Ffestiniog Travel Traveller Reviews

Well organised, brilliantly led, good hotels

Ffestiniog Travel. Efficient.

A wonderful mix of steam railways, historic cities, attractive countryside, and delicious food. As always, travelling with FR Travel provides you with a great tour leader, friendly and varied company, and the opportunity to follow up your own interests. It was so good, I'd love to do it again sometime!

The schedule was perfectly paced for a group like ours, purposeful but never hurried, and the rail travel and hotel arrangements had been made with meticulous care. That doesn't just happen; it reflects the skill and experience of the tour company and the tour leader.

Excellent in every way.

Could not be faulted..

Perfectly organised and everything ran to time. Holiday leader was excellent

Perfect

Tailor made holiday to Switzerland including travel and hotels excluding evening meals

They listened to our requirements and promptly answered any questions we had.

Train and ferries all the way, brilliantly arranged for us by Ffestiniog Travel. The journey was a ‘circular’ from Macclesfield (Cheshire) via London, Brussels, Hamburg, Kiel (ferry), Gothenburg, Oslo, Umeå (ferry), Vaasa, Turku (ferry), Stockholm, Copenhagen, Cologne and back to Macclesfield. ,

Ffestiniog Travel are part of the Ffestiniog Narrow Gauge Railway based in Porthmadog. We had never used them before, but when this trip for a wedding in Finland (having flown there many times) became possible, we contacted Kate Berry to see if it was viable, It was, and once we had established the types of hotels etc, Kate arranged everything. Excellent hotels, perfect connections, reserved seats and cabins and sleeper train (to Umeå). Brilliant trip!

A varied itinerary based in Innsbruck and Vienna, with some good excursions from Innsbruck. The excursions were a good mix of transport interest and general sightseeing. Our activities in Vienna were curtailed due to exceptional rainfall.

I considered that they really went the extra mile when sorting out difficulties with our return journey. A return journey by air was quickly organised when it became clear that the trains would not be running for some days due to serious flooding in Austria

We travelled from Kendal in Cumbria via Eurostar through France to Corsica where we "explored" the island by train before retracing our steps. Along the way we spent enjoyable time in London, Lyon, Marseille , Nice , Bastia , Calvi, Ajaccio ,Toulon and Lille..

Always felt you were in safe hand with people who knew what they were doing..
