I am looking for an economical way to travel RT from London to Paris. I am considering the overnight Bus on Euroline/National Express. What was your experience? I understand you need to get off bus, go thru customs and then I assume reboard bus to complete the trip to Paris bus station.......is that right? and how was it?

Hi Christine I would take the Eurostar, it takes 2 1/2 hours to get there and you can find a ticket for under $100. Go to http://www.raileurope.com to check out the times and prices. I use this sight all the time when planning a trip. If you do not like that idea look for budget airlines in Europe. You can get a flight most times for under $100. Good Luck Wendy

If you can commit to a nonrefundable ticket on a specific date, you can get a huge discount on a ticket about 3 months in advance. There are a limited number of tickets at budget prices and they sell out fairly quickly, but it is a huge savings.

Raileurope will charge you a bundle for a ticket. Go to the Eurostar site iitself, and tell it you are from UK. That way, it is in English and the prices are 1/3 less than the Raileurope site. http://www.eurostar.com/dynamic/index.jsp
