London description:
In January, Eurostar’s monopoly on using the channel tunnel was meant to have expired. expired, with the possibility of new Eurostar deals with alternative train operators. With its London to Paris flights suffering, Air France realised “if you can’t beat ‘em join ‘em” and in 2008 announced a competing high-speed rail service between London and Paris to start in late 2010. The economic downturn however, may have put that deal on hold. Air France would use the same tracks, but says its trains could run faster than Eurostar’s, a claim that Eurostar disputed.
Meanwhile in Brussels, The European Commission has ow taken action to break the monopoly on a high-speed rail networks operating between France, Belgium and Britain. They won a pledge from existing market incumbents Eurostar and Thalys etc to drop any existing barriers to outside competitors, leaving the way clear for new Eurostar deals across Europe in the near future.
The European Union’s executive arm had been asked to approve the creation of “New Eurostar” – a joint venture between the French, Belgian and British state railway companies, which also control the Eurostar service between London, Paris and Brussels.
The commission gave the New Eurostar project a green light, but only after the three companies committed themselves to facilitating “the entry of new rail operators on the London-Brussels and London-Paris routes,” a statement said.
Joaquin Almunia EU Competition Commissioner wants more varied Eurostar Deals

Amelia Torres said.
In the future, we expect more diversification of services, more choice for consumers, more innovation and lower prices as a result of greater competition
Eurostar Deals to Frankfurt and Madrid
As an example, she raised the prospect of “passengers being able to travel from Frankfurt to London or from Madrid to London without changing trains.”
The commission specifically insisted that potential newcomers to the Eurostar rail network should be able to use station infrastructure and access passenger information currently in the hands of the “New Eurostar” joint venture.
The incumbent companies also pledged to be ready to make space for rivals in their Eurostar timetables.

Travel by Eurostar from London to Strasbourg from £89 per person
The Alsace region of France is home to some of the oldest markets in Europe. For example, the Christkindelsmärik, in Strasbourg, dates from 1570. After the 25th of November there will be almost 100 authentic Christmas markets across the region to choose from, selling everything from jewellery, glass, decorations and hampers to spicy sausages and hot mulled wine. At Thann in the south and you can taste 999 varieties of bredele, a type of Christmas biscuit. Book Eurostar deals from London to Strasbourg from £89 per person return, with onward connections within Alsace also available.
Do you know of any travel tour agency that can offer sightseeing tours including transportation and hotels when in Paris (example: Anderson Tours)?
It’s about £59 each way for an adult fare. People under 26 and seniors can get a discounted fare. There are also low cost carriers like Easyjet with one way fares around £70. Most of those carriers fly out of secondary airports, though, like from London Luton, so you do have to factor in the extra cost of getting there.
You might want to checkout Rick Steve’s Wall which is just for travel within Europe or TripAdvice for more advice. Both sites are laid out really well & informative.
Happy travels!

Eurostar trains operating from St Pancras will be running at “nearly 100% capacity” by the end of the week, Eurotunnel has confirmed.
