Just a few highlights of the tour include stops in London, Paris and of course Le Circuit de la Sarthe (Le Mans Track). We will have professional guides with us the entire trip to assist with our travels. After four nights in London and 3 nights in Paris, we will travel to Angers where we will stay throughout the Le Mans race.

Check out of our hotel and continue with your plans of either more travel or to the airport. Hotels, ground transportation, tour tickets, all breakfasts, some meals, Le Mans admission and grandstand race tickets and Corral tickets are included.
