Spontaneous travel starts here

Get ready to embrace that "pack your bags, we’re off" feeling. With Snap, you can book a spur-of-the-moment trip to one of Europe’s most exciting cities and still enjoy the same great experience on board.​

You pick your travel dates and time slot*, we pick your train times, and you get up to 50% off the price of your tickets**. Sometimes it pays to be spontaneous.​

If you can be flexible with your travel times, this is the deal for you. Invite up to three friends or travel buddies and enjoy the same comfort and style you’ve come to expect from a Eurostar trip with the added bonus of a lower fare. Just so you know, we can’t guarantee that you’ll all be seated together.
