On any self-drive holiday to the continent, the adventure starts with the journey! Whether it's a short hop from Dover to Calais, a more leisurely trip to one of the ports in Brittany or a mini cruise to Spain, ferries offer a relaxed way to travel and help to get your holiday off to the best possible start.
If you don't fancy the ferry, then of course there is always the Eurotunnel, which will put you on foreign soil in little more than half an hour. All of the trains are air conditioned and have plenty of room to wander around during your crossing.
