    We took the boat to Dover via P&O Ferries, and from here to our accommodation in Robertsbridge. P&O Ferries is very good and we also had some delicious fish and chips here. I would recommend it to everyone. On board there are several things to do, like a play area for kids, a supermarket and even a casino. There's also plenty of dining options and the food is of a high quality. Changing money is quick and easy on board. We had a nice view over the sea and our car was safely parked downstairs. We didn't worry about anything, and we certainly didn't need to. It felt very safe on board!

    The staff at the ferry crossings at both Calais and Dover speak French and English, and they make the entire process very easy. I selected the premium lounge option as well as priority parking, and I was not disappointed in the experience at all whatsoever.

    Always fast and efficient. Nicer experience than the other ferry companies that cross the Channel. Staff very polite and welcoming when onboard.

    I highly recommend P&O Ferries than DFDS. I recently took a ferry from Dover to Calais and was impressed with the service and amenities. There are always long queues for security check and immigration checkpoints so I recommend you to get there earlier. Once on board, I was pleasantly surprised by the spacious seating areas and the variety of dining options available. The food was tasty and reasonably priced, and there were plenty of options for all dietary preferences. The ferry itself was clean and well-maintained, and there were plenty of restrooms available. The crossing was smooth and comfortable, and I arrived in Calais feeling relaxed and refreshed. Overall, I highly recommend P&O Ferries for anyone looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable way to cross the English Channel.

    The staff were lovely, not a lot of seating available for waiting, coach was good, the actual ferry was not as comfortable as the one I arrived on but very clean, well organised. Good boarding and disembarking.

    Used for a day trip to France, almost missed outbound due to taking almost 1.5 hours through French Dover border control. That was at 7am. Ferry was late arriving and took almost 45 minutes to unload us. Also 15 minutes queue to buy a coffee. Duty free was good thoogh and saw a pod of whales from the boat. On the way back, border control was smooth, duty free a disaster, 30 minutes queue to pay. Ferry was late again and took 40 minutes to unload. Ok it was cheap, but for £30 extra we could have taken tunnel which would be overall around 2 hours faster in EACH direction. Will not be using again.

    Very efficient and fast moving terminal. Prices are the best around, we checked!

    The bottom of the shipping companies who employ such inferior-knowledge people as these Delhi Gypsies!! What used to be an excellent shipping company is now being ruined by these people, which is already floundering in sustainability. These should be used as maximum capital weight!!

    We travelled on the P&O Pioneer ferry, which is one of the new ferries with beautiful interior. The pet lounge on the Pioneer is really big with lots of seating and a very nice outside area with seating, too. There was free tea, coffee, water and coke in the Pet Lounge and of course lots of bowls for water and food for dogs. Most seats also have a plug and charging point for mobiles and a hook under the table for dog leads. Our dog definitely seemed to enjoy the crossing and far better than having to leave your dog in the car for the whole journey. You do have to book the pet lounge in advance for an extra cost, which I think is around £12, but considering the offer of free drinks it is very good value for money.

    Over the new cross channel ferries. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The prices were very reasonable and for Club Class, I went in Club class and you can have unlimited things to eat and drink, including wine and champagne and tea and coffee. For breakfast you can have cooked breakfast and crossiants or cereal and tea and coffee. For dinner you can have a cooked dinner like beef casserole and roasted vegetables and potatoes, and also quiche and salad. The lounge is lovely with comfy chairs and tables and also an outside deck with sun loungers. The crossing didn't take long, about an hour and a half and you have to get there an hour and half before you sail, to get through customs.

    We cross to Calais by foot and overall the experience was simple and enjoyable. You need to consider the check in, as it needs to be completed 90 min before the departure time. Once in Calais it was Sunday and there's no taxis/buses and you will have to walk

    They need more ferry's with foot Passioners as only 4 time slots and last one is 6.50 in calais to come back to the uk and first one is 9.55 in the morning we need more time if you are just having a day out

    Information online about foot passengers is vague, Check in at the terminal for the bus to get on starts about two hours prior to ferry departure, leaving the terminal 1.5 hours before sailing time. Clearing security and customs requires a few one-off stops along the way and takes up much of that 1.5 hours. The boat is clean and comfortable with lots of seating including some couches. Magic show on board to entertain the kids was fun

    How the mighty have fallen. I looked forward to a nice cooked breakfast in the restaurant only to be direction to the 'Grab and Go' and a cardboard box with a microwave excuse for food. Obviously my expectations were wrong. Never again.

    I have never ridden on a ferry before so I am giving it 5 stars because we didn't sink. but I can also say it seemed convenient and the staff were nice. Very clean throughout. Still super jazzed we didn't sink. Never been on a boat in open water

    We took the Pride of Kent back and forth from Dover. Both in calais and Dover, there was a bit of a wait at the border (40min wait). Boarding was nice and easy. The ferry on itself is a bit old and was not exactly clean. The club lounge does offer a bit of quietness but toilets were really dirty (overall I would take that upgrade again).
