If you’re planning to stay at a Waldorf Astoria hotel soon, you might have the one-of-a-kind opportunity to test drive a Lamborghini. The Waldorf Astoria Driving Experience for 2016-2017 offers guests the chance to get behind the wheel of Lamborghini’s top models, including the Lamborghini Huracan 580-2 and the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder + Avio. Guests will be accompanied by Lamborghini’s professional driving instructors on 30-minute outings along iconic local roadways.
Test drives will be available at 12 Waldorf Astoria locations worldwide, and the dates for the driving experiences will coincide with key events in the respective locations. The next event will be taking place at the Waldorf Astoria New York from September 8-11 during the US Open.
John T.A. Vanderslice, global head of Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, expressed his appreciation for the Lamborghini partnership in a recent press release. “The parallels between our luxury hotel and this legendary automotive brand will lend an even more bespoke experience to our guests,” he said. “We are thrilled to announce this year’s Waldorf Astoria Driving Experiences and our new partnership with Automobili Lamborghini, continuing our legacy of offering truly unforgettable, one-in-a-lifetime moments.”
For those who are unable to attend a Waldorf Astoria Driving Experience, the hotel will be offering immersive 3-D videos on their Facebook page which simulate the experience of driving a Lamborghini through scenic routes.
