Im Currently in England, and looking to plan a 22 day Eurotrip, does anyone know how to get from England to Mainland (Paris) with the Interrail Pass? Or would I have to get a Ferry, Eurostar into Mainland Europe.

Many Thanks

Oz

Eurostar train is only 2 hours, 15 minutes central London to central Paris.

However, Eurostar is not covered by Interrail passes. It does, however, have a reduced rate on some Eurostar fares, but you can probably get it cheaper if you purchase way in advance direct from Eurostar—and if you know your travel dates are firm.

As Don says, 1st choice is Eurostar — by far the fastest, most convenient and most comfortable. If you can’t find a reasonable price for your dates on Eurostar, then look into a cheap flight. Check www.ryanair.com and www.whichbudget.com for cheap flights. Also check our “cheap flights” forum for more links and tips.
