Ffestiniog Travel Traveller Reviews

Stays in the major coastal cities using local transport to get around. Plenty of free time to explore personal interests in visiting the tourist sights available.

Efficient administration, good tour leaders and can adapt tours to accomodate individual preferences.

Everything ran like clockwork and we definitely will be returning! Plenty of time allowed between train connections so there was never any concern. And negotiating the RER in Paris was easy (bragging!!) The hotel was excellent, both in position for excursions and in quality.

Booked unescorted tour with Ffestiniog Travel and from the first point of contact everything was easy. Good explanations over a transport question, and full and comprehensive details sent two weeks before the holiday departure, so plenty of time to digest the details.

The tour used local trains to travel the northern coast of Spain. The hotels were excellent and the cities fascinating. The trains were often very infrequent and very slow, but they enabled journeys through impressive mountain and coastal scenery.

Ffestiniog Travel successfully organised a tour that was challenging in terms of frequent onward travel and infrequent trains. Good documentation was provided and an accompanying coach carried luggage and was available as back-up if trains were cancelled.

A rail holiday with a planned itinerary, that became a 'rail replacement bus" holiday that was less organised.

They are polite and responsive. Lack the quality of organisations that charge similar levels for tours.

Covering Banff, the Rocky Mountaineer, Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, Sacramento, and San Francisco; with rail travel throughout

Offer a well-thought standard tour and then willing and knowledgeable to add bespoke parts

6 days in the Isle of Man. Great friendly small hotel, weather really good , calm ferry crossing both ways and we saw and did everything we wanted and more.

We have been several times with Ffestiniog and never been disappointed

Vintage trains, vintage coaches & buses bliss!

Prompt service arranged special request for room

We had an amazing holiday helped in no small part by Tracey at Ffestiniog Travel no question was too small, her itinerary was exemplary and all the arrangements ran seamlessly

Great service provided by all at Ffestiniog Travel. I would definitely recommend this team and can only imagine there escorted tours are exceptional given the overall quality of the unescorted tour they provided for us. All hotels of a high standard arrangements ran seamlessly.

Unescorted, staying in Zurich & Basel after overnighting in Paris. Eight nights/nine days. Four star hotels used on bed & breakfast basis..

Ffestiniog Travel. Prompt in responding, friendly staff and everything went smoothly.

It was very well organised by Festiniog staff. The tour manager was very knowledgeable about the Harz Railway system and helpful in planning individual trips or providing escorted trips. Very friendly and helpful staff at hotel in Wernigerode. A very enjoyable holiday and I have no hesitation in recommending it.

Excellent organisation and advice in preparation for Holiday. Tour manager knowledgeable and helpful.
