Budget Travel - Bus service from London to Paris ?

Can someone provide me with the names/web addresses of bus companies that provide service between London and Paris, other than National Express/Eurolines which I am aware of.

I need to find transport from London to Paris during July/August that leaves after 23:00 .

Thanks in advance.

I really don't think there are any.

I used to use Eurolines quite regularly, bussing between London & Paris in the days before LCCs and the Eurostar - even then there wasn't any competition.

The quickest journey time by bus is around 8 hours. And I'm sure you already know that the last departure is at 22:00 (arriving at 7:00).

Why not get an Easyjet flight leaving at 6am in the morning? You'll arrive at 8am - the same time as an 11pm bus departure would... if there was one.

If it was me, I'd go to the airport the night before, find a bench, have a sleep and check in at dawn. Even this will be a hundred times more comfortable than getting an overnight bus to Paris, trust me on this!

Have you considered train/ferry? If you're not in a hurry and want a relaxing boat trip, travel London-Dover by train - ferry - Calais-Paris by train.

You can find train times on Die Bahn website (http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en?ld=212.63&newrequest=yes&) for all European trains and ferries at A Ferry to (http://www.aferry.to/).

More work - but more fun!

Except the price is hardly 'budget'.

A single from Waterloo to Dover Priory is £22
Then there's the ferry trip which is about £10
And it will be at least another £20 for the jaunt from Calais to Paris.

According to the Ferry website in the link, footpassengers aren't allowed to book any of the overnight ferries :( .

Otherwise, there are trains that leave Waterloo at around 11:00pm and 11:30pm - they arrive in Dover Priory at 1:00am and 1:30am.

Perhaps it is possible to get a ferry ticket on one of the boats that leave after 2am, I don't know.

Eurostar would be the best way to Paris, but I guessed the OP was trying to cut costs. I saw there were flights for just over £25.

If the OP does decide to go by air - be sure to check out www.easybus.com for a cheap travel option to Luton Airport. There are tickets available from £2. Oops! Wrong URL - See next post:

The link shown is to a different website.
The URL should be www.easybus.co.uk .
(BTW. Thanks for posting that - I didn't know about that service.)
