Celebrate two decades of automotive history and scenic drives with the 20th Anniversary Route 66 Tour in Aurich! This special event is crafted for enthusiasts of classic cars and convertibles, offering a relaxed, stress-free weekend focused on exploring historical sites via charming country roads. With a strict limit of only eight vehicles per tour, expect an intimate and personalized experience.
Prepare for a journey through the heart of East Frisia, where history comes alive. The tour is designed as a leisurely cultural experience, covering approximately 200 kilometers daily on smaller roads, away from the hustle of main routes. You'll follow in the footsteps of powerful East Frisian chieftains and legendary pirates, visiting castles, manor houses, and historical meeting places that often remain inaccessible to the public. Highlights include a unique crossing on a hand-pulled ferry and navigating Germany's narrowest car bridge. Enjoy regional culinary delights and scenic landscapes, from fenlands to coastal dikes.
