Our customers love our Popular Rail Tours tours

Edinburgh, the Highlands & Islands

Mrs C Inboden

“Everybody I dealt with at Great Rails was very knowledgeable and organized. Our experience was exactly as expected.

Glacier Express in Winter

Ms C Hill

“A wonderful full itinerary, well organized and planned. The hotels were a great contrast...one in a town and one in a small village of typically Swiss wooden houses surrounded by mountains, and only accessible by train. The country was expensive, but the provided meals were good and local. Our group was friendly and a good mix of pleasant people, who all got on well. The weather couldn’t have been better....five days of sunshine for all the trips on the glacier and Bernina Express, so amazing views, then snow on the last day for a wonderful woodland walk from the chairlift above our last hotel. One of the best tours we have had with Great Rail.

Western Highlands & Hebrides

Mr P Johnson

“Thoroughly enjoyed the round of experiences in this vacation. A bit spoilt by the weather.

A Castle On The Shores Of Loch Fyne

Anonymous

“Very little free time, both to experience the hotel and surroundings and also the local harbor. It is Scotland, but there was a lot of travel to get anywhere. The trip to the distillery was a long way for an hour’s experience, and not really of much interest to the ladies perhaps.

Grand Imperial Cities

Anonymous

“Excellent tour manager coped the issues thrown her way. Hotel food not so good. would have paid for extra night in Nurnberg and Berlin if that was available. Would have perferred to go direct to Berlin rather than visit Spreewald.

Grand Tour of the UK

Mrs L Janse

“There was just a little too much UK in 14 days. I looked forward to visitng Glasgow, but arriving n the evenimg and departing the next mornng diddn't give much time to do that.
