How long is Eurotunnel to Disneyland Paris?

The crossing from Folkestone to Calais takes just 35 minutes. From there, the drive to Disneyland® Paris is around 3 hours and 15 minutes via the A26 and A1 (with tolls). You will have the freedom of being able to travel at your own pace, and stop off wherever you like.



The journey from the UK to Disneyland Paris via the Eurotunnel (LeShuttle) involves two distinct stages. First, the actual crossing from Folkestone to Calais takes exactly 35 minutes. Once you drive off the shuttle in France, the drive to the Disneyland Paris resort (located in Marne-la-Vallée) typically takes 3 hours and 15 minutes to 3.5 hours, depending on traffic and which route you take. The most direct route is via the A16 and A1 motorways, though this involves tolls (péages). If you factor in the 30-to-45-minute check-in time required at the Folkestone terminal, the total "door-to-castle" travel time from the South of England is approximately 4.5 to 5 hours. This makes the Eurotunnel a popular choice for families, as it allows you to pack your car with as much luggage and "Disney gear" as you want without the weight restrictions or security hassles associated with air travel or the Eurostar train.
