Foothillfamily Posted August 5, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hello Looking for feedback from anyone who has sailed with Windstar on the Monaco GP trip. We are booked for May 2016 and very excited! Did you buy your own race tickets or the package from Windstar? Was there any issue with access to a tender and finding your seat? Thanks!

mominhouston Posted August 5, 2015 #2 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I cannot comment on the package but can share that we left on a Windstar cruise the day after GP this year and the ship was docked. No tendering in Monaco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucanbritz Posted August 8, 2015 #3 Share Posted August 8, 2015 We did the Monaco GP cruise on the Star Pride last year. It was a Grand Prix themed cruise, so everyone's cruise fare automatically included the GP tickets, which we received while on the cruise. We had no say on seat selection - they just had a stack of tickets and pulled from the top of the stack as each party presented themselves (we had to line up to get them). On our cruise we were in port for the whole weekend, so we were able to watch the qualifying and the support races. The ship was not docked and tenders started running early in the morning for those of us keen not to miss a minute of the event! They even gave out packed lunches to those who wished to have them and their delivery coincided with the timing of the first tender. Windstar had arranged for a guide to lead us from the tender area to the race course - about a 30 minute walk, I think - and they took us to the entrance of our stand. We took note of the route taken and walked to and from the track on our own after that. Monaco is definitely one of the Grand Prixs that is on all F1 fans' bucket lists. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the race with the gorgeous backdrop of all of the mega yachts in port and loved having the opportunity to walk a portion of the track the evening before the race, while taking in all of the glitz and glamour. Hope you enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
