Touareg 360°
experience: one
of the last big adventures begins
- 40-week
world tour starts on 18th July, 2004, in Alaska with five Touaregs
- Anyone
who's interested can join a leg of the world tour for a few weeks
On 18th July, 2004, five Volkswagen Touaregs will
leave Alaska
on a trip covering all five continents. In front of them lie thousands of
kilometres of adventure. The Touareg 360° experience is unusual as on
board the offroader are people like you and I – booked in as temporary
travellers. Anyone who would like to fulfil the dream of a once-in-a-lifetime
travel experience can take part. However, you must act quickly as spaces are
limited and are already partly booked up.
Each guest team (each with six people) will go on one
leg of the world tour. The journey lasts two to four weeks, depending on the
continent, and costs from 3 980 to 6 750 euros for boundless freedom. The Touareg
360° experience will finish in Wolfsburg (Germany) on 29th October, 2005.
The 14 legs of the world tour are as varied as the
countries of the world. After starting in Alaska, the tour sets out on its
first leg through the Rocky Mountains. This is followed by a trip through
southwest America to Baja California and then it's further south. The third
stage in the Touareg's log book is the Transamazonica in South America and then
on to the Andes and the Atacama Desert. The next group will then tour Patagonia
and Tierra del Fuego.
The Touareg 360° experience now changes
continent and moves across to Australia, where the trek continues from Sydney
to the outback and then through Western Australia. The first leg in Asia drives
through China and Mongolia, on to the legendary Silk Road and the Himalayas,
and then India. The caravan will reach Central Africa in August 2005. The next
destinations are the Okavango Delta and the Kalahari Desert. Immediately after,
we hope to travel from Nile to Niger, depending on the security situation in
this region. The route from Dakar to Wolfsburg marks the finale of the world
tour.
If you would like to discover the joys of travel and one of the last big
adventures, ring the hotline in Germany on 1100+49+0800-8938368 (0800/VWEVENT). The
Volkswagen Touareg are refueled and ready. If you don't feel so adventurous,
you can also receive information on this number on other travel experiences
with the Phaeton and Touareg.
