Trams and Trains of Italy, but beware Naples
Good holiday sadly spoiled by visit to Naples where it was open season on visitors with one wallet theft, one camera theft and two attempted bag snatches all within the immediate area of the Hotel Caracciolo that we were booked into.

Ffestiniog Travel I chose this operator as I assume that is connected with the Welsh Railway of the same name and some of the profits made by the travel company will find their way back to the railway company.
Ffestiniog Travel responded to this review on 09 May 2022:
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback for your recent trip to Italy. We were saddened to hear of the group's experience in Naples. Whilst in no way wishing to minimise the distress which is caused by instances of pick pocketing and so on, it is a known hazard in most cities of the world and all we can realistically do is be on our guard against it.
I am pleased to confirm that we are the sister company of the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways and our profits go towards the continued preservation of both railways.

a truly wonderful holiday from the boat trip to see the windmills at Rotterdam to the views of the North Face of the Eiger at Murren to the journeys on the Glacier express and the Bernina Express

Winter Wonderland
We love switzerland and travel there regularly but this holiday introduced us to places that we had not previously visited. Also we normally visit in the summer, this was our first winter visit.

Very impressed with the admin. Minimal deposit and they refused to take the balance until confirmation that the tour was definitely going ahead. Lots of useful info provided pre departure, particularly with ref to Covid restrictions and requirements.

Fascinating and informative holiday
The trip was to Vietnam & Cambodia. Two countries which I thought I knew something about but I now know how little in fact I did know about them. I discovered so much on this trip about the people and their histories. Time to read up some more about them.

Ffestiniog Travel are a very well organised company with excellent and friendly staff. They managed without (it seemed to us stuck in an airport due to Conv19) to much fuss and with very good information during this time to find alternative flights back to the UK.
