Free 63 page guide to driving to Europe in 2026 👉 https://wrongsideoftheroad.co.uk/guide
A step by step guide to travelling on the Eurotunnel, filmed in the evening on the Folkestone to Calais route. It takes you through the full process from start to finish, showing how simple and stress free it is to cross the Channel by train.
You see every stage of the journey. Check-in and ticket sales, the departure terminal, UK and French border control, the waiting area and boarding. You also hear the updated English and French safety broadcast, experience the crossing itself, and watch how quick disembarkation is in Calais. The tunnel can be busier at peak hours, but this shows how seamless it is, which makes it useful if it is your first time.
The Eurotunnel, also known as the Channel Tunnel, has linked the UK and mainland Europe since 1994. It runs 50 kilometres (31 miles) and has the longest undersea section of any tunnel in the world at 37.9 kilometres. More than thirty years on it still carries millions of cars, passengers and freight a year, and remains one of the fastest and most reliable routes between the UK and France.

THE FREE GUIDE
Everything that happens between your driveway and the other side. Which crossing to pick and what they really cost, what happens at the terminal start to finish, the first five minutes on the wrong side of the road, what you have to carry, speed limits, tolls, vignettes, clean air zones and taking the dog.
Checked against the governments that make the rules and the companies that run the crossings. There is also a page listing everything I could not confirm, which is the reason you can trust the other sixty two.
