Fantastic “Happy Mondays” breaks still available with Eurostar
--Many low-cost city breaks on offer online at www.eurostar.com

Eurostar, the high-speed train operator linking the UK with France and Belgium continues to make Mondays happier throughout August. A selection of exciting low-price short break packages are being offered, designed to tempt travellers away from the office and into the sunshine.

The popular “Happy Mondays” packages combine travel and accommodation at prices starting from just £100pp, plus a range of discounted optional extras, such as tourist attractions and entry to museums. It couldn’t be easier to indulge in a break away from the daily grind.
Travellers can build their own, tailored break online at www.eurostar.com by choosing from any available trains, and selecting accommodation from a range of 3, 4 and 5 star hotels.
