You are planning a road trip from the UK to France, but you need a guide to the cheapest ways to cross the English Channel?
No need to feel lost at sea when it comes to prices because the researchers at Which? have worked hard to analyze the cost differences between taking the ferry and using a LeShuttle Channel Tunnel train service.
The information below - which includes the prices for overnight ferry services - will help you determine whether it's worth sacrificing sea views for speed. All costs are average prices for a standard car with two adults, two children, traveling in August.
Which is cheaper - ferry or the Channel Tunnel (LeShuttle)?
"If price is your only concern, the ferry hands down LeShuttle", Which? said.

He notes that on average, LeShuttle (formerly known as Eurotunnel Le Shuttle) costs £60 more per journey for a car with four passengers than the ferry service from Dover to Calais.
