We continue our AMOC National journey together –
On our last day of the National we will all be heading to “The Bend” where we will be able to view the world class motoring track.
We have been given the wonderful opportunity to tour the 7.7km GT track one of the longest FIA Grade 2 permanent circuits in the world.
We will be driving 6 laps of the track at a controlled speed which will not require helmets and will not put our beautiful cars in any danger. At the end of the Tour section we will all line up on the grid for a magnificent photo of all the vehicles that have enjoyed the National.
Once we have completed the photo session, those who have chosen to stay on and do the track day will have the ability to unload their vehicles of luggage.
Those partners who are not participating in the track day may wish to take advantage of the coach provided to take them and their luggage to Monarto ahead of check-in to enjoy a drink on the veranda before preparing for the night’s festivities, with the rest of the group following on in due course.
After our fun day at “The Bend”, and maybe fitting in some local sightseeing, it is only about 40 minutes’ drive to the Monarto Safari Resort, where we will experience the thrill of the wild, combined with the comforts of world-class hospitality.
After check-in, those whose rooms face the savannah are likely to experience an amazing sunset and, as they face the Safari Park there’s every chance you will hear the lions roar in the distance, while the rooms facing the waterhole will enjoy dusk and will be first to see the sun rise.
After you settle in it’s time to walk on the wild side and “Dress to Impress with a Touch of Animal” before gathering for pre-dinner drinks overlooking the waterhole – where some animals may also enjoy a drink. You might like to wear a touch of zebra or some leopard print shoes, or you may like to go bananas with a whole outfit – unleash your creativity and let your imagination run wild! And there’s prizes for the best dressed!
We will then gather for a delectable dinner in the Acacia Room. During the evening, as it is the final night of the National, we will be awarding trophies and prizes won during the event.
In the morning we will say farewell to those who are returning home, and we trust you will carry many warm memories of our time together.
Those of us who are continuing with the Post Tour have the day to do whatever takes their fancy – some may stay at the Resort to relax and recover or maybe enjoy a spa. Others may wish to explore the Safari Park – discounted general admission cards are available from the Resort, but early booking ahead is recommended if you wish to enjoy any of the specialised activities – including the brand new multi-million-dollar elephant precinct which just opened this month for their five-elephant herd. Visit https://www.monartosafari.com.au/animal-experiences/ to find out more. You can also book Sunset Wildlife Safaris or Dawn Wildlife Safaris within the Resort itself at https://monartosafariresort.com/experiences/ while others may wish to venture further around the Murray Bridge area – refer https://southaustralia.com/destinations/murray-river-lakes-and-coorong/places/murray-bridge for more details.
Dinner that evening will be a casual affair at the Resort.
