Crossing the channel
 
Need to cross the English channel from England to preferably Belgium at the end of April, was just wondering if anyone can tell me the easiest and most cost effective way? (I won't have a car)
Cheers!

From where to where, London or Dover, and where in Belgium?

If you mean London to Brussels, the take the Eurostar train that goes through the Channel Tunnel from St Pancras station. The earlier you book, the cheaper the fare.You can also go to Paris using the service.

If you have an aversion to tunnels, then you can fly or ferry. But from where to where?

Either London or Dover is fine i'm not really restricted by dates at this point I just need to end up in Bruges eventually.

Take the Eurostar as mentioned to Brussels and then change for a train to Bruges.
