Planned 2025 Orange Blossom Tour Itinerary:
HERE’S A TASTE OF WHERE WE’re planning on GOING IN 2025*:
Day 1: Sunday
We’ll arrive at the Hilton Daytona Beach Oceanfront Resort and check in around 4:30pm. This resort is located about two and a half hours South of The Amelia, which wraps up right before our tour.
You’ll have some time to check out the beach or explore the amenities at this world class resort before we all meet for cocktails at 6:30 followed by dinner on-property.
Day 2: Monday
We will start this and every other day on the tour with breakfast on-property. From there, we will head North along the beach to the fabulous Brumos Collection for a private tour. Last time we visited, we were honored to have multi-time Sebring and Daytona winner and long-time friend of the magazine Hurley Haywood leading our tour.
We’ll grab lunch at one of our favorite local restaurants on the Intracoastal Waterway, or join Amelia Island Concours founder Bill Warner for lunch at his private collection.
On our way home, we’ll drive along the St. Johns River and through the many farms of western Flagler County.
We will meet for cocktails at 6:30 and then have dinner at another location on property.
Day 3: Tuesday
We will start today with a special treat: for the first time ever, we will open up our own private collection to the public. Here you can see our workshop, where we build all of our project cars, check out the latest car in progress and see our project car collection.
From there, we will head to the World Center of Racing, where we will get a private tour and be allowed to take our cars out on track for a few parade laps. Until you experience the banking at Daytona International Speedway, you have not really seen all that a race track can be.
Lunch will be at our favorite local Italian place, Tianos. From there, we will head south to the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse and the Marine Science Center, where we will learn more about the history and marine life in the area.
After that, we’ll make our way back to the resort, meet for cocktails at 6:30, and have dinner at one of our favorite local restaurants.
Day 4: Wednesday
Today we will head west to DeLeon Springs, where we will visit a private car collection.
From there, we will head through the twisty backroads for lunch in downtown DeLand, home of the historic Stetson University campus (alma mater of your hosts Tim, Tom and Nicole and the oldest continuously operating university in Florida).
After lunch, we will visit one of the area’s springs for a boat ride and nature cruise.
Dinner is on your own tonight, so either stay in the DeLand area, check out the local options in Daytona Beach, or just relax at the resort for the evening.
Day 5: Thursday
We will start today with a visit to Marineland, one of old Florida‘s first attractions. Here we will see a dolphin show and many other marine life exhibits.
From there, we will head to St. Augustine for lunch and spend much of the afternoon enjoying the history and shopping in America’s oldest continuously inhabited city.
On the way home, we have a brand-new private car collection to show you.
To say farewell, we will meet for cocktails at 6:30 followed by dinner at another location on property.
Day 6: Friday
We’ll wake up refreshed and enjoy one last breakfast at our host resort before going our separate ways.

“The Orange Blossom Tour gave us the opportunity to see some parts of Florida we weren’t familiar with and to drive some scenic, twisty roads we didn’t know were there; but one of the best parts was meeting new people who all shared a love for driving their sports cars.”
“I have to say that initially I was pretty skeptical that anyone could make a driving tour of Florida interesting, but that skepticism disappeared on day one.”
“My wife, Sue, and I have been on the Orange Blossom Tour twice now, and the organization and attention to detail have been five-star!”
