Your club. Your event. We do the work.
​​​​​Give your members something exceptional to look forward to —
without giving your committee something exceptional to organise.
​
Discovery Drives by Venture Bound is a turnkey event service for car clubs, owners’ groups and motoring communities.
Quite simply, you bring the members and we take care of everything else.
​
We create and deliver memorable driving experiences combining great roads, beautiful destinations, carefully chosen hotels, food, activities and the all-important social side.
​
Your club promotes the event to its members. Behind the scenes, Venture Bound plans, organises and delivers it.
​
To your members, it’s your club’s event.
For your committee, it couldn’t be easier.
Choose an experience. Make it yours.
​​
We have a collection of signature Discovery Drives already developed and ready to bring to your club.
​
Each combines the pleasure of driving with a destination and experiences worth discovering along the way.
​
Whisky Discovery Drive
Great roads, spectacular scenery and the opportunity to discover the people, places and stories behind some exceptional whiskies.
​
​
Champagne Discovery Drive
Take the road to Champagne for a driving experience combining beautiful countryside, fascinating producers, wonderful food and, naturally, some very special bubbles.
​

​
Gin Discovery Drive
A spirited driving adventure combining carefully selected roads and destinations with the opportunity to discover distinctive distilleries, makers and, of course, their gin.
​
​
Vineyard Discovery Drive
Beautiful roads meet beautiful wines. A Discovery Drive through vineyard country, combining driving, scenery, food and carefully chosen wine experiences.
​
​
These aren't simply itineraries. They're complete experiences which can be delivered for your club and adapted where appropriate to your members, dates and requirements.
​​
Or let us create something completely different
​
Have somewhere you've always wanted to take your members?
Or perhaps you know you want to organise a tour but haven't got much further than that.
That's fine too.
Tell us about your club and what you'd like to achieve and we'll develop the idea with you.
From a one-day driving experience to a multi-day UK or European tour, Venture Bound can create a Discovery Drive around a destination, theme or interest of your choosing.
​
You don't need to bring us a route.
You don't need to find the hotels.
You don't need to organise the restaurants.
You don't even need to have the idea completely worked out.
​
That's our job
How Discovery Drives works
​
1. Choose
Select one of our established Discovery Drives or talk to us about creating something bespoke for your club.
​
2. Promote
We agree the event with you and give your club what it needs to promote the experience to its members.
​
3. Drive
We take care of the planning, logistics and delivery. Your members turn up, get behind the wheel and enjoy the experience.
​
Simple for the club. Memorable for the members.​​​
Everything taken care of
​
A successful driving tour has a lot of moving parts. That's precisely why Discovery Drives exists.
​
Depending on the event, we can take care of:
-
Route planning, research and reconnaissance
-
Hotels and accommodation
-
Restaurants, lunches and refreshments
-
Distilleries, vineyards, attractions and private experiences
-
Event schedules and itineraries
-
Road books and participant information
-
Supplier liaison and bookings
-
Participant administration and communications
-
Club/event branding
-
On-the-road management and support​
Instead of relying on committee members and volunteers to spend months putting everything together, your club has an experienced event partner responsible for making it happen.
​Your identity. Our expertise.
​
Discovery Drives can operate as a white-label service, allowing the experience to be presented under your club's identity.
We work behind the scenes as your event partner, while your members enjoy an event that feels completely at home in your club calendar.
​
It gives clubs the opportunity to offer more ambitious events, travel further and provide members with experiences that would otherwise require a considerable amount of volunteer time to organise.
​
And because we manage the details, your committee gets something else that's often missing from a club tour:
​
The chance to enjoy it too.
​
It's about more than the cars
​
We love great roads. But we also know that the best memories from a motoring event aren't necessarily made behind the wheel.
​
They're the hotel nobody expected. The private tasting. The long lunch. The spectacular view around the next corner. And the conversations over dinner about everything that happened that day.
That's why Discovery Drives combines cars, roads, places, food, experiences and people.
Drivers, navigators, couples and friends are all part of the experience.
​
Because the destination matters.
​
But so does everything along the way.
​
