In London, Eurostar trains depart and arrive at St Pancras International station, located just north of the city center. Eurostar was previously based in London Waterloo stations but moved to St Pancras International in 2007. 

Paris Gare du Nord is the terminal in Paris, located in the 10th arrondissement, and just a 20-minute walk from Notre Dame cathedral. If you have booked to go to Marseille, you must transfer to Paris Gare De Lyon, in the south-east of the city. 

Brussels-Midi station is in the heart of Brussels itself, making it easy to navigate your way around the Belgian capital. A large station with 22 platforms. The Eurostar check-in is found near platform 8 and is clearly signposted. 

Disneyland Paris uses the Marne-la-Vallée - Chessy Station, which is located around 2 minutes walk from the Disneyland Resort. You can also leave your baggage at the station and head straight to the park if you have the Disney Express package. 

Amsterdam Centraal is located in the center of the city, just north of the tourist sights of the Binnenstad district. There are baggage drop-offs here if you arrive early and want to explore the city before you can check into your hotel.

If you are traveling from London St Pancras, there are trains to France, Belgium and the Netherlands within easy reach. That's awesome journeys like London to Paris by train, Eurostar to Disneyland Paris, Lille, Brussels and now London to Amsterdam, that are served by this train network.  

You can also make connections to cities such as Bruges, Marseille and Lyon, using other rail services. You can also take the Eurostar from London to Bourg St Maurice in the French Alps during the skiing season. 

Checking in with Eurostar is very simple and normally takes between 20-30 minutes. Make sure you have printed your ticket or have the QR code available on your phone ready to scan at the gate. We recommend you arrive 90 minutes before your train leaves to give you sufficient time to go through check-in. For more information visit our Eurostar check-in page.

Along with your ticket for travel, you should bring:

• a valid passport
• proof of travel insurance for any countries you’re visiting

The two are one and the same! ‘Eurotunnel’ is sometimes used to refer to the Channel Tunnel, the 50-km underground rail tunnel between Folkstone and Calais. The shuttle service for cars crossing from the UK to France and vice versa is also called ‘Le Shuttle’.
