Travel by Eurostar passenger train to Paris

The Eurostar is a passenger train that will take you to Paris from London very quickly, but do not be confused with the present Eurotunnel, which is the shuttle train, which also allows cars and buses to travel through the Canal.

If you do not want to take your car abroad or who are not like flying, the Eurostar is a great alternative with less complications and no baggage weight restrictions, in addition to reaching the heart of the city of Paris from the UK in just about two hours.

The Eurostar used to depart the station Waterloo, but now departs from the historic Victorian St. Pancras Station in London and becoming history as train station Gare du Nord Paris France.

St Pancras station has been renovated to its former glory, including a replica of the original station clock in place and is the starting point of your holiday to France so be sure to allow time to experience this fantastic building with its incredible feature of a steel and glass train shed that was actually the largest enclosed space in the world when built and enjoy a drink under this structure in the longest Champagne bar in Europe.

There are also shops and cafes at St Pancras International station with free WiFi connection, more in the departure lounge facilities are available for recharging electrical items such as laptops and car number on the Eurostar also have the power sockets to plug in items such as a phone mobile games like the Nintendo DS. However, from 2008 no WiFi on the train and be charged for this service at the Gare du Nord station in Paris.

When it comes to book your Eurostar journey that can have these sent to an address in the UK, Belgium or France, or you can arrange to collect these from the box office just before the start, but early booking, which can make up to four months ago, is likely to get a good deal and choose the seats you want.

Yes, you can choose exactly which seats you would like, if you want not only first class and lunch with drink or second class is known as Norma.

The shape of the seats are arranged is different between the cars with some style is air, while others are placed so that you can look at each other. Some even have tables, and this is great if traveling with family or friends is also easier if you're with small children and they have room to play. Also, if traveling with small children so you may want to be near any front or rear of train, and that's where the baby changing rooms located and of course you can also choose a window seat to admire the French countryside before arriving in Paris.

Obviously, is a good idea to look at one of the detailed plans that are available to choose where you'd like to sit down and yet keep in mind that if you do not book through Eurostar and going to one of many online businesses, then you may be able to choose specific seats.

Eurostar operates every day except 25 December and because they run every hour, you can choose the time of day or night to travel, but some off-peak times are a little more cheaper than others. Also, children under four are free if not occupying a seat and there is a price reduction for children up to age eleven.

But instead of going to Paris you can also use the Eurostar to get to Brussels and the day of this normally stops at the city of Lille, which is the capital of the Nord-Pas de Calais, France. Furthermore, in the summer on the set days Eurostar operates a direct service from London to Avignon in the Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur and in shaping day during the ski season with a service directly to the French Alps for the ski resort in France.

Now we know that this is probably a silly point to make, but do not forget your passport as you still have to go through passport control, but your input is much faster than when they are flying and Do you keep your luggage with you at all times, so although there is no weight restrictions in a suitcase, you need to make sure you can lift!

The Gare du Nord train station in Paris is also a major connecting point for other destinations in Europe such as Germany, so it is a very busy train station, but if you are thinking of staying in Paris, then to leave, can pass through the main lobby and on the streets of Paris and give a walk or go to the taxi rank just outside the station. Alternatively, if you are down in the subway station ready to take you to another part of Paris.

So thanks to the wonders of engineering and technology, the journey between London and Paris is a convenient and comfortable way to travel, whether for business or pleasure and memorable holiday in France.
