2024 24 Hours of Le Mans

!!NEW DATE!!
Do you like Cars?  Do you like Travel?  Then join the California Automobile Museum and Good Carma Travel for this awesome tour to France for the 24 Hours of Le Mans race!

The original plan was to be at the 2023 event – for several reasons, the 2023 event was completely sold out early, a record sell-out for the event.  We are now going to get ahead and start the process for 2024 NOW!  If this event is anywhere near the top of your To-Do list, we encourage you to place a deposit with us NOW.

We have several trip options:

·        Attend the race only (Gold or Platinum – see below)

·        Add on spending a few days in Paris ahead of the race

·        Add on a post-race visit Normandy beaches, Mont St Michel, and Caen

For the race logistics, we are partnering with The Grand Prix Club Inc.  TGPC has over 40 years’ experience in Motorsports travel, and already has charter coach, hotel and race ticket packages organized.  The partner arrangement supports the Museum, and participants benefit from their excellent service.  There are two race packages:

·        Gold

o   Coach transfer from Paris to Le Mans

o   Hotels

o   Hotel to race transfers

o   General Admission + Reserved Grandstand tickets

o   Race Club hospitality enclosures at track with race viewing (available food/beverage Saturday & Sunday)

o   Dinner Saturday

o   Monday transfer to Paris (for those doing race only)

·        Platinum

o   Coach transfer from Paris to Le Mans

o   Hotels

o   Hotel to race transfers

o   General Admission + Reserved Grandstand tickets

o   Weekend VIP Hospitality at the track with food and continuous full open bar including champagne included. Top quality catering with sit down table service for Saturday lunch and dinner and Sunday Lunch

o   Saturday and Sunday race viewing from 2 locations plus shuttles to 3 corners around the track

o   Monday transfer to Paris (for those doing race only)

o   Optional: pit pass/tour Saturday and weekend paddock pass for $650 pp

 

For those wanting to take advantage and spend some time in Paris ahead of the race, we will arrange 3 to 4 nights in Paris and include tours of the Le Bourget Air Museum & Conservatoire Citroen.  You will then have 2 days to enjoy traditional Parisian sites at your own pace. 

If you prefer to extend the trip after the race and take in Normandy, we will stay in the Tours, France area to visit Musee des Blindes (the largest armored vehicle museum in Europe) nearby.  The we spend 5 nights in Caen and have 2 days for touring Normandy D-Day and other cultural sites, a day trip to Mont St Michel, and then return to Paris for a night ahead of traveling home. Our ground transportation will be via chartered coach.

Pricing is not finalized at this time – we can provide some guidance on costs based on what we had planned for this year.  Call for those details.
