We're a small, focused team on a simple mission: make it ridiculously easy to book and ride the Eurostar through the Channel Tunnel.
Every year, millions of people visit London. A huge number of them want to get to Paris, Brussels, or Amsterdam — and many don't realise there's a train that does it in about two hours, city centre to city centre, with no airport involved.
The ones who do know about the Eurostar often find the booking process confusing. Which site do you use? What's the difference between Standard and Standard Premier? Do you need a visa? What happens at the station? Can you bring full-size luggage?
We built Chunnel.uk to answer all of those questions in one place, and to make booking as straightforward as possible — with clear guides, honest fare comparisons, and none of the jargon that European rail sites tend to assume you already know.
We're based in London — the same city you'll be departing from when you take the Eurostar. A small team of travel enthusiasts and technologists who've collectively taken the Eurostar more times than we can count.
We know the platform at St Pancras, the café bar car, the moment your ears pop in the tunnel, and the thrill of stepping off in a different country less than two and a half hours later.
Transparency matters to us. Chunnel.uk earns revenue through affiliate partnerships with Eurostar and other rail booking platforms. When you book a train through one of our links, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This is how we keep the site free to use and the guides free to read.
We never inflate prices, add booking fees, or recommend a product because it pays us more. Our recommendations are based on what we'd tell a friend. For full details, see our Affiliate Disclosure.
