Need to reach the UK side of the tunnel with your pet? We drive you from Charles de Gaulle straight through to Folkestone - ideal if family, friends or your own onward plans begin in Kent.
Good to know on this route
This is our shortest airport run: CDG to the Coquelles pet check-in is about 2 h 30 min, then you are through the tunnel and at your Folkestone address within the hour. Ideal if family or a hire car waits on the Kent side - we can also drop you at Folkestone West or Central station.
CDG to Calais-Coquelles is a clean 2 h 30 min motorway run. We build in a comfort stop around the halfway point so your pet can stretch, drink and settle before the crossing.
At the Eurotunnel pet reception, staff scan your pet's microchip and check the Animal Health Certificate or EU passport. We queue with you, handle the paperwork conversation, and make sure nothing is missing before boarding.
Thirty-five minutes later you roll off the shuttle at Folkestone with the M20 beside you - Ashford, Canterbury, Dover and the rest of Kent are all within easy reach, and we can continue to any of them.
Your chauffeur collects you and your pet at your address in Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) at the time that suits you. From there it is a calm, direct drive of around 205 miles - roughly 3 h 30 min door to door - in a private, climate-controlled vehicle. Your dog or cat stays beside you the whole way: no cargo hold, no handovers and no other animals on board, with comfort stops whenever your pet needs one.
At the Eurotunnel terminal we handle the pet check-in together - the microchip scan and document check usually take about 15 minutes - then your pet stays with you in the car for the 35-minute crossing. On the other side we drive straight to your final address in Folkestone Eurotunnel Terminal, whether that is a hotel, a new home or a family doorstep.
The fare for Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) to Folkestone Eurotunnel Terminal is fixed before you book and starts from £565. It covers the vehicle, your dedicated driver, tolls and as many comfort stops as your pet needs. The Eurotunnel ticket is paid separately at the terminal, and we never add weekend or holiday surcharges.
