Eurotunnel - http://www.eurotunnel.com/ukcp3main

Book the Chunnel early as it gets more expensive nearer the departure date.

Cheap Ferries - http://www.cheap4ferries.com/ferry-to-france.aspx?ref=AFO21&referrer=96&CMP=KNC-OS7799149433&gclid=CPX_gPS5h5ICFQHmlAod6BdA_A

Speed Ferries - http://www.speedferries.com/?source=google&gclid=CKCpkqS6h5ICFQ1rMAodMiRj9g


I'll keep updating this list - if you have any recommendations please let me know.

Matt

Great for starting your holiday trip relaxed. aweful for the price of the cabin ( unless shared).

Thanks Matt

How much in advance is 'early'? and are prices significantly affected by the day of travel? or the time of day/night?

Not exactly a tour - just a hop over the pond... but going to a gig at Wembley on Thursday 26 Jun (after a day in the city at a conference!!) then need to be in Belgium for this http://www.graspop.be/ on Friday 27th.

Not sure whether to try and make it to France 'Tres Apres L'Huere de Slombre' and kip when we get there? or to crash in good old London and trust ourselves to get up before mid-day for the trip over..??

I have seen the price change from morning to afternoon close to the departure date.
