The Le Mans 24 Hours has long been acknowledged as the most glamorous, prestigious and toughest sportscar race in the world – one that can enchant, beguile and break hearts all with just one twist of the hand of fate.

It is a race that has been won by such motorsport legends as Jacky Ickx, Jochen Rindt, Didier Pironi, Derek Bell, Mike Hawthorn, JJ Lehto and Tom Kristensen – and one that has chewed up and spat out others including Sir Stirling Moss, Juan-Manuel Fangio, Colin McRae, Sébastien Loeb, Jacques Villeneuve and even seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Michael Schumacher.

The round-the-clock La Sarthe classic has been described by drivers the world over as the most arduous and mentally and physically challenging race there is, and such a mesmerising occasion should be experienced only in the finest style. That being so, expert tour guides Page & Moy have the perfect solution.

The experienced travel specialists have a choice of three-to-seven night packages for those looking to experience the magic of Le Mans in 2008, with a wide range of hotels on offer in addition to a campsite option should you wish to experience all the thrills, lights and sounds non-stop all the way through the night.

All grandstand tickets guarantee full access to the extensive general admission area, whilst the circuit village has a vast choice of exhibitions, shops and souvenir stands if you can bear to tear yourself away from the action on-track.

What's more, the hotel packages allow the opportunity to explore the surrounding area, stroll through the narrow alleyways whilst admiring the historic architecture of the mediaeval old town of Le Mans, sample the local wines, see the châteaux of the Loire Valley and soak up the atmosphere in the bars, restaurants and shops, which open from early morning until late at night during the weekend of the race.

Page & Moy have been running motor racing tours for almost half a century, since the company's first outing back in 1961 when 23 people travelled to Le Mans.

Prices for the 2008 tours begin from just £129. For more information, click here
