Travel planning
Eurostar
London-Paris-London
parisforvisitors.com
This illustrated report describes journeys in Standard and Leisure
Select Class, with information on check-in on both sides of the Chanel. From Paris for Visitors.
Eurostar.com
The official Eurostar site has a journey planner and other
useful information, but it can be maddening to use. (Tip: Select the "UK" as
your country of residence if you live overseas. Fares will be converted into
your local currency when you charge to your credit card.)
Rail
Europe: Eurostar
our partner
If you live in the U.S., you may find Rail
Europe easier to deal with than Eurostar, although bargain fares don't
always show up on its pages.
