A sightseeing trip round the M25 planned by a Brighton coach company has proved so popular an extra tour date has been scheduled.
Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company claims the motorway tour looks like being one of its most successful ever.
"It is not a a boring road at all - you see all sorts of fascinating things," said spokesman Roger French.
But Andy Noble, spokesman for Caterham Cars, just off junction six, said: "To go on it for pleasure is beyond me."
The bus company, which also runs day trips to tourist attractions such as Blenheim Palace, Beaulieu National Motor Museum, Bath and Bluewater shopping centre, included the M25 tour in its 2012 brochure earlier this month.
The planned date was 11 October but another date, 22 March, has now been added.
Mr French said the motorway was "absolutely fascinating".
"It goes through six home counties and you get a whole taste of the variety of London.
"In Essex you come to Epping Forest and coming round by Heathrow you see the planes coming in to land."
The 117-mile (188km) motorway, which opened in October 1986, has been described as "the UK's biggest car park".
