Railtrail Annual Brochure 2016

What can you expect from your Railtrail holiday?

A note about Luggage We do include hotel porterage whenever we can, however carrying luggage is the customer’s responsibility, including on to or off a train (unless stated otherwise in the tour itinerary). We would recommend a modest sized suitcase with wheels and a retractable handle and a small piece of hand baggage per person. Our New Concierge Luggage Service Did you know that it is possible to arrange to have your luggage collected in advance from your home and delivered to your UK or European tour hotel, leaving you free to enjoy your holiday by train even more? Using Railtrail’s luggage service allows you to travel light on the first and last days of your holiday. And this special concierge service costs from as little as £85 per case return. Contact us for further details.

Relaxing, nostalgic & environmentally friendly Travelling by plane or car generally means that the first and last days of your holiday involve stress. Not so a rail holiday. Sit back, relax and enjoy the view. Travelling by train is also usually a sociable experience as well as an environmentally friendly one. And don’t forget that the train was the original transporter of holidaymakers in the golden days of yore. Escorted For UK tours our Tour Manager will meet you en route to your destination or at the destination station.
