welder Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 eurotunnel very quick and efficient,the earlier you book the cheaper it is Fully agree. I was impressed with the sheer efficiency of the tunnel experience, no fuss, just drive on and, 25 minutes later, drive off into France. No messing. I hate messing.

cobleyn Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Never done the Chunnel....must have done 15 trips on the ferry. Never any fuss. Depends where you are going I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattgroves Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 do you pay a premium for a van on the tunnel as you do on a ferry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markww Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 We are off to juvigny on Friday night which is only about 3 Hours from Calais. We are taking 3 vans with 2 in each. We Booked our tunnel crossing about 2 months before and it Worked out £65 each. It's spot on for us, Southampton to Juvigny in about 6-7 hours.

welder Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 do you pay a premium for a van on the tunnel as you do on a ferry? yes It's not much more for a van when you consider the fact that passengers aren't counted as part of the cost. We had 5 people and 6 lots of gear in Big Red. I thought that, head for head, the train was cheap. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
