Eurostar City Breaks
Since November 2008, all Eurostar services from the UK begin from St Pancras International, where the new high-speed rail link has allowed services to be cut by at least 20 minutes each way. For example, London-Brussels now takes only 1h55m and London-Lille only 1h20m.
In addition to this a new Eurostar station, Ebbsfleet International, is ideally located in North Kent where 2,500 car park spaces, just 5 minutes away from the terminal, make travelling from here simple and convenient. Elsewhere Ashford has launched a new daily route to Brussels, leaving early morning and returning late afternoon.
Eurostar can transport you to the centre of Paris, Lille, Disneyland® Paris and Brussels from where you can get connecting fast trains to other Belgian cities including Bruges, Ghent, Ostend, Antwerp, Leuven and Mechelen, included in your ticket price.
So sit back, relax and let Eurostar take you to your destination in comfort and even faster than before!
Eurostar to France
Whatever you’re looking for in a short break, Paris has the answer and is a must for everyone at least once in their lives - although many of our clients return time and time again.
Vibrantly modern, yet steeped in industrial history and charm, Lille has worked tirelessly to become a popular short break destination, very fashionable with a reputation for fine cuisine.
