Anyone got any ideas on how I can do this? I did look at the Eurostar and you can go from London to Brussles, then any train from Brussles onto Bruges without issue and the same from London to Disneyland Paris, but you can't do Disneyland Paris to Brussles.

Ideally, train would be best or if it really isn't that feasible it looks like I might have to take the car.

Take the train for the legs where possible and rent a car for the rest?

ETA: Just take a train (RER) from Disney into Paris, then a TGV to Brussels. If you're cunning and time it right, you can get a taxi from whichever station the train from Disney gets into to the Gare du Nord for the TGV...

Disneyland Paris station is called Marne-la-Vallée Chessy - You may be better off looking for Charles des Gaulles Roissy-en-France (Paris Airport) for connections. Its about 20 miles from EuroDisney and I'm sure theres at least a bus..

Have you tried Google maps for travel reccos? I find it excellent. You might need to break the journey down into stages to get it to give you sensible answers

I've found a couple of sites where I've had to break the journeys down to individual stops etc.. and if I do the Eurostar on a Sunday it's £218 one way for the both of us, whereas if I go on a Thursday it's £115, from DLP to Bruges is £53, then Eurostar back on the Sunday is £125, so a cost of £293 - £396 and that's before the cost of hotels, park entrance, food and drink!

The car is looking far more promising to be honest as if I get the Eurotunnel that's at most £116 both ways then just the petrol on top, plus a found a couple of hotels that will do free parking near DLP and Bruges. It also means were not reliant on public transport smile

EuroStar is not especially cheap it has to be said. We've done EuroDisney a couple of times with the junior Nello's and were there a few months ago. If you are looking at their hotels I'd reccomend the Cheyenne. We paid alot more first time around at the Newport Bay but the Cheyenne is perfectly acceptable/and much cheaper - you'll only be using it to sleep. Its almost as near to walk to the Parks (though theres a regular free shuttle as well) and my lads loved the mock Cowboy filmset the bedrooms are set in. BTW the new Ratatouille ride is brill! laugh

Cheers Nello, no kids are going, just myself and the GF for her 30th. She's been insisting for years for me to take her, but I think I'll save a few ££ and get a hotel slightly away from the park and get the free shuttle bus that they offer, then spend the extra on a nice hotel in Bruges smile Here's hoping it will be quiet at DLP and we can do most of it in a day, as I'm not overly fussed about the studio part of the park

This is where I stayed in Bruges with the missus. She loved it. And I broke a chandelier by accident (the hotel didn't mind)

Oddly enough, that is where I am going to book for our stay. How did you break a chandelier though? hehe

That made me chuckle, funny how I read it exactly as the song.
