You may be wondering just how fast is this supper speed service? Well, on average a trip from London to Paris will take around 2hours and 15 minutes with the London to Lille service arriving in an incredible 1hour 20 mins which certainly beats any ferry service we have used and isn’t much slower than catching a plane!

Having used the Eurostar service ourselves a couple of times now to get down to France before driving through to Prague we can honestly say that we are very impressed with both the speed and the level of comfort. Compared to a airline flight travelling on the train is simply luxury. Another point of note is that unlike certain budget airlines travelling to Europe there are no major baggage costs to consider as you are entitled to take 2 cases and one item of hand luggage in with the cost. Also – while there is a small fee for paying with a credit card it if free if you can pay with your debit card which really helps to keep the price down.

Price wise, one of the great things about Eurostar.com is that they have constant special offers available to bring down the cost of your travel and families can often get reduced rates. At the time of writing, as long as you didn’t mind an early morning start it was possible to get a standard return ticket from London to Paris for just £69.00 which is amazing value for money.
