Ffestiniog Travel. Specializes in railway related cultural tours, escorted and independent.





Good trip with well executed planning, booking and execution
I went on a short trip to Ostend and The Hague by train. Although I'd been to Belgium and the Netherlands several times before, I hadn't visited these two places. Ffestiniog Travel made all of the arrangements and everything went as planned.

I've used Ffestiniog Travel quite a few times before and this trip was like all of the previous ones, well planned, easy booking, good advanced information and no palaver.





Well organised and interesting specialised holiday.

A wonderful holiday spoiled somewhat by poor accomodation at one location and a lack of promised activities awhile at that location
For 75% of the holiday we had a wonderful time with many unforgettable experiences. The visit to Shamwari game reserve was outstanding and will live in our memory for a very long time. Unfortunately for 4 nights we were in poor accomodation and at the same time some of the activities offered in the brochure were not available.

We have used Ffestiniog Travel before to book an independent holiday to Switzerland. All the arrangements for this went very well and we were most impressed. The holiday we have just taken to South Africa has been enjoyable and memorable but unfortunately the accommodation on one leg of the tour was poor. The activities on he same leg were also not as expected.





Dresden Steam Festival
Eight day trip including Steam train visit to Moritzburg Castle. German steam railway event River cruise Opportunity to explore Dresden area

Since 1981 I have been on seventeen tours with Festiniog Travel mainly to France, Germany, Belguium and the Netherlands





Very well organised by Ffestiniog Travel
Brunei was very interesting and the monkeys really entertained us. Singapore was great to revisit and see the new places and old friends. New Zealand is our second home and great to get away from the British winter.

Very good and well informed





An excellent tour of India which enabled to experience this interesting and fascinating country within the specific framework of a railway holiday
Ffestiniog Travel's Indian Hill Stations Tour, which combined visits to the 3 famous Hill Railways with a general Tour of Indian tourist spots. The tour had many facets including rides on all 3 railways, train rides on the Indian Rail network and visits to such places as the Taj Mahal and Golden Temple.

Rating for tour operator:




The logistics of this tour must be very difficult to arrange and implement, but everything ran smoothly. The content, whilst based around the 3 Hill railways, was varied and gave a first time visitor a good flavour of India, as well as taking in some famous and historic sites. The experienced was enhanced by travel on the Indian Railway system.
