Hi,
I am booking a trip via Eurostar and the french trains to strasbourg
This requires a change from gare du nord to gare de l'est, most connections on the eurostar site give an hour. Do you think this is enough? Looking on mappy, theres only about 500m between the two, but knowing how things go it will take about 40 minutes to disembark and go through customs, and then there'll be no signs telling me where to go....
If you do miss the connection, will they let you travel on the next one?
The general local consensus is that it's 10 mins on foot .. or you could take a taxi. As far as I am aware, customs clearance is done in the UK before you board, so there should not be a problem in France. As to taking the next train, any seat reservations etc would be invalid but your ticket would be ... you can check this on the ticket itself which gives the validity of the ticket itself.
