A truly scenic rail holiday to an unspoilt yet accessible part of Europe.
Lake Bodensee was a lovely surprise. The lake is vast and offers a range of different resorts around its shores. The cycling routes look particularly appealing around the lakeshore as does the very clean water for bathing, sailing & other water sports. The ferry boats and railway systems of Germany, Switzerland & Austria offer a wonderful mode of relaxing transport. The ferries run to tight schedules & provide access to all corners of the lake...

We experiences lovely September weather without huge crowds.
Rating for tour operator:
Ffestiniog travel specialises in rail only holidays worldwide bothers orted & unescorted. They also offer more unusual destinations & some holidays with a rail enthusiast in mind.
The Tour Manages as excellent & very experienced having to deal with numerous delays and missed connections.
Train travel in Europe is also marred byethy train delays bus replacement services & crowded trains but stilmaesfir a enjoyable slower pace to see the countryside.
