“The tour apart from a problem with a Scotrail train was good despite inclement weather.
Food at BW Crianlarich was excellent as were the staff made us all very welcome I’d give it 5 stars .
Jacobite Train trip excellent despite the Scotch mist , also the Loch Lomond trip, and our coach
Driver Brian was excellent.
Last but not least our tour guide Gareth was excellent throughout the trip.
In short a really good holiday and thanks to all involved in making it so.

“Great holiday made even better by the fantastic weather. The itinerary is just right, packing plenty in with 1 free day to do as you please. Our tour manager Colin was knowledgeable about the area which is an added bonus of course. As regular customers with the company we're very aware that this is not always the case, they are after all tour managers not tour guides.
The 3 star Barnstaple hotel is only let down by it's location, a half hour walk from town with an industrial estate behind it. This made it a bit noisy at times as they worked through the nights. If it wasn't for that I suspect this would be a 4 star hotel as everything else was excellent and the food outstanding, best choice and menu we've ever had on a Rail Discoveries or Great Rail Journeys holiday. I believe that next year they're using a hotel closer to the town centre by the same hotel chain, so hopefully that will help make a great holiday into a perfect holiday.

Glacier Express All Inclusive at Christmas12/Jan

“This would have been 5 stars but for the following.
1.Disappointment being changed from Strasbourg to Mulhouse. Mulhouse was attractive and the hotel very good but the journey was too long,we arrived too late to see anything and had to leave next morning just as the market was opening.
2. The group was 34 in number(much too big),our guide was very good but many struggled to keep up.
3. Tiefencastel, The hotel was clean,very warm and comfortable,but a bit stingy on the bathroom products(one small sachet of body wash each) and packed lunches (considering one day was Christmas Day).And all inclusive is perhaps a description that stretches a point! It”s only at tiefencastel and that is limited to while you are eating.
4. Communication is sometimes muddled by receiving some messages from Great Rail, a sister company
5,We paid for our luggage to be transported to Tiefencastel,but a week before departure were notified that the company (Sherpr) knew nothing about it .RD has reimbursed our money.Luggage on trains can be problematic.
6.Otherwise,brilliant holiday. Christmas day,snow,good company,treasured memories……..

“Well organised holiday with a helpful 'Hostess'. An excellent hotel in Wetheral, and good choice menus, but a lift to the bedrooms would have been much appreciated for those less mobile!
