To reach Brittany you have several options.
Book your car, your bikes and yourselves onto a car ferry -
this is by far the easiest option, but not at all 'green', when
we look at the carbon ofset! Depending upon where you live you
have the following routes to choose from:
Plymouth to Roscoff. Poole to Cherbourg. Plymouth to St Malo,
Cherbourg, Caen or Le Havre. Newhaven to Dieppe, Dover to Calais
or Euro tunnel.
Or take one of the ferries above and travel by train to your
destination. Unfortunately not all trains carry bikes. www.sncf-voyages.fr
To reach our guided tours and some of the self guided destinations
we recommend the Portsmouth to St Malo ferry with Brittany
Ferries overnight. The ferry arrives in St Malo at about 8am.
There are train connections from St Malo to Rennes in the
morning, followed by train or bus connections (sometimes both)
to all of our destinations.
Or you can fly: (another not very green option)
Ryanair to Brest from Luton. www.ryanair.com.
Ryanair to Dinard from East Midlands or Stansted. www.ryanair.com
Flybe to Brest from Birmingham, Exeter, Manchester or Southampton
www.flybe.com
Flybe to Rennes from Belfast City, Edinburgh, Exeter, Manchester
or Southampton www.flybe.com
The best thing to do is to contact
us about your requirements and we will advise: the cheapest,
the greenest or the most luxurious!
