Hotel very good. Overall experience disappointing because of poor communication of excursion cancellation and lack of free time to explore Norwich when venues open. The manager and guide at Fairhsven garden was so enthusiastic and knowledgable

Norwich is a lovely City to spend Christmas,hotel was pleasant although not in the most salubrious area unless your a football fan.All the staff were very helpful and friendly, food was very good with plenty of choice,even for a vegetarian !! Ken our holiday guide was excellent doing his best to please quite a large party. I wouldn't consider another rail discoveries holiday at that time of year due to the over crowding ( not your fault) of the trains. Mary Baynes

Excellent holiday, although weather was wet all the time, the hotel (Holiday Inn Carrow Road), staff and tour guide were brilliant, could not do enough for you.

The usual great service from Rail Discoveries. Ken was an excellent tour manager who was very good at finding alternatives when the schedule had to be altered. The Holiday Inn did a great job, especially Christmas Day lunch, but I was disappointed that the final two dinners did not match up to the standard of the first three, presumably because of a change of chef. Staff very efficient and welcoming. So good to be holidaying with you again RD. I thoroughly enjoyed my excellent Christmas holiday.
