Which is better ferry or Eurotunnel?
Taking the ferry can also be a better option if you're travelling as a larger group since you can all meet up in the ferry's bar or restaurant. However, if your idea of fun is getting to France as quickly as possible, you might favour the Tunnel.
Is there a toilet on the Eurotunnel?
The carriage is lit and there are toilet facilities available. You can get out and walk around, but there is nowhere to go. Toilets are fine. You mustn't smoke or take flash photos because they have smoke and flash detectors that are very sensitive and can stop the train.
