Many sites offer a great way to get onto the continent and free-wheel around Europe. One way to get to Europe is by driving and the fact that you can get from Folkestone to Calais in just thirty five minutes means that you can then head off somewhere else such as the Italian lakes or maybe you can just spend the weekend in Paris. There are so many places to visit and so many things to do in Europe and the channel tunnel gives us the opportunity to get there in a really speedy and hassle free way; and you don’t need to worry about the weather interrupting your plans as you maybe would with a boat.

Weekends Away On The Continent.

The recent economic downturn has meant that most of us don’t have the money or the time to spare anymore. This should not mean though that we still can’t have the occasional break. You can nip over to the continent for a couple of days, find an ideal place to relax for a couple of days, and be back at our desk by Monday morning all relaxed and refreshed. You could even decide to take your kids away for a treat by heading over to Euro Disney for a few days which would make everyone happy. It is not expensive to head across the channel and to make it more rewarding, why not do some tax free shopping while you’re there.

Longer Trips.

You could even spend a couple of weeks heading around Europe if you have the time; why not take your car through the tunnel so that you can drive around a few different countries. The great thing about belonging to Europe is that we are free to roam wherever the mood takes us; no need to worry about visas. The single currency also means that we only need change our money once and not every time we cross a border.

On the lookout for Disneyland Paris tickets for your fun weekend away? Once you have the tickets, you may want to drive over, but you have to think about European breakdown cover. Your mind will be at ease once you have bought this cover. And don’t travel without European travel insurance.
