About this tour
Get behind the wheel of a Ferrari 488 GTB in Melbourne and experience what it's like to drive one of Italy's most accomplished supercars. This single-day rental puts you in command of a machine that refined the already-impressive 458 Speciale, combining raw performance with everyday usability. The 488 GTB represents a significant leap forward in the supercar world—sharper handling, more power, and the kind of presence that turns heads wherever you go. Air-conditioned comfort and comprehensive insurance are included.

What to expect
You'll collect the car from the rental facility and receive a full briefing on its capabilities and controls. The 488 GTB responds instantly to throttle input and braking—it's a machine built for precision rather than point-and-squirt excitement. Handling feels planted through corners, and the adjustable driving modes let you dial in aggression or civility depending on conditions. Visibility is tight compared to everyday cars, so expect a learning curve on dimensions. Plan your route beforehand; the car commands attention and petrol consumption reflects its performance credentials.
