How to unlock the The Tourist achievement in DiRT 3 - Definitive Guide

You can get this in any race by racing these maps over and over again, but if your lazy like me you can use a little trick.

I clicked Time Trial, then find Monte Carlo, then you need to select the track 'Route Des Anges'.

Drive along the track and do the first hair pin, then do the second hair pin, then if you keep driving the road will sweep left. DO NOT TURN. Just let your car drive straight off the cliff. It will keep respawning and driving off the cliff.

Use an elastic band or some tape to secure the trigger and leave it for an hour or two until you have the achievement.

Simples!

Edit: Looks like the video is now unavailable. Ill leave the link in case the owner makes it visible again.

Look below for an idea.

Just did this at the spot described/shown. I had only played through once on dirt tour so I figure I needed 53 miles. I got the achievement in time trial around the 85 minute mark, for those interested in just how long it will take.

That's nice! Thanks a lot. Unfortunately I have no wired controller so can't leave it always turned on while rubber banded, so I had to press some button each 10-15 minutes.

It took somewhere around 250 minutes to unlock from the scratch

better just reversing at the start of the stage
you go longer, meaning more distance between resets

All The Monte carlo Events Distance if you complete them once from the dirt tour add up to 47.3 miles so either participate twice and a bit of just keep racing the monte carlo tracks.

The Extra Miles can be obtained online. ( Thanks To azGRIMES for this addition to the solution)

Also another point raised, is that the achievement unlocks mid race, so if you wished you could rubber band your controller on a hairpin and grind it out.(Thanks To Spilner for this Addition)

These miles can be done in any game mode including time trail (Thanks to captincrampy89 for this addition)

Hopefully this helps, if negative vote comment why? so the solution can be improved.

Yep, this can be done on time trail. I had to do it this way because the dirt tour always crashes in-between stages!

This was not nearly as helpful as the other guide listed. I prefer the automated method to driving the tracks manually.

Can you confirm that you can get the rest of the miles done in Online Jam session?

Yup I just got the achievement while doing Jam session. I did all the tour races, then hopped online and got it in about 10-12 races I believe.

Worth mentioning that it pops upon driving the 100th mile mid race, so if you wished you could rubber band your controller on a hairpin and grind it out.

Probably negative voted because you haven't gotten it yourself. I know it's straightforward, but I don't think people appreciate you giving advice on something you haven't done.

This is a cumulative achievement across all game modes. After completing the 7 events in Dirt Tour, you'll be about half-way done with this. Now you can choose to play online or single player time trials for the remainder. The achievement will unlock while you are racing.

Getting through all the new Monte Carlo DiRT Tour races once will get you near enough half way to this total. For the rest I would just suggest heading online and playing jam session rally events, since you can dictate what tracks you join or select if you make your own game. You can go for "French Connection" and avoid having to boost it afterwards if you want since you will need to do a good bit of racing on these tracks anyway.

You need to drive 161 km on the Monte Carlo slopes.

It will take just over two full playthroughs of the Monte Carlo races.
