How do I travel from the UK to my Eurocamp holiday?

For Eurocamp holidays with flights – Eurocamp offer only a few package holiday deals through Jet2holidays (click to check out) so you’ll most likely need to book the flights yourself if you’d prefer not to drive. When it comes to the budget airlines, I think the best options are Jet2 and EasyJet – and for price comparison the Skyscanner website can be a great place to start. You can sort car hire easily on websites like Expedia, or book your transfers to and from the airport on the Suntransfers website before you go to make your trip stress free.

For ferry and channel crossings to/from Calais – Eurocamp have access to discounted slots which are usually significantly cheaper than booking directly. The prices fluctuate slightly, but a return on the ferry from Dover to Calais is typically £100 – though the drive time to Croatia is around 15-18 hours (depending on where you’re planning to stay) so it’s a very long road trip! I’m not certain how many different ferry routes Eurocamp offer, but if you are looking for affordable options to/from a different location then the Direct Ferries website is the best place to look.
