Monaco GP packages - recommend??
Can anyone recommend a company that does good Monaco F1 GP packages including flights, transfers, hotel and viewing/balconies.. ?
I noticed that Thomas Cook Sport do this, but not sure I'd want to use a main-stream company like that ??

With somewhere like Monaco you are far better to do it yourself. Stay in Nice unless money is no object and train it in, and look for private apartments that people will rent space to watch the race from (Shangri-la building for example). Flights in and out with EasyJet when they first come on sale will also help keep costs down, or look for the late BA flights on the Sunday nights which will be held back to allow team members to make the flight - so you'll be in the same boat. Happy to help after 12 years in the sport...

We go every year, but did a 'there and back in a day' a couple of years ago.
Easyjet from Liverpool to Nice, Taxi from Nice airport to the station, then the train up the coast- 4 euros return.
We had seats in one of the grandstands opposite the swimming pool, great viewing; as they put the grandstand on the jetty you've literally only got 20 feet of water between you and the fence at the side of the circuit.
After the race we wandered around for a bit, got thrown off Philip Green's yacht (not before we'd downed loads of champagne though
) had dinner in Stars and Bars then flew back again.
We booked all of this on the Friday before the Grand Prix, as the guy who was supposed to take us on his expense account decided to leave his wife and children the day before for some girl who worked in the happy eater....
Anyway, it cost us £370 all in, everything included
