About CarChallenge
We are creating stories. Worldwide and all year round.
What is CarChallenge?
With every Challenge we are looking for special and unique routes, for challenges that aren’t always too obvious. It’s all about creativity and testing your ingenuity. But also about the amazement of driving through the most astonishing places of this very planet, and about being marveled by peculiar cultures in places normal tourists would never end up.
Jan Willem Koudstaal
The areas
We travel
We traverse regions that are far from commonplace. The world’s most famous and inhospitable grounds such as Siberia, the Outback, the Amazon, the Andes mountain range or the fields of Mongolia will be conquered.
The idea
Creating Stories
A Challenge is an experience that becomes a part of you. An experience never to forget, often craving for more. This is what sets Challenge apart from any other touring trip, we consciously choose for challenge and leave the driving of mundane roads to others.
For whom
For everyone having a passion for driving and willing to discover unique routes, areas and cultures.

The Europe Challenge

The Korea Challenge

After years of planning we made it. We can organise a group challenge to one of the most closed countries in the world: North Korea. Before we arrive in Pyongyang we drive through Europe, Russia, Mongolia and China.
Countries: East-Europe, Russia, Mongolia, China and North Korea
25 Mountain Passes
5 september tot en met 9 september 2020
Driving over 25 mountain passes is fun and exciting. But 25 passes in only four stages is almost top sport. We challenge you to conquer the most beautiful mountain passes of the Alps and to get the best both out of yourself and out of your car. Not only the well-known, but also the less known, the hidden gems, will be included.
Countries: Switzerland and Italy

We want to make CarChallenge more environment friendly. First of all we try to compensate our CO2 emissions. Secondly we bring capital to rural areas in underdeveloped countries.
- CO2-rights: In some industrial sectors you need to buy certain CO2-rights for every ton of CO2 you emit. By purchasing those rights ourselves, and by destroying them afterwards we can compensate part of our annual emissions.
- We organise events in rural areas where no tourists ever come. We bring capital and employment to those areas that need it.
