At first glance, our Classic Motorsports Empire State Tour looks a lot like a driving tour of New York’s stunning Finger Lakes region, and you’d be correct–but there’s so much more in store than driving.
September 6-11, we’ll lead you to a one-of-a-kind exploration of the Finger Lakes, including significant historic sites, exclusive access to private car collections, hand-selected dining experiences and, of course, plenty of twisty back roads to enjoy from behind the wheel of your favorite car.
And, unlike some driving tours, our Empire State Tour features a hub-style structure that sees each day’s adventures begin and end from the same hotel–in this case, the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel in Watkins Glen, New York.
You’ll also receive turn-by-turn navigation through custom-programmed GPS units, professional photography of you and your vehicle, plus a judgment-free, friendly group of up to 30 couples.
For a taste of what to expect for this year’s tour, here are some highlights from the 2025 Empire State Tour:
A private cruise down the Erie Canal
Visits to the fascinating Finger Lakes Boating Museum and the world-famous Corning Museum of Glass
The chance to drive the legendary Watkins Glen International
A stop at the breathtaking Taughannock Falls
