Probably a good idea to sign up for their newsletter, keep an eye out for newspaper offers and on here. There is a post on the holiday deals, bargains and special offer section for a day return at £23 which is pretty good for the tunnel.

Always worth comparing to the ferry from Dover, we went over with P&O last Saturday for £19 return, car and 4 people.

Is that price for a day trip only.

Do they do that sort of deal for 2 or 3 weeks?

That was for an afternoon return. I think you would be looking at least £100 for a 2-3 week return and that would probably be midweek and less popular sailing times.

DFDS are another option worth checking.

Hi

What you could do is sign up to their frequent traveller programme.

https://www.eurotunnel.com/uk/tickets/types/frequent-traveller/

You have to buy a minimum of 10 tickets, which last a year ...

Might be worth investigating?

Thanks Mark

I have taken advantage of the cheap po ferry deals in the past too - have got some good prices in the past. But than I do prefer the ferry but that just personal opinion.
