Overview

Pau has a truly unique atmosphere during the Historic Grand Prix race weekend and the whole town comes alive up for the event. As race circuits go, very few can offer such a breath taking atmosphere with such beautiful countryside and stunning mountain panoramas as a back drop.

This charming and characterful circuit is a must for any fan of historic racing and the Pau circuit layout has not changed since 1933.

If you would like to extend your trip, Pau's southern location in France makes it a great stopping off point for a longer European road trip. The mountain roads of the Pyrenees and Andorra are only a short drive away offering some truly spectacular scenery.

Just call us to tailor-make the perfect 2019 Pau Historic Grand Prix holiday!

Itinerary

3 or 4 nights by Car

Our 2019 Pau Historic Grand Prix tours are based on Dover to Calais crossings, departing on the Thursday or Friday and returning on the Monday. We can, if you prefer, reserve Eurotunnel crossings from Folkestone to Calais or the longer cross channel routes with Brittany Ferries. Alternative crossings and on board accommodation will incur supplements and you will be advised of the full cost before you confirm your booking with us. The longer crossings, particularly the overnight sailings, are extremely popular and we recommend you book early to secure your space.

Our four night prices are based on arrival in your hotel on Thursday and three nights on arrival on Friday. If you would like to arrive earlier or stay longer or travel via air - just ask and we can arrange this for you.

If you would like to travel out to France earlier and would like us to arrange accommodation for you or your group for additional nights on your journey down from the UK we would be more than happy to do so-please call us to discuss your plans on 0116 231 1222.

With its own motorway junction (11a M20), access to the Passenger Terminal couldn't be simpler. Prior to boarding the shuttles, you will pass through both UK and French frontier controls which means on arrival in France, you simply drive off the shuttle and onto the European motorway network.
