London to Paris on board Eurostar part 1 

Thanks! I was just browsing around and wondered what it would be like to ride this train - so I searched and your video popped up!

I just came back from my Eurostar trip back to Brussels. Not many things have changed ever since you took that video. I like how you caught all the details on camera.

So glad to see the Medway Viaduct on there... I used to live a 5 min drive from there, and would sometimes walk to school across it; but I live in Canada now having moved 5 years ago. Aproximately 15 seconds to cross it, that's fast - takes about 15 MINUTES to walk it! I think I'm getting homesick.

Im going on the Channel Tunnel tomorrow for the first time and can't wait, thanks for the vid !!!

Way Cool! Thanks for this. And yes, I did smile at the toilet flush:)

Very interesting - thank you for filming this

This is really cool, very interesting. Thanks so much for uploading!

Awesome video from this American...felt like I was along for the ride!

Cool vid, i've only travelled through the tunnel on the vehicle shuttle, so it's interesting to see what Eurostar is like.

Very good .Thanks.

Agreed. So true

I plan to take the same route over the summer very soon.

1:30 LOVE that zebra print

what a journey it must be on this train

My Aunt, Mom and I are planning a trip to France in the future. Just getting the info now and showing her the videos.

I am Swedish But appologies if I were less than Pleasant, Its a beautiful video

It used to be slightly more than 2 and a half hours. Since opening St. Pancras International one can get to Paris in 2 hours 15 minutes

Nice vid! Last year I was on an interrail tour with my friends. We went to Paris and wanted to take the route to London, but we had to pay 70 Euros extra for the Eurostar, so we didn't! :-(

Wow the announcement sounds like one from VIA Rail Canada. It's done in English, then in French, and they mention things like "other passengers will be boarding so please occupy the seat on your ticket".

yeh i like it well filmed

Great job, Sherlock!

wow it would be weird going on a train and then go across the sea to a different country

cant wait until the German ICE train is gonna run through that tunnel

Paris and London are the capitals of tourism for foreigns, nobody goes to Washington DC looking for sightseeing or entertainment, only politics related business, while in the UK and France businesses related to tourism are centered around those capitals, you cant call someone ignorant for wanting to go to London and Paris and not wanting to visit the rest of the country as most of these people are probably traveling through agencies and on a budget. I'm Canadian BTW.

i might be going form London to Calais In October

Nice video, can you tall me, what is the cost to travel by Eurostar from London to Paris?

Yes it is

@harrychown1989 Yes but London and Paris are big cities more than they are capitals. We have plenty of beaches and swamps and mountains and alps and whatever in the US. People go to Paris and London for the culture just like people go to NYC or San Francisco.

Of course. But this was filmed in March '07.

@Nativeskygirl I cringed as well, but perhaps we heard the question out of context? Maybe they were discussing the relative ease of the boarding process? I hope so.

London and Paris are as different as chalk and cheese. But both are great Cities, far greater than anything found in the United States. Furthermore, Europe has far more greater cities than the US could ever dream about. Even Oxford and Cammbridge, both small cities in England, are way beyond the comprehension of the average America. Americans live in their own back yard, and take it with them on 'vacation'. Fortunately, when they've stuffed themselves with hamburgers, they go home again.

by the way the line speed is 300kmph (186mph) not 250

OK I will not next time but it's still part of a train, isn't it?

Just after you gone pass the Eurotunnel Train Terminal

No way!! Where?? ;)

which class was that?

Thumbs up if you smiled at the toilet flush.

@nativeskygirl Never mind--I watched it again. You're right. :-/

@harrychown1989 That's not necessarily true. Usually the capital cities are included but many Americans go to Venice instead of Rome, or Krakow instead or Warsaw. Same with Ireland. Many visit Dublin but more might go to Galway or Clifden or Killarney. I agree with you that Paris is overrated but It just so happens that nothing really attracts anyone to France except Paris. I personally have no interest in ever seeing anything else in France no matter how much better it can be.

@harrychown1989 That's maybe because Washington D.C. has nothing to do. I bet you've been to New York City many times, which is the equivalent to London and Paris.

u can get a return ticket if you book it arround 1 month in advance £60 pounds

america!!!!

That's a Vauxhall station

i like eurostars

Which American?

Not as good as Shinkansen Bullet but not bad. I guess they onli hire from France. lol

8:16 Channel Tunnel

sadly, it is not a cheap ticket. but as lond as suckers are willing to pay it, they are willing to charge it

I went from London St. Pancreas to Paris Nord station. Paris Nord station looks horrible. They need to improve infrastucture over there. London St. pancreas is new and looks a clean and healthy environment.

you showed a tiolet LOL

SHHHHH, I can't hear the conductor

yah well i am an American too..so whats your point matie.....

lol 1 pound equal to 1 and hald dollar lol

woman asks man with OBVIOUS french accent 1) "have you been to paris before?" 2) "is it better than here (london)?" aughhhhhhhh!!! & she's obviously American. what an embarrassment!

What the hell would you expect of most international travelers??? Everyone the world over visits the major places of popularity first quite naturally! And you're wrong, most European deliberately visit New York City, Florida, L.A. and Washington D.C. FIRST! Get your facts straight!

annoying ... does this represent the modern society ?
