An F1 trip? Yes, please!

Picture this: you’ve just landed in Abu Dhabi, Monza, or Singapore, ready for an adrenaline-charged Formula 1 weekend. You’re excited for the roar of the engines and the buzz of the crowd – but instead of worrying about finding your hotel, figuring out transport to the circuit, or confirming whether your F1 ticket is even legit, you’re already sipping a cold drink poolside. Why? Because you booked a sports travel package with Thompsons. 

Here’s the short version: 

1. Stress-free planning: We handle the logistics so you can focus on the race. 
2. Guaranteed access: Your F1 ticket is official and your seat is confirmed – no surprises. 
3. Quality stays: A range of accommodation – tried and tested by us – is available on our website, suited to your budget and requirements. 
4. Expert support: On-the-ground and behind-the-scenes help when you need it most. 

Why a Sports Travel Package Just Works 

If you’ve ever planned your own international sports trip, you’ll know it can quickly spiral from exciting to overwhelming. From securing authentic tickets to finding hotels that aren’t three train rides away from the track, DIY can feel like a logistical obstacle course. 

With Grand Prix holiday packages from Thompsons, all the complicated moving parts fit together seamlessly. We combine official race tickets, carefully selected hotels, airport transfers, and optional extras like race-day hospitality into one streamlined package. The result? You don’t just get to the event – you get the best possible experience while you’re there. 

What Are the Benefits of a Travel Agent? 

In short: expertise, access, and peace of mind. 

Booking through a travel agent who specialises in sports packages like F1 holidays means you’re working with someone who knows the destination, the event schedule, and the insider tips. We know which grandstands have the best views, which hotels cut down your commute, and when it’s worth upgrading to hospitality tickets. 

Plus, travel agents have relationships with trusted suppliers, meaning you avoid the risk of counterfeit tickets, poor accommodation, or surprise hidden fees. 

What Type of People Use Travel Agents? 

The old stereotype of travel agents being “only for first-time travellers” is long gone. These days, sports fans who value their time and want a premium experience are turning to expert agents. 

We work with: 

• Corporate groups looking to entertain clients in style. 
• Groups of friends on a once-in-a-lifetime racing trip. 
• Solo travellers who want to join a like-minded crowd. 
• Couples who want to combine race day with a luxury holiday. 

The common thread? They all want a smarter, smoother way to travel – without drowning in admin. 

The Most Important Role of a Travel Agent 

While we handle bookings, tickets, and hotels, our biggest role is problem-solver. Flights delayed? We’ll rework your transfers. Need restaurant recommendations for post-qualifying dinner? We’ve got you. 

We bridge the gap between you and the complexity of international travel logistics, so if something unexpected happens, you’re not standing outside a sold-out event or scrolling through hotel booking sites at midnight. 

Do Travel Agents Save You Money? 

Yes – and more importantly, they save you value. While it’s true that a travel agent might not always beat the lowest online bargain, the difference lies in what’s included. A last-minute hotel in the wrong part of town and an unofficial ticket that doesn’t scan will end up costing far more than a well-planned sports travel package. 

Agents often have access to group rates, negotiated deals, and packaged inclusions that reduce your overall spend compared to booking each element separately. Plus, the time and stress you save? Priceless. 

Why Thompsons F1 Package Holidays Stand Out 

When you book your Grand Prix holiday package through Thompsons, you’re not just buying tickets and a hotel – you’re buying insider knowledge and support. 

Here’s what makes our trips different: 

• Official tickets only – direct from authorised sources. 
• Hotels personally reviewed and approved by our team. 
• Local knowledge to help you maximise your stay – whether that’s the best spot for post-race drinks in Monza or where to catch the fireworks in Singapore. 
• Flexible package options to suit your travel style and budget. 

Where Can You Go? 

Whether it’s the glamour of Monaco, the night-race excitement in Singapore, or the dramatic desert backdrop in Abu Dhabi, our F1 package holidays cover some of the most iconic races in the world. 

• Abu Dhabi: Yas Marina’s floodlit finale to the F1 calendar, complete with incredible after-parties. 
• Monza: The temple of speed and home to the passionate Tifosi. 
• Singapore: The only night street race on the calendar, surrounded by incredible food and nightlife. 

And that’s just the start – take a look at all our packages to make the most of F1 season.
