Planning my journey

[NIK]

I'm seriously thinking of going to Disney under my own steam next time rather than coaches but I've never planned such a long journey before. Does anyone know of a good website to help me plan the journey from home to DLP and back?

where are you travelling from and what types of transport are you looking at?

The obvious ones are www.eurostar.com www.easyjet.com www.poferries.com

Reid

Maybe to add to Reid's list www.eurotunnel.com

You can get a return trip with them for around £100 for your Car (including whomever is in it). You've a 30 minute (or so) crossing, and then from the France side you've roughly a 3hr drive to DLP.

I'm going to be travelling from Peterborough - I'm thinking of doing the whole journey by train but it's the danger of missing connections that's put me off in the past. I'm a hopeless traveller! LOL

The trains seem to be very frequent from Peterborough to London, so I'm sure you could choose one that would get you into Kings Cross with plenty of time spare to get across to Waterloo for the direct Disney Eurostar at 9.30 am.

Eurostar definitely looks like your best bet from Peterborough

We found the direct Eurostar very easy and painfree. As there are five of us, it is cheaper for us to travel up by train the day before and stay a night in London than travel up on the day itself but for just one it would obviously be cheaper getting an early morning train in and then catching the direct Eurostar. And if you book a Disney package you can use the Express luggage service where they take your cases to your hotel for you.
