Pebble Beach car week isn't for budget travelers as prices get jacked for tickets, hotel rooms, even gasoline
Thousands of people descend on the normally quiet Monterey Peninsula coast for what has come to be known as Pebble Beach car week.Simply getting to the Peninsula is expensive, whether you fly or drive.
"It's expensive to come to the Monterey Peninsula, any time of year, but especially during car week," said Ken Gross, an author, classic car event organizer and a long-time judge at the Pebble Beach Concours. "People I know are staying as far as 60 miles away because they can't find a room or because what they do find is just too expensive," said Vogelheim, an automotive analyst.
To get into the Pebble Beach Concours will cost $375 for advance tickets, more at the gate. Entry to the Quail start at $950, though there's a more exclusive, $2,500 Patron ticket.
