I've got some guys from work wanting to head to Monaco Grand Prix next year. From what the other guy's have learned, getting a hotel and tickets to the races is not going to be an easy task. Is this something that is even feasible? Are we going to have to spend an arm and a leg to get airfair (from western U.S.), hotel, and tickets? Are expenses high in that area (food, taxi, etc)?

Thanks for any advice ....

 

I looked into GP Tours for Monaco and the pricing was several thousand per person. Great location and all the trimmings, but way beyond my budget. A friend of mine went a few years ago and the best he could do was some hillside viewing far, far, away.

 

There are outfits, like the above mentioned GP Tours, and another named F1 Tours I think, that offer specific F1 race travel packages. They'd at least be a good place to start.

 

Great race to watch. I used Grand Prix Tours they are local for me. Phil Hill's (former World Champion ) daughter worked there and did our booking. Big money is required for anything you do at that race. Going to the casino's you have to wear a jacket and tie and they charge a entrance fee. You pay a entrance fee to lay on their crap rock filled beach. The talent was mostly good to look at but saggy for the most part. If you try to do this cheaply I think you will not be happy.
