The quickest and easiest way is always by air. No matter where you are in the world or which part of France you desire to go to, there is always a plane travelling to and from. But if you can, and you’re coming from abroad, take more time to travel to France and cruise.

If you are coming from the UK, there is no better way to get to France than by Eurostar, or Euro tunnel. Departing from Kings Cross St Pancraas, the Eurostar takes just over two hours to get to the center of Paris.

From other european destinations, its easy to get to France by rail and coach.

There are a lot of really fine cruise ships and lower key affordable cruise ships to choose from. Whichever your flavor, a cruise is a holiday in itself with the reward of France at the end. However if you are already in Europe or choose to fly to some other part of Europe before entering France, then by all means take a slower journey to France by rail.

Yes it will take longer and add days to your holiday but there is nothing more rewarding than the countryside by rail.
