Looking for a budget-friendly way to travel to Europe this winter? Look no further than Eurostar's flash sale! Eurostar, known for its convenient and efficient train service to popular European destinations like Paris, Lille, and Amsterdam, is offering a whopping £35 off selected routes to help you beat those January blues.
But don't wait too long to book your tickets – the sale will only last for a limited time, from January 3 to January 9. So if you've been dreaming of a cheap trip to Europe, now is the time to make it a reality.
Wondering which destinations are included in the flash sale? You can snag the discounted tickets for travel from London to Paris, Lille, or Brussels between January 14 and April 3, 2025, or from London to Amsterdam or Rotterdam between January 14 and March 28, 2025. Keep in mind that these fares may not be available on certain dates, and there are also some engineering works scheduled in March that may affect train operations. So be sure to check the Eurostar website for all the details.
It's also worth noting that until February 10, the trains to Amsterdam and Rotterdam will require a connection in Brussels. But with such great savings, a little extra travel time may be worth it.
Now, you may be wondering just how cheap are these tickets? Eurostar says the £35 fare is for a Eurostar Standard one-way ticket from London to Paris, Brussels, Lille, Rotterdam, and Amsterdam. Curious to see for ourselves, we visited the Eurostar website and were pleasantly surprised to find £35 tickets available. We were able to book a long weekend trip to Paris in March for just £35 each way, and a trip to Lille for the same price on the same dates. Just keep in mind that the discounted tickets tend to be for early morning departures, so some flexibility with your travel times may be necessary.
But don't worry, even if you can't catch an early train, there are still plenty of opportunities to snag a £35 ticket. For example, on Monday March 10, there are £35 tickets available for all train times. It's hard to believe that Eurostar has been serving passengers for over 30 years now, connecting the UK to mainland Europe. Since its launch in 1994, the high-speed train service has carried an estimated 150 million passengers.
Speaking of lesser-known destinations, have you ever considered taking a trip to Lille? This charming French city, with its Flemish heritage and vibrant art scene, often gets overlooked for more popular destinations like Paris and Amsterdam. But according to Sarah Ewing, who previously spoke to Metro about her experience in Lille, it has a lot to offer for a fun city break.
So, why not give Lille a try? Don't leave without visiting La Piscine de Roubaix, an art museum housed in a former swimming pool, or exploring the city's historic craft breweries. And for budget-friendly options, check out the Marché Wazemmes for delicious produce and unique gifts, or grab a meal at L'Atelier Street Food or Soho Urban Food.
