France to England Ferry Travel: The Perfect Way to Explore

Taking ferry to England can be more of fun rather than waiting for plan at the airport hoping to take off in time!. There are many great places in England that you will enjoy during your trip. I had a unique experience with my family sailing across the English Channel. I took the ferry route from Dunkirk to Dover to which it takes around less than 2 hours. There were large rolling swells, wind-blown spray white off the wave crests, and fountains of spume with each drop of the ferry’s bow. It made me wonder how ancient traveler ever made the crossing in small boats with oarsmen or sails.

Most travelers who use ferries for cross channel crossings take it as part of their holiday break. There are many different ferry operators with several ferry routes in and around France. Ferry booking was quite easy. I had booked ferry tickets well in advance by online. We reached Dunkirk port well in time and had no trouble boarding the ferry, the staff was quite helpful and helped us to unload our luggage and stove it into our cabin.

We found ferry travel quite comfortable and flexible compared to road travel where one can easily get stuck in traffic. If it is by air travel, there will be a lot more hassle getting other flight. But in cross channel, whereas if we are early, at times we can get an earlier ferry crossing. There is no extra charge providing that you are booking in within three hours either way of your designated time you have booked.

Ferry travel is considered to be the best option because it is easy to manage both expense and time. That is why most of the travelers like it because at the same time they can have unlimited fun and entertainment.

There are some companies gaining from their regular operations and long-built relationship with other companies over a period of time. Norfolkline and Kings span group Plc are two such companies, on a mission to achieve common objectives by extending support to each other. Norfolkline deals with logistic service in addition to its regular ferry service running ferries to France and other continents, whereas Kings Span has established itself as a commercial builder in the UK and Scandinavia market.

The packaging is done at Kings Span in a professional manner under the supervision of the Norfolkline experts and then the products are sent to the market from the production unit. Kings Span panels have an edge over other competitors by providing value added solutions to most of its clients through Norfolkline. Similarly, Norfolkline is quoted as the best logistic provider in Europe and Scandinavia.
