The fastest and most convenient (and possibly cheapest) way to cross the English Channel is by Eurostar Train through the "Chunnel".

Traveling to Calais from any major French city should also pose no problem, as there is TGV (high-speed) services to Gare Calais Frthun, just outside Calais. Eurostar was also limited by the lack of a high-speed connection on the British side. After the completion of High Speed 1(formerly CTRL) to London in two stages in 2003 and 2007, traffic increased. In 2008, Eurostar carried 9,113,371 passengers in cross-Channel-Tunnel traffic, a 10% increase over the previous year, despite traffic limitations due to the 2008 Channel Tunnel fire. Calais is one of the stations of train London to Paris.

The Eurostar can be reserved 120 days prior to the train departure date.
