Is it better to book a taxi or drive to Folkestone?
Booking a taxi with Twells Taxis avoids parking near the Harbour Arm, town centre or Eurotunnel terminal, and takes the stress out of an early Eurotunnel check-in. The fixed £92.75 fare is updated September 2026.
The most direct route from Tunbridge Wells to Folkestone runs east on the A21 before joining the M20 eastbound, following it straight through to Folkestone. Junction 13 serves the town centre and seafront, while Junction 11A serves the Eurotunnel terminal directly.
Folkestone's Harbour Arm, town centre and Eurotunnel check-in all have their own access points and limited parking, so a pre-booked drop-off avoids circling for a space. If you're catching Le Shuttle, tell your driver at booking so they can head straight for the correct check-in lanes rather than the town centre.
