Hello all.....
I'm posting in hopes of getting advice from some of you more experienced LeMans attendees...
I will be attending my first LeMans this year, a life long desire. I am currently planning on flying direct from Calgary to one of the London airports, but that is as far as I have gotten with plans. I understand there are many activities in LeMans the week prior to the race, so I would like to be there for those.
Where I would really appreciate tapping the collective experience is in regards to best way to travel to LeMans (the Sunday before??), suggestions on accommodations, general suggestions that will help me get the most out of this trip.
I recall seeing packages advertised in Autosport last year, is this a good way to go? Are there tour operators to be avoided or highly recommended? If I make my own arrangements, what hotels/motels (and remember I'm a Canadian, so there may be differences in how hotels/motels operate). Should I arrange my own car and ferry? Or take the channel tunnel train ?? I just don't know what would be the best approach.
Thanks for any insights, suggestions, recommendations you can make....
