We did the VIP last year as it was included in our package from Recency travel. Watching the races from the grandstand was something I had always wanted to do anyway and that was included. We picked Friday which is probably the best day. At the tent Breakfast and lunch were self served and both were top class. Two bars there and drinks were included all day. Close proximity to the riders as they leave the course,high fives etc. All winning riders were on stage after the races and hung around for photos afterwards. Between races there were past and current racers telling stories and being interviewed. The TT trophy was onsite for picture taking after the Senior. I know it sounds expensive but after traveling so far (USA also) and saving up for years to get there it was well worth it, I'll never forget it.
