Ffestiniog Travel Traveller Reviews

11 days in Uzbekistan; Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva.. Arrangements worked like clockwork and we were looked after from arrival at Heathrow to leaving it. Almost all meals included, at different restaurants, often with the locals, so a lot of traditional cooking, which was excellent. Uzbekistan guide was exceptional in his knowledge, organisation and friendliness, always responding to our requests. He made the holiday exceptional as well. We saw so many craftspeople at work as well - it was a wonderful experience,

Friendly, well-organised, gave us a lot of prior information and helped with the visa application. Couldn't fault them.

Travelled to Uzbekistan to experience "the Silk Road" and was not disappointed. Outstanding Uzbek guide gave excellent commentary about the history of the country and sites visited. Nothing was too much trouble for him. People were friendly and welcoming. One of the best holidays ever experienced.

Ffestiniog Travel is a small independent operator. They provided excellent and relevant information in advance and answered questions clearly and succinctly. Very good UK Tour Leader accompanied the tour and all arrangements went according to plan.

This was our first trip to Central Asia and the holiday met or exceeded our expectations in every way. The itinerary was great; the hotels were either comfortable or characterful or both; the sightseeing was terrific and the food was really good.

All aspects of the holiday were really excellent. The booking process was personal and straightforward, the pre-trip information provided just the right amount of information, the logistics worked extremely well throughout. In particular, the local guide we had in Uzbekistan was quite exceptional. This is the first time we had travelled with Ffestiniog Travel and we will definitely go with them again.

Brugge is the place to go if you want a compact city centre with everything in easy walking distance. It has canals, churches, art, music and, of course, chocolate.

We have had excellent service from Ffestiniog over the years, with trips to Amsterdam, Florence, Brugge and Switzerland. Always helpful, particularly re-routing us at short notice when there were rail strikes in France.

Rail holiday to Bonn with local trips of interest

Well organised and efficient

Rail trip to Essen, Germany with excursions to surrounding towns/cities using travel pass supplied by the hotel. The trip went exactly as planned.

I have used Ffestiniog Travel for some years now and they have always fulfilled my expectations.

Interesting itinerary covered my interests admirably!

All seemed to go to plan with a couple of minor problems nnothing to do with Ffestiniog.

Ffestiniog trip to Mallorca visiting the railways but also time to enjoy the islands. Practical arrangements organised but then given enough space to do your own thing

Know what they're doing when it comes to rail travel, but small enough to be flexible.

Railway themed holiday based in Palma Mallorca in March 2018. The hotel was centrally based in Palma giving access to the town shops, historic areas and seafront/marina. The holiday was spent traveling on the railway systems of Mallorca including an historic elderly tramway as well as the railway lines to Sa Pablo and Manacor. The tour guide was good in providing information of each days activities and making travel arrangements.

Used Festiniog Travel before on a couple of bespoke trips organised by them and a trip to Switzerland in 2017. Very efficient and helpful travel company.

India met all of our expectations, from travel, hotels (which were exceptional), people we met, tour guides, steam trains, tour manager, and all the sights and smells that India had to offer.

Although we had never used Ffestiniog Travel before, we found them helpful (even before we travelled) and efficient. We will definitely use them again.
