cheap fares for 1 day trip from London to Paris
 
Anyone know where I can get a discount eurorail pass from London to Paris? I've looked on the Eurostar website but prices are rather high - anyone have any special sites I might find them for cheaper? I'm only going to Paris for the day so want to budget as much as I can. <BR> <BR>thanks :)

http://www.eurostar.co.uk/ <BR>has a Weekend Day Return for GBP70. Bookable only in UK. This is just about the cheapest there is. <BR>If you are going on a weekday you'll pay a lot more, because such a trip caters mainly for business travellers on expense account. <BR>Buzz http://www.buzzaway.com flies from Stansted to CDG three times a day and has weekday day return available from GBP60, plus transfers.

Thanks for the info Alec, Unfortunately for me I would have to do it on a Tuesday as my travel dates are from Sunday to Thursday. Guess I will end up having to pay a higher fare. <BR> <BR>One quick question - where is Stansted?

London Stansted Airport is in Essex around 30 miles north-east of London. There's Stansted Express train from Liverpool St station and takes around 45 min.

Thanks for the help Alec, unfortunately my friend going with me doesn't want to do the day trip so all that investigating was for nothing :( i appreciate the feedback though. <BR> <BR>Any tips on cool clubs/bars to see in London?
