How to determine the prices for the Eurotunnel

Visit a portal like this. There you can also book the tickets for the Eurotunnel, if you have decided.

  • In the menu, select the day of arrival and departure as well as the number of passengers who want to travel with you. In the example, 03/13/2011 was selected at 10 a.m. and the return journey on 03/18/2011 at 10 a.m. There should be 2 people who are 27 to 54 years old and a child up to 10 years old. The outward and return journey should be made with a car that is shorter than 6 m and lower than 1.85 m and has no trailer. The ticket, which can be booked immediately, costs 238.04 EUR and can be booked immediately using a credit card. If you were to take the same journey on Monday at 1:47 am, the ticket would only cost 173.65 EUR. You can see that the prices for the Eurotunnel are very different. It is worth trying out different arrival and departure options.
  • By far the cheapest are day tickets, which are valid for a one-day outward and return journey through the Eurotunnel, which you can get for as little as EUR 50. But be careful, if you do not make the return journey, the price for a normal ticket is automatically due and immediately debited from your credit card. The price for a single trip can cost twice as much as that for the day ticket. So you can't save if you book 2 day tickets, one for the outward journey and one for the return journey, because as soon as you skip the return journey, it becomes expensive.
  • Remember that the inexpensive tickets are only valid for certain connections. If you have the train miss you have a problem. There are also flex tariffs where you can change the times, but these are much more expensive in the first place.

Determining the prices for the Eurotunnel is tedious because you have to try out many variants yourself. But it's worth it.
