How Easy is it to Travel to the French Alps by Eurotunnel? | Erna Low Ski Holidays
In our video guide to travelling to the Alps by Eurotunnel we document the journey from home to slopes!
At Erna Low, our team members are all ski and snowboard enthusiasts and have travelled all over the world to experience the best ski and snow resorts. This means that we all know what it’s like to use the Eurotunnel and can give you a good idea of what to take for the journey, as well as make you aware of the benefits of self-drive in comparison to flying.
Starting off the guide to driving to the Alps for your ski holiday, we cover driving necessities such as snow socks, a first aid kit and spare light bulbs. Benefits of using your own car means that you can plan what you’re taking with you on your ski holiday and fit lots more in than you would be able to take if you were flying. By using the Eurotunnel you don’t miss out on duty free and may even get chance to indulge in free tea, coffee and pastries!
On arrival in France, we show you what it’s like driving to your ski resort, including covering the process of paying a French road toll, driving through the mountains and whether you will need snow socks or snow chains for your road-trip (we even show you how to put them on!).
An Erna Low customer gives her view on why she prefers driving herself on her ski holidays. She explains that self-drive is a lot easier; there’s no checking in or transfers – as soon as you’re in France you’re off on the way straight to your resort and then in her case, straight to the slopes.
