Great Rail Journeys - UK Omdömen 

The agent was knowledgeable, polite and able to answer our queries. He really put us at ease throughout the entire booking process, thank you.

Very straight forward

Everything included, travel, hotels etc, didn’t need to work anything out ourselves!

This reviews the booking process, not the holiday.
The system for selecting upgrades was unusual and not easy to understand. I found you chose either first class rail or second class before you started, then selected your cabin afterwards. It would be easier to select each in turn after choosing your dates.
It would also be better when downloading the brochure for it to be a pdf, like it wrongly stated, rather than part of a web page. It would make it easier to print out at a reasonable resolution.
Otherwise the web site was easy to navigate and I managed successfully to choose the holiday we wanted.
I suspect that the large number of cabins on the boat that were free reflects the relative difficulty of using this site compared to other sites offering the same or similar cruise, which were more booked up.

Excellent service, the phone was answered very quickly and the person I spoke to was polite, friendly and helpful. Everything was sorted out without an online form in sight! Thank you

Extremely happy with the excellent friendly service.

Helpful chap on the phone line, who answered all my questions honestly and in a friendly way

I spoke to a person who knew her stuff. So much better than filling in a form online.

Booking is easy as you can view the various tours and hotels and the availability of dates.
The booking team responded quickly and also gave information about parking and train costs to the destination. If I choose rail they will book the tickets. They also got in touch to discuss mobility issues which were resolved

Knew I wanted to book a Rail and Smaller Boat adventure in Norway to see the Northern Lights. Had subscribed to Great Rail Journeys through an article in The Times. So was keen to do a half rail and half boat trip and found the trip we wanted.
The flights were to Oslo and train up to Bergen.
The booking experience was easy and choice of cabins was just what we were looking for. The day trips are bookable on the boat and a dog sled experience was included. The discount helped too!

Been on two holidays with this company, Wales and just recently the Scilly Isles. Cannot say enough good things! Great hotels, great excursions and great tour guides! With them again next year to Italy and a Med cruise!

I had to phone, not for the first time to correct my name as it differed from that on my passport. I got a recorded message saying that the office was closed. It the went on to specify the opening hours and that suggested it was open at the time!

Fabulous holiday. Very well organised and well paced. Our tour guide Lena was amazing, she was kind, caring and extremely helpful, she never seemed to take any time away from her role as leader.

Your member of staff, Andy was very helpful and I was very pleased with the booking process. I’m looking forward to my holiday next June with my brother to the Isle of Man thank you.
