Hi
Please could anyone recommend (from experience preferably) who you think is the best and most reliable Motorsports Travel Agent?

I would dearly love to take my two boys to the Italian Grand Prix and am looking for a complete package at a reasonable price. I appreciate we're talking F1 so the word 'reasonable' doesn't really apply but I'm sure you folks understand what I mean!

Appreciate any advice.

Thanks

Christine

Page and Moy from recommendations.

But the Italian is very easy (I have been a few times).

By train:

Fly, pick a hotel (staying in Como is popular and pretty), the taken the train to Milan. Very cheap, even if you take a fast train coming from Switzerland). Free shuttles from the station to the track. You can risk tickets at the gate (General Admission are ~€90 if I remember) or order in advance. Shuttles are free back to the station. When I last went, they weren't asking for return train tickets, insisted it was free.

By car:
Find somewhere within 50km to stay. Parking and traffic is very well organised on the day (most un-Italian). Quite a few camp sites offer day parking for a reasonable rate, just park there and a ~20 min walk in. Grab an espresso (standing up) in one of the cafes with locals. Generally everyone is very friendly. If you wear a Ferrari cap/tshirt, doubly so.

Great track, great race, lovely fans.

I always used LSA, Lynden Swainston and her team are very knowledgeable and helpful. More for accommodation as anyone can do flights themselves.

Used Motorsports Travel many moons ago - they were very good then and still going so must be doing something right.

Heard a lot of good things about Rob Burley @ Altitude Luxury Travel

I know Thomas Cook do some but have not heard any reviews.
