As a Korean, I really envy Europeans because they can go anywhere by train or land.
Thanks for sharing your video.

Eurostar offers 3 classes of services: Standard, Standard Premier and Business Premier. All comfortable but different conditions, and prices for each of them.
Is best to get to the check-in area at least 1 hour prior departure time.
I love Eurostar.

I was on 7:01 train on the 10th March, I totally agree train to Paris is so much easier and convenient than plane. Scan the ticket, security check, passport control and to the train only took me 25 mins.
Start my journey from Leicester 4:39 EMT to St Pancras arrived 6:20 and just so convenient. Staff was very helpful and train was clean, great experience overall. Same day back picking up my motorcycle near Paris via Euro tunnel Le Shuttle from Calais and 35 mins later back to England.
I totally agree what you said in your Vlog

Just took the 10:22 this past Sunday for the first time. I arrived at St. Pancras far too early. Good to note there is a small sign that informs you when to queue. They wont let you line up early to get through the passport checkpoint (I tried and failed). Watching for the sign with your departure time on it is key. They will not depart until everyone is on the train, so no need to sweat security. They will expedite your passage through security if you are running late. I watched as they aided a few people who were scheduled to depart on the train before mine. (Thanks for the vids. They were quite useful during my stay in London. Heading back there this week. Have to find me a wifey, job, Irish passport or any combination of the three so I can stay. I like me some London. Gotta get out of SCAMerica.)

We’re visiting London and Paris in less than 3 weeks!! Been watching a lot of your vlogs, very informative! Thank you so much 🙏🏾

Couple of add-on suggestions - listen to folks playing the piano in the departure lounge before passport control (or try yourself !). If St Pancras Renaissance is too expensive, the Premier Inn St Pancras is literally across the road, the air con works (!) and convenient to drop bags if arriving early or leaving late. Also (unlike many other rail fares) return tickets in Eurostar are cheaper than 2 singles.

Heading to Paris & London in about a week. Taking granddaughter as her graduation gift from 8th grade. Taking Eurostar from Paris to London. Looking forward to it. Thanks for the video.

one of my favourite places in London and not just because I usually stay within a 5-10 minute walk from this station - such an easy jumping off point with the library and British museum nearby, but also Camden and its markets, great pubs and restaurants, and easy to get on the tube with.a few lines connecting at Kings Cross. Hoping to get back to London in December after a sojourn across the Pacific to Japan in September - please keep up the great content and inspiring us all to visit the greatest city on the planet

I love how easy it is to visit Paris from London thanks to the Eurostar! Would love to go again this year! 😍

[lilyfajardo]

Thank you. I will be going to London Next year in May and also Paris I was thinking to buy a plane ticket but this train looks so good and fast

On my very first visit to the UK in 2014 whilst in London I decided to pop over to Paris for the day, as I thought I may never have another opportunity to see to Paris. (I have since been a number of times) The Eurostar was super simple - centre of London to centre of Paris. Left St Pancras about 0630 and returned from Gard Du Nord about 2030. A couple of years later I did the same with a day trip to Brussels.
I have since been on the Eurostar a number of times. One tip: pre-purchase your economy ticket online well in advance to get the cheapest price - then on the day of travel ask person in charge on the train about the cost of an upgrade to business. The ticket cost was money spent before your holiday and so the upgrade cost is the only cost on your holiday. I have been lucky with the upgrade cost being not much more than it would cost to buy food on the train.

I love the Eurostar. An Uber takes about 15 minutes from my house to St. Pancras and then 2.5 hours later I'm in the centre of Paris or Brussels.

I'm going end of April and can't wait. This is gonna be fun!

[richardmccarthy]

I also agree beyond passport control is not very exciting; just keep an eye out on any queue. I’ve travelled both Business and Standard. Whilst the meal might be nice not convinced it’s worth the increase. Standard is comparatively comfortable

[evelyngrammar]

Thanks - I just booked Paris to London. Nice to get a "look" at the process.

[royfeely]

I like how you was straight to the point. Didn’t fill the video with irrelevant comment just to puff out the time.

[jasminecook]

Super grateful to have this helpful little video of the step-by-step process of the journey from London to Paris on the euro star. I was really nervous to take this trip since I’m traveling alone and have never taken the euro star before. Thank you so much for taking the time to create this video, I feel a lot more at ease about my trip now.
