YOU DRIVE
Makarora Return Drive
2-3 Hours
Your pick of a BMW 1M, 1M V8, E36 V8, E63 M6 V10 or E9x M3
A truly special drive along the scenic road between Lake Hāwea and Makarora, with some of the best flowing curves the region has to offer.
A stop in Makarora for a refreshment and the chance to swap cars for the return. (this depends what vehicles are on the tour on the day)
We then head back along the road in the opposite direction to see an entirely different perspective of both Lake Wanaka and Lake Hawea with surrounding mountains.
There are multiple stops at popular viewpoints and lookouts along the way, so bring your camera!
We can also venture further and visit the Blue Pools - another must-see in the area. This can be added on to the drive for an additional $135.00. Allow for an extra 1 hour for this.
Minimum age is 21 years old.
Additional Driver $99.00
Insurance excess can be reduced with the Drive Otago Crash Cushion.
