Rail & Motoring
If your client is looking for an alternative to air travel, a rail holiday is a convenient way to reach Central Europe in a relaxing atmosphere. Europe’s excellent rail network is unrivalled and travelling by rail also greatly reduces your ‘carbon footprint’.
For full fl exibility, why not suggest taking their car over to Europe? Take a leisurely drive past the many charming towns and villages or put your foot down and enjoy the Autobahn! If they don’t fancy driving all the way, why not take advantage of our excellent car hire rates?
Self-Drive Ferry Routes: A convenient way to cross the Channel is by taking one of the many ferry routes. Using a ferry can also save clients from the north the long drive down to the south. The transit time by car from France or the Netherlands to Western Germany is approximately 3 hours.
Eurotunnel: From Folkestone to Calais, the Eurotunnel is the quick and effi cient way to reach the continent. The service is frequent (every 30 minutes) and the journey time is only 35 minutes. Club class upgrades available.
Car Hire: People are discovering the ease and joy of travelling in Germany by hiring a car, especially with the rising popularity of low cost carriers. Germany’s excellent road and motorway network is very well maintained, has no speed restrictions (in some sections) and, most importantly, it is toll free.
We offer excellent rates from our partner, Sixt, one of the world’s leading car hire companies, enabling your clients to experience the ultimate holiday freedom - fl y across, pick-up any day and return any day.
EUROSTAR
For railway enthusiasts, or anybody living within easy reach of London St. Pancras or Ebbsfl eet, the fast and effi cient Eurostar service is a great alternative to air travel. Most destinations can be reached in one day if you depart on an early service. We offer Eurostar departures in both 1st and 2nd class from London St. Pancras or Ebbsfl eet to Brussels and onwards with Thalys/ICE services to Cologne. For 1st class passengers a meal is included in the cost and the service also offers reclining seats. Rail holidays, including accommodation, can be tailor-made to fi t your particular requirements.
Please note: Rail holidays may not be suitable for anyone with mobility diffi culties. Getting on and off trains with luggage, often in a short time, can be a problem due to high, steep steps and gaps between platforms and trains. Sometimes luggage has to be lifted onto overhead racks and at some stations, steps have to be negotiated with luggage.
