Not too sure. We have 5 in a car which gives £90 each for the ferry return. We have fuel costs to Hull and then from Rotterdam to Poznan. All travel within the country costs the price of the fuel, no need for trains here and there. We can stay outside the towns where the game is on and then drive in near for the match days. Also gives a lot of freedom in movement for spontaneous trips etc. I have heard flights are cheaper than i was expecting so could be worth considering, maybe rent a car out there.

I still would estimate it would work out much more expensive. Petrol, petrol and more petrol.

According to my sister in law who is polish,  she said that petrol has gone up again in Poland, and it is roughly the same price it is here, so for polish people whose average wage is lower than ours, it is very very expensive.

The price is based on vehicle size. doesnt matter how many people are in it !

Obviously if you have 20 people hanging off the roof calcutta style they might raise eyebrows but when you book the price is based on the vehicle not number of passengers !

Had a quick look there now and you can still get if for £86 ( flexi open return ) meaning if you're in bits and don't make your crossing you can hang back and go later Wink

Having a nightmare with this aswell. Gdansk is sorted but there appears to be a lot of dodgy websites for camping etc. Just need somewhere to pull the motorhome in for a few night. Angry

Leaving everything til last minute but really hoping to go, looking into getting ferry from rosslare to cherbourg and driving from there, ferry less than 100 return each and if there was 5 of us petrol would be about 150 each, bring a big tent and make a few stops on route and camp away. 250 each return and accom sorted with the tent and would be road trip of a lifetime!
Here we go again

Myself and my son are travelling by motorbikes - Holyhead-Hull-Rotterdam-Magdeburg-Poznan. It will work out more expensive than a car or probably flying, but part of the holiday is the road trip.

Just got the email yesterday confirming that I have tickets for all 3 games - restricted view for Croatia and Spain, but beggars can't be choosers  Wink

Roll on June 7th !!

Pretty sure Carlsberg still have spots (or they did a couple of weeks ago). Decent enough deal compared to hotel prices.
