Last summer M and a friend drove all the way from Prague to UK through France via Eurotunnel to pick up an important equipment. The Eurotunnel is an underground train expressway linking France and UK. The travel took only less than an hour which is ideal for travelers in a hurry like my hubby and his friend. They planned to return home immediately after picking up the package. True enough, they left Friday night and were back in Prague on Sunday.

Their trip went well without any hitches. They didn’t encounter any problems passing through the borders except for the little trouble in Callais during the security check before boarding the train. The French police were suspicious of the short length of their trip so they made a thorough check on their car which quite a bit long. They didn’t find anything of course.

Anyway, since the duo were in a hurry to get back to Prague on Sunday, they didn’t stop by France to see their beautiful cities but they passed by lots of scenic sights along the way nor did they stop for a night in any Paris Hôtels. But if you’re planning to take a road trip around France, there are many hotels in every city where you can stay. Visit these links as they offer cheap rates on accommodations in France:
