Great Rail Journeys were faultless throughout, however, on the journey from Brussels to Austria the German railway system was abysmal. Both legs of the trip (Brussels to Cologne, and then Cologne to Munich ) were plagued with delays and two major engine failure on the locomotive. When we arrived in Austria everything was brilliant, great hotel, excellent food, friendly staff and a well organised and enjoyable itinerary. The GRJ tour manager Steven was amazing,

Return journey to Mayrhofen too long. Saltzburg fell below expectations. Train journey from Brussels to Cologne 2nd class and too long.

We generally enjoyed the holiday but there were too many dull times, we always seemed to be hanging around waiting for trains or going for toilet and coffee breaks. The tour manager was good, the hotel was all you wanted it to be. Beware, although the holiday is inclusive breakfast and lunch are the same repetitive food, though they are very generous with drinks at dinner. The excursions are long and the time spent at the destinations is fairly short in comparison.
