Take an amazing journey at nearly 200 miles per hour using Eurostar, the high-speed train service that travels through the English Channel Tunnel--known affectionately as the "Chunnel." Travel from London's Waterloo Station to Paris takes only two and a half hours, compared to the nine or ten hours it would take to use the old train and ferry method. Read on to learn how to book train travel from England to France.
