Travelling Morocco by train
A variety of hotels in major cities of Morocco with varying standards of facilities and service. Excellent train travel across the country. Particularly enjoyable visit to TGV depot in Tangier, where we were made very welcome. An interesting insight into the country.

Stunning Switzerland by Rail
Ffestiniog Travl organised our honeymoon to Switzerland. It included travelling to different areas of the country including Chur, Luzerne and Meiringen. We were able to specify to have a few days in a few towns so that we could explore by ourselves the local area, as well as undertaking some pre-planned day trips too. All travel was via rail which meant we could enjoy the countryside and scenery. It takes much longer than flying to reach Switzerland ...

All travel was via rail which meant we could enjoy the countryside and scenery. It takes much longer than flying to reach Switzerland from the UK, but well worth it.
Rating for tour operator:Ffestiniog Travel were absolutely first class. They were able to tailor the trip to our needs and preferences, make alterations where needed and were extremely knowledgeable about international travel. The service provided by their team exceed all expectations and we will now consult with them on all future international rail holidays that we decide to take in the future.
Jordan, Steam Petra and the Dead Sea
Tour of the major sites in Jordan, culminating with Petra. Superb.

Rating for tour operator:The information provided prior to the tour was informative and comprehensive, and the tour leader was excellent.
Excellent, well organised and well run tour.
Excellent escorted holiday following the river Rhine from sea to source. Very well organised, but leaving free time to do our own thing, especially in the evenings. Very informative and well thought out itinerary. A very good and varied holiday.

Incredible!
Where do I start? Petra and Wadi Rum were astonishing. I understand fully the remark that Petra requires 2-3 days. But the one day I had was hardly a let-down and oh so fulfilling. The two train rides laid on were an enthusiast's dream. The colours and rock formations of Wadi Rum especially were wonderful! What I saw in 8 days I will cherish forever. Thankfully it is all on camera.

Rating for tour operator:Trouble-free from beginning to end. The planning before and the execution during the trip were first class. And this is largely because of Mike Wells and local guide Omar.
