Since July 2015, the Macron law has liberalized the long-distance coach transport market. The direct consequences of this law are the multiplication of national and international lines as well as the appearance of new companies such as Ouibus, Flixbus or Isilines, a subsidiary of Eurolines. With ultra-competitive prices, the bus becomes the cheapest means of transport in France, competing with the train and carpooling.
Here is an overview of the companies OUIBUS, Flixbus et Eurolines which offer many connections between France and London and even from certain Belgian cities! Do not hesitate to compare their services and their prices to choose the company that best meets your expectations.
