Is there anything higher up on a car enthusiast's bucket list than driving a topless exotic roadster on a tour of the most beautiful and expensive cities in Europe? Super car [road trips](<https://www.thedrive.com/article/10723/this-guy-is-driving-a-mclaren-f1-from-london-to-spa>) are certainly attractive reasons to vacation across the pond and explore more of the continent than the usual tourist spots that congregate no more than a few miles from the airport. [McLaren Automotive](<https://www.thedrive.com/article/12069/mclaren-combines-technology-automotive-branches-to-become-mclaren-group>) is taking not one but two of its [570S](<https://www.thedrive.com/article/11015/is-the-mclaren-570s-the-ultimate-performance-bargain>) variants on one of these amazing trips, stopping at some of the hottest and prettiest spots in Europe to show off its entry-level super cars.

McLaren [announced](<https://www.cars.mclaren.press/en-gb/releases/478>) Friday that it is continuing its annual [Sports Series](<https://cars.mclaren.com/sports-series>) Summer Tour. This trip started in 2015 when McLaren drove a similar route to show off its original 570S, and again in 2016 to display the [570GT](<https://www.thedrive.com/video/6682/the-2017-mclaren-570gt-is-the-gentlemans-supercar>). This annual tradition is back in 2017 and is better than ever; this year McLaren will showcase the brand-new [570S Spider](<https://www.thedrive.com/article/12854/were-in-love-with-this-129-picture-mclaren-570s-spider-photo-gallery>) and allow test drives of the 570GT.

The 16-day tour starts on July 28th in Barcelona, Spain, and McLaren will stop in One Ocean Vell Port for the night. After a party-filled weekend, the [Sports Series](<https://www.thedrive.com/new-cars/11498/mclaren-570s-spider-drops-is-unquestionably-sexy>) cars will head to Ibiza and finish the drive through the rest of France by August 5th. They will then hit Cannes, St-Tropez, and few other French attractions before ending in Portosole, Italy on August 12th.

This trip reinforces McLaren's status as the people's super car company, doing away with the [exclusivity](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/6490/the-ferrari-j50-is-maranellos-latest-limited-run-supercar>) that companies like Ferrari love to cling to. McLaren will visit 7 cities in total and the entry-level exotics will be on display every afternoon, allowing anyone to get up close and personal with (even touch and sit in) the beautiful super cars.
