Getting France


There are many different ways of getting France, you can travel by air, by bus, or by train, all of them have enough capacity and the prices are also comfortable. You can reserve some direct passage, but other companies offer benefits on negotiation of special prices.

Now there is a easiest and exciting way to travel to France from Great Britain, with the Eurotunnel, inaugurated in 1994 now you can get France in approximately 35 minutes from Folkestone to Calais/Coquelles, you can take a car from there or you can take the classic train, the service is open 24 hours a day and the 365 days of the year.

Travelling by plane is a good option too, if you are in any of UK's regional airports it'll be cheap and easy to get to Paris, and not only the capital but also all the french cities. The competence always benefits the consumer and this is not the exception, flight operators are competing all the time for getting more passengers than the other one, the prices gets as little as possible in the market, specially when you are travelling to Nice or Paris.

There are several options available if you want to travel by train, Ports all along the south coast of England (Portsmouth, Southampton, Plymouth, Poole) will take you to Roscoff, Le Havre, Cherbourg, Caen and Dieppe in northern France, if you're travelling from London to Paris you can get there in approximately 2.5 hours, Eurostar provides a passenger service which you can join either in London at Waterloo or at Ashford in Kent. Ferries are very comfortable in France, they are equiped with restaurants, entertainment for adults and children, and places to relax.

Travel by sea is the relaxing option, you can enjoy the journey specially if you travel in summer, when the weather is perfect.

To have your passport valid is very necessary if you are planning to visit France, check if it is valid all the time you will be in this country.
