Autumn Escape

To Queensland

Tour 1

Friday May 9 - May 20


    • Our long social drive event for 2025 will be a 12-night adventure, zigzagging up to the Sunshine Coast and return, on nice, scenic, Porsche loving roads.

      Starting with a welcome, meet & greet night in the Hunter Valley, we have planned 8 driving days plus 3 rest days, ending with our farewell dinner at Bannisters, Port Stephens.

      The tour commences Friday 9th May, with the itinerary as below:

      Friday  9th  May  Hunter Valley               

      Saturday  10th  May Port Macquarie

      Sunday & Monday  11th /12th  Yamba Rest Day

      Tuesday 13th Ballina

      Wednesday & Thursday  14th / 15th Gold Coast Rest Day

      Friday & Saturday  16th / 17th Mooloolaba Rest Day

      Sunday  18th  June Toowoomba

      Monday  19th  June  Armidale

      Tuesday   20th   Nelson Bay

      The accommodation arranged is among the best available in the areas we are staying.

      Group dinners have been organised for the night after that days’ drive, plus of course, our meet & greet dinner in the Hunter Valley. Nightly meals have not been planned on each of the 3 rest days. All organised group dinners will be gastronomic experiences and located in the hotels we are staying. 

      There are plenty of lunch and/or dinner options to choose from on the rest days, particularly those in Queensland.

      The tour has a limit to the number of rooms being held for a period of time by our selected hotels. The Club has contracts with these venues to supply accommodation, breakfast* and parking.

      This event is restricted to:

    • Members only. Members taking a partner/co-driver on tour who is not a Club member (or not included as a membership ‘BUNDLE’), need to ensure membership is completed well before tour commencement.
    • Porsche vehicles only.
    • The total drive route covers about 3,100 kilometres – averaging just under 400 per day, or 42 driving hours – ave 5.3 per day. 

      For each driving day, suggested pit stops along the way will add to the daily time. We have planned a total of almost 11 hours of pitstops, averaging 80 minutes per day. 

      At our welcome night you will be provided with all the detail you will need to enjoy the tour, including route guides, a link to google maps, local area information and maybe some goodies.

      Our planned notes and route have us arriving at our new venues each drive day at around 3.30pm, - so plenty of time to relax before the night’s gathering at the bar, tell tall tales & enjoy a sumptuous dinner. The exception to this is our final day, where we suggest an early arrival after a reasonably short drive, to savour this wonderful venue and maybe enjoy lunch, before our ‘over-the-top’ final big-bash farewell dinner. 

      The price to register with the Club for this event is $1,220 per person, which covers:

    • The pre-organised nine group dinners.
    •  Breakfast in Ballina *.
    • All ancillary costs to stage the events.

    To participate in this event, first, you must register with the Club’s on-line system. Secondly, you must make your payment direct to the Club’s bank a/c, listing the Club’s event code plus your (members) surname. Details are below.

    Once registered and your payment is received, we will release to you the details of the venues, rates and booking codes for you to make your own accommodation reservations. We suggest booking immediately you receive the booking details to avoid disappointment as the venues are only holding rooms for a short time.

    Our selected venues have provided packages that include breakfast (with two exceptions) and parking. They have their own specific procedures to make accommodation reservations. PLEASE, do not attempt to make your reservation by any other method.

    Breakfasts for both days at Mooloolaba are your own care – there are multiple options *.

    Our estimate of your combined accommodation, breakfast and parking costs, for you to pay direct to the venues, is approx’ $3,850 per couple / $3,600 single. Some venues have provided accommodation upgrade options.
