does farm-to-table *actually* mean? Just head to Ascona and book dinner at the magnificent Locanda Barbarossa at Castello del Sole – you’ll soon understand.
Dishes at this Michelin-starred beauty are made with ingredients from 140 hectares of the hotel’s farmland, producing organic vegetables, herbs, corn, rice, pasta, wine and more.
Other ingredients, such as meat and fish, are sourced from regional producers in the local valleys and boats on nearby Lake Maggiore.
To us, Locanda Barbarossa really is the embodiment of farm-to-table cuisine – have you ever been? Perhaps you can join us? 👇

Travel is an open book and there are no more hidden gems… or are there? 🤔
The truth is that finding exclusive hidden gems in the modern world of luxury travel is no longer easy. As soon as a gem makes it to a top ten list, it’s no longer hidden!
This is why sensible luxury travellers use experienced travel advisors who know the destination intimately, instead of travel agents who simply design itineraries based on the latest online trends.
When you invest in a holiday, you expect it to be perfect – and using an expert advisor such as the team at UDT allows you to unlock perfection and truly experience something bespoke, exclusive and off the beaten path.
