Once again we are delighted to be able to offer you a selection of tours to the 2009 Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp.

This will be a spectacular weekend of the finest turf racing with 11 Group races over the two days. The Arc is not only Europe's most prestigious race but, with the partnership between France Galop and The Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club, it has become the world's richest turf race with prize money of 4 million Euros. This festival of racing is a showcase of the greatest thoroughbred horses in training.

We offer total flexibility with regard to your choice of hotel, mode of transport and number of nights' stay, allowing you to "mix and match" to suit your requirements.

Our packages are fully inclusive, comprising escorted transfers in Paris on arrival/departure and from your hotel to Longchamp on race days, with racecourse admission provided. In addition, staff are on hand both in your hotel and at the course to ensure the smooth running of your weekend from start to finish. With flights from most of the UK's major airports, a selection of Eurostar trains, a wide range of 3 star, 4 star, 4 star Deluxe and Palace hotels and our exclusive arrangements at Longchamp, we are confident that ours is a Winning Formula! Whether travelling individually or as a corporate group we cater for every need.

As there are 8 races scheduled on Arc day we strongly recommend, for your own comfort, that you stay overnight in Paris after racing.

Food & Drink

EXCLUSIVE CATERING FACILITIES
We fully appreciate that a day's racing, however exciting, is also very tiring and that copious amounts of fresh air also work up an appetite! The public areas of Longchamp Racecourse provide only very limited catering facilities and, for this reason, we have developed such a wide choice within our own Pavilion Grandstand. In this way, your day's racing at Longchamp will be more comfortable, less tiring and, above all, more enjoyable!

PRIVATE LUNCHEON ROOMS
The increase in prestige of the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe weekend and the quality of racing has resulted in a demand from both individuals and companies for hospitality facilities appropriate to the occasion itself. Indeed, many people now consider Longchamp on Arc Day to be a major entertainment venue for Blue Chip companies.

Located on the ground and first floor of the Pavilion Grandstand, our Luncheon Rooms have been refurbished to a high standard. They hold up to 50 guests at tables seating 8 persons and may be booked on an exclusive or shared facility basis. This allows both companies and individuals to entertain their valued guests in an elegant, relaxed setting and to enjoy a splendid day's racing at a more leisurely pace.

Each Luncheon Room on the first floor is equipped with a private bar, TV monitors and betting stands. The Chantilly Salon, situated on the ground floor, is also equipped with private bar and TV monitors but the betting terminals are adjacent to the facility as opposed to within the facility.

Racing can be viewed either on monitors from the comfort of your table or from your reserved grandstand seat which, on the first floor, are accessed directly from the Luncheon Room.
