Visite Au cœur des courses hippiques

Description

Maybe a "day out at the races" suggests ladies in big hats at Royal Ascot. Well, you might just spot a big hat at Saint-Galmier racecourse. But mainly, you'll just see people enjoying the races and maybe having a bet.
If you're a complete novice, the behind-the-scenes tour is definitely for you.
We'll explain why jockeys go through the weigh-in, and why horses, like top athletes, undergo doping tests. We'll also offer you the chance to experience the action up close in a support vehicle. So, get ready, set, place your bets!

Because we all want the tour to be as enjoyable as possible, we advise you to take note of the following information:
- Reservations are required.
- For safety and clarity, the minimum age is 8 years old; minors must be accompanied by an adult.
- The entrance fee to the racecourse is included in the guided tour price.
- The tour route is not wheelchair accessible.
- Animals, even on leashes, are not permitted.
- Please exercise caution when moving around the stables and near the horses.
- The tour begins just before the start of the first horse race, and you are then invited to attend all the scheduled races to fully experience the event.
- Tour times are subject to slight changes.
- Depending on the tour schedule, it may be possible to have a meal on-site before or after the tour. Reservations are recommended and can be made by calling 06 29 60 99 84.
