I intend to organise a group tour to the V8 Supercars in China next year.
At this time the official calendar has not been confirmed but AVESCO have told me they expect to run the Shanghai round about the same time next year, definitely in June. Date will be confirmed mid September.
The format will be as follows:
Monday: Fly to Hong Kong; stay 3 nights in Hong Kong
Tuesday: Shopping in Hong Kong
Wednesday: Probably more shopping
Thursday: Travel to Shanghai
Friday: Touristy things and more shopping
Saturday: V8's
Sunday: V8's
Monday: Fly home via Singapore, option of 2 nights in Singapore
There will be an option to join the group in Shanghai on Thursday.
The number of days in Hong Kong will be negotiable so when you indicate your preferences, please tell me if you think it's too long. Maybe people would prefer to be in China longer to do the touristy thing. Either way, once the length is set, there will be no options to arrive a day later etc. The purpose of this is to get group discounts etc so we will all need to fly and stay together.
Options to travel from all State Capitals will be provided.
At this time, I expect this trip to cost under $2,000 per person twin share. I have made no real enquires, so obviously the cost of this may drop if we get a good response.
Details will be confirmed by the end of September incl costs, options, and of course the dates.
For your peace of mind, I will be using a travel agent to handle the bookings and money. Once the package is put together, I will talk to a reputable travel agent to arrange the bookings and to take deposits etc.
Ok, over to you all.
