After four nights in Paris, we will spend two nights in Normandy before we travel to Angers where we will stay throughout the Le Mans race.

The next three days will have us visiting the Le Circuit de la Sarthe (Le Mans track) as well as the town of Angers. Monday, we depart Angers to visit Chartres and its Cathedral and on to Paris for one last free afternoon. Check out of our hotel and continue with your plans of either more travel or to the airport.  Hotels, ground transportation, tour tickets, all breakfasts, some meals, Le Mans general admission race tickets, and Corral tickets are included.  This trip is extremely limited so we have a very limited number of openings.
