Do we just have to pay a single fee to use the dartford Tunnel to Southend, or do we pay a return, and do we come back to London through the tunnel or over the Queen Elizabeth bridge?

It's bridge going south, tunnel going north.

So the bridge coming back is free?
No it's 2.50 each way
The Dartford crossing is made up of 2 tunnels and a bridge. The bridge runs clockwise on the M25 and the tunnels anticlockwise (though in high winds the bridge is closed and 1 of the tunnels will go clockwise. You have to pay for both ways.

There is a 'phone number in that ^^^^ Link which you can use to pay the toll
I usually pay mine online but I believe there are some shops you can pay in also
I paid the Dart Charge at my nearest Payzone outlet yesterday. You pay for a number of crossings so return would be 2 crossings. They are valid for a year.

thanks all ... booked now online.
I meant you have to pay for two single crossings rather than a return.
"The bridge runs clockwise on the M25 and the tunnels anticlockwise..."

Just a point of pedrantry. The Datrford Crossing does not form part of the M25. The M25 is not a complete orbital route. It finishes just north and just south of the crossing. Roads that form the crossing are actually the A282.

Regular users may care to open a "Dart Charge" account. Crossings for those with an account attract one third discount (making it £1.67 for a car):
