UK to Monaco

4th to 9th May 2024

Travel to the world’s most glamourous historic motor racing event with a six-day tour through France to arrive in Monaco in time for the Historique weekend.

After a weekend of indulgence and fun, we have arranged a relaxing tour back to the UK through the western regions of France.

Over six days, we will travel to the foothills of the famous Mont Ventoux, before continuing our journey north to Figeac and then on to Brantome, on the edge of the Dordogne, where you’ll have two nights to explore the area which includes wine tastings, river cruises or cave and chateaux exploring or just take a moment to relax.

The final part of the tours continues north to the La Chartre sur-le-Loir area near the famous circuit of Le Mans, before a final push towards the Ferry Port at Caen and a sea crossing home. Again we have chosen beautiful accommodation for you and the best driving routes to ensure your Monaco experience for 2024 is as complete as it can be.
