The best Eurostar breaks - to France by Eurostar or to Brussels by Eurostar and TGV? I often go to France, since I like the atmosphere of the cities there and it's suitable for a short break since it is so accessible. Over the years I have spent several short breaks as well as longer trips in Paris and other french cities such as Lille, Dijon, Marseille and Rheims. But you know, France can be very similar all over due to the centralised state and homogenous culture. It's lovely, but it's always French. So how about eurostar breaks to Brusses or Bruges or even Amsterdam for a change? Have your weekend break in Bruges. I was wondering how to spend a weekend and came across this option: Take the Eurostar and have a break in Bruges with all those fantastic waterside vistas and ancient buildings. I aquired a tatse for flemish food when I was in Lille, so this seemed to be the next logical step for us. And there are many other interesting destinations in France and the Benelux.

Eurostar breaks passenger milestone
Eurostar breaks close to passenger milestone
It has been revealed that we are now very close to a major passengermilestone, with the 100 millionth customer due to check in to travel
just like all the others on Eurostar breaks on the morning of Friday
28th August 2009. The lucky 100 millionth nominal traveller should look forward to VIP
treatment from the English and French crew. Eurostar, the high-speed train operator launched services on 14
November 1994 and now offers direct links to Calais, Lille, Paris and
Brussels, as well as connections within France, Holland, Belgium and
Germany. On the travel routes to Paris and Brussels from London, Eurostar now
claims a market share of 75% despite competition from airlines. Richard Brown, chief executive of Eurostar, said: 'We are proud and
delighted to be ready to carry our 100 millionth traveller next
Friday. We are preparing ourselves for our 15th anniversary on 14
November and look forward to welcoming the challenges with on-rail
competition from next year. However, we are confident that our
knowledge of operating across three countries and through the Channel
Tunnel sets us in good stead for our next 100m Eurostar travellers.' Eurostar's high-speed rail network now connects more than 200 British
towns and cities to the continent, making Eurostar breaks one of the
easiest ways to get away abroad no matter where in the UK you start
out from.

eurostar breaks Valentine's Weekend Break Ideas
Valentine's Weekend Break Ideas. Back. 01 January 2010. Valentine's
day falls on a Sunday this year, therefore a great opportunity to take
off to some romantic place on the Eurostar. The obvious choice is
Paris, the lovers' capital but as an alternative you might also
consider Bruges ( via Brussels) Short Breaks - Two Night Paris Break For Two - £652.00
£652.00 This fantastic short break includes Eurostar travel to and
from Paris as well as two nights accommodation in a three star hotel
plus continental breakfast. So the only thing you will need to worry
about is which of the fantastic parisian restaurants you want to
choose for that special dinner. Paris Breaks 2010
Paris Breaks for 2010 For Paris breaks, 2010 starts with the aftermath
of the unfortunate Eurostar breakdowns with the bad weather last month
in the North of France. http://ukparisbreaks.co.uk/ The locals have been setting fire to house-sized effigies (or fallas)
for the past 200 years, and on the final night all hell breaks loose
with the aptly named Gran Crema, or Big Burn, where the effigies are
stuffed with fireworks and blown up .... Naturally, I'll be taking the
train: Eurostar from London to Paris, a snug sleeper on the excellent
City Night Line overnight to Munich, then a slow and scenic daytime
run through the mountains of Austria into Slovenia and Croatia. Save £3 on all Eurostar Deals | Eurostar Deals
