    Do you know in advance whether it will be the Eurotunnel or the ferry? What decides this?
    Having done it both ways, which do you prefer? (Obviously there is a difference in time, but if you're committed to taking the bus between the capitals, then time is probably not your chief concern!)

      @SilentTraveler1  2 роки тому +22

      I like your relevant comment... I prefer the Eurotunnel because it's a unique experience as it's a masterpiece of heavy industry. Ferries are everywhere. As you said time is not my concern, it's the experience.
      You can't know in advance until you ask the driver. During pandemic they tend to only use ferry.

      You need to have a certain amount of skill to drive any large vehicle, but it's not anything unusual. You find after a very short drive that you become accustomed to it.
      The only time I've ever found it a little disconcerting and it took time to get used to it was when our British coach failed near Compiegne and our company arranged a left hand drive coach; after a long time driving in UK and Europe you get used to it, but now with a LHD in Europe it's completely different and you have to get used to it again. But I survived it- and so did my passengers before you ask.

    The ferry crossing is always a more civilised and pleasant way to cross the Channel/La Manche. Tunnel is quicker but frankly very boring. Nice video. Good to see the driver at work.

    • @derekstuart5234
      @derekstuart5234 2 роки тому +1

      As a frequent Channel crosser- as passenger, driver and more lately a transport manager, I always found it quicker to take the ferry. Why? Your passengers want to stop off somewhere for a break, toilet, cigarette, food... you can combine the Channel crossing and break together on a ship or you can go via the sewer and still need to spend an hour or so afterwards.
      When I used to organise Eurolines duplicates I used to always get to the destination before the main service as they nearly always went by sewer and we went by ferry.

    What a great video, thanks for uploading. That brought back memories. I used to drive that route for Eurolines in the summer peak when they hired in extra coaches, occasionally around Christmas time too. Also similar routes many times taking people out on holiday.
    Then 10 years of local buses and another 10 years driving a desk in a depot.
    Yes, that brings back memories- the coaches are flashier, but we had good times back then too.
    PS in my experience (which is a little out of date) we found that going by ferry was faster as when we suffered the euro tunnel, people still wanted to stop for a break, for cigarettes, food, toilet, fresh air- but when we went by ferry they did all that at the same time as we crossed. I accept I'm in the minority viewpoint there.

    I see that people still use a ferry to cross the Channel to and from France. I remember the so-called boat-train method during my first trip to Europe in July '74. After two weeks in England, my group of special ed adolescents and young adults took a train from either Waterloo or Victoria station to Dover, exited the train, and boarded a ferry to cross the Channel and debarked the vessel in Calais. We then boarded another train for Paris, and exited the train for a bus that took us to our small Paris hotel. One big problem with all this travel: our luggage didn't make the train between Calais and Paris, and we had to wait until after an included dinner for the luggage to be taken from the pier in Calais and shipped to our hotel.
    Great video!! I would have liked to have watched the bus, car and lorry pax and drivers enjoy eating, drinking, gaming and shopping aboard the ferry. I'm surprised that there were no bathroom breaks on the highway between Paris and Calais, and that pax were somehow able to hold their pee or poo for over two hours while the bus rode the highway to the Channel port. Speaking of the gaming area and the duty-free shop aboard the ferry, did those venues every open to patrons while the ferry was en-route to Dover?

    Great trip. Something surprising me are, the route using ferry instead tunnel, and no rest on the highway, only rest at Ferry. Wait, Irish Ferry? That's long journey from Ireland to France. When I see bus crossing strait by ferry, it's remembered me in my country also doing the same. Even some buses crossing by ferry more than once in my country. Next how about bus trip in UK? Or ferry crossing to Ireland.

      Your first couple of trips are going to feel a bit odd for the first couple of miles, but you get used to it very quickly. Once you've done it a few times you don't even think of it when you get off the ferry.
      The only time I've found it a little disconcerting was when our British registered coach went technical near Compiegne and our company hired a local coach for the day while ours was fixed. Now you're quite used to driving a right hand vehicle in France and they bring you a left hand drive vehicle- because it is something that most people won't experience, it's not something you really prepare for and that's when it becomes more interesting- especially as it was a manual.
      But seriously, even in a car, driving on the wrong side of the road can be a good experience.
