The Grand Tour is coming to an end after an action-packed run, with the final special One for the Road taking Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond to Zimbabwe.

The trio have picked out cars that they've always dreamed of owning – those being a Lancia Montecarlo, a Ford Capri 3-litre, and a Triumph Stag – to traverse the terrain, which takes them to a "strangely familiar" island.

Indeed, viewers who have been following the motoring enthusiasts since their Top Gear days may also recognise their final destination, which puts a fitting bow on more than two decades of outrageous adventures.

Clarkson said that "the whole trip" was poignant for the presenting team, including hours of "reminiscing" – much of which had to be cut for time – although the broadcaster wasn't overly misty-eyed by the end of the shoot.

"I was surprisingly unemotional in a weird way because I can see James and Hammond any time I want to, they’re only a phone call away, and I’m sure we will," he told press.

He also acknowledged that his other Prime Video hit, Clarkson's Farm, helped soften the blow of ending The Grand Tour as the two productions share a number of the same crew members.

The Grand Tour: One for the Road is now streaming on Prime Video, having screeched onto the streaming service on Friday 13th September 2024.

The series brings an emotional end to more than two decades of collaboration between Clarkson, May and Hammond. Filming for the episode took place in September 2023, meaning its spent a long time in post-production.

The Grand Tour locations

The trio have previously filmed in far-flung locations such as Colombia, Vietnam and Switzerland – and this time will be no different.

The newest instalment will see the trio head back to Africa. February saw them visit Mauritania, country in the Northwest of the continent, and the final episode will take them to Zimbabwe.

Speaking of the location, Clarkson said: "I love deserts, so I've always wanted to do the Sahara, but it's difficult to go there; you can't go to Mali or Libya or Algeria or Chad. You can't go to the top of Nigeria.

"And then it was really a question of finding the most inappropriate cars for trans-Sahara travel, and I think we did a pretty good job on that."

Is there a trailer for The Grand Tour: One for the Road?

Yes! The trailer was unveiled ahead of the series release, and features footage from the special as it marks the end for the trio on screen after 22 years.

At the end of the teaser, Clarkson says: "So, for the last time - here we go."
