Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to book on the day?

Yes we can, apart from Sundays, but we do prefer as much notice as possible. We cannot travel within 2 hours of booking which may mean you waiting much longer than you would like to.

What cars do you have?

We have approximately 20 cars ranging from standard saloon cars to 8 seater minibuses.

How do we pay?

Payment can be made via a link to our secure payment website via credit/debit card or by bank transfer. There is a £1 admin fee for UK cards or 3% for all cards from outside the UK. With bank transfers there is no charge for a transfer from a UK account but non-UK have a £7 fee, and whatever fees your own bank charge.

There is no VAT charged on our bookings, they are taken on behalf of our drivers who are not individually VAT registered.

♦ If you have a crate for your dog, the approximate measurements and if it comes apart for travel. Your dog does not have to travel in a crate, we just need to know if we need to allow space in the car for it.

♦ When we have all of this information we can confirm the price and arrange the payment with you. When we have received the payment we will book the tickets and send your booking confirmation, this will include a copy of the Eurotunnel ticket and the contact details for your driver.

How much notice do we need?

We would always recommend booking as soon as you know your plans, this gives you the best availability of our service.

How much luggage can you bring?

The large estate cars are our most common cars and these cars can take approximately 5 large cases and hand luggage. We need to know how much luggage you will have at the time of booking so we can allocate an appropriate sized car, there may not be availability if you let us know you have extra luggage the day before your booking.

Do we check your pet’s paperwork?

We provide you with the links to let you know what your pet needs to travel. https://www.eurotunnel.com/uk/travelling-with-us/travelling-with-your-pet/we are not able to check your paperwork, this is your responsibility.
