Taking your own car to the Continent offers you total freedom and is one of the most convenient and economical ways of getting to the Continent! Plan a crossing time to suit your needs and enjoy the convenience of travelling to your destination with everything you need packed in your boot.

Eurotunnel:
With a crossing time of only 35 minutes from Folkestone to Calais, Eurotunnel offers the fastest Channel crossing with your car. Its reliable service operates round the clock , 365 days a year, taking the hassle out of travelling to the Continent. Choose from up to 3 departures an hour during peak periods - no other cross-Channel operator offers you more choice.
With its own motorway junction (11a M20), access to the Passenger Terminal couldn't be easier. Prior to boarding the shuttles, you will pass through both UK and French frontier controls which means on arrival in France, you simply drive off the shuttle and onto the European motorway network.

Whilst onboard, relax in the comfort of your own car during the short crossing. The Eurotunnel experience is simple and hassle free - no wonder they are the preferred choice for over 1 million motorists each year.
