Hello all,

I will be looking for a way to get from Paris to Northants. about 18 July.
The 2 localish airports are Birmingham and East Midlands.

I looked at the 1 way flights, and to be honest, they look very expensive for what they are.

I then thought about Eurostar, but that was expensive also, at about 180 Euro.

So is there any other options, I was thinking train from Paris to Calais, the foot passenger to Dover, then train or National express to Victoria coach station, where I could also get a coach to Northants>
Sure it would take some time, but time is what I have loads of at the moment, just really need to trim the pennies.

Hi Luke,

How to get from Paris to Calais or Dunkirk?
The ferry is fine as a "walk on passenger"
Then need to transport from Dover to East middlands.
Any suggestions?
National Express?
