Welcome to the world of
Railtrail Tours - 2020
40 years on from organising an escorted rail holiday for the first time it gives me great pleasure to bring you
the most comprehensive and exciting of Railtrail tours programmes that we’ve offered to date.
Tours that are unequalled in originality and content, varying from a superb short stay in the Scottish Highlands (my original choice of
destination forty years ago) to an amazing superior quality WOW-factor tour of India including staying at high quality Indian hotels some
of which are former Royal Palaces!
Our full list of classic rail holiday departures up until October 2020 is featured opposite, and as you will see there are again numerous
new tours to go with our perennial favourites.
Our family firm still has this ‘founding father’ at the helm and retains that longevity, knowledge and truly friendly personal service that is
so lacking in today’s call centre world, where corporate profit seems to come before everything else.
Railtrail are the antithesis of a faceless tour operator and If you have not experienced the Railtrail ethos before please see below some
of the reasons why we believe Railtrail should be your first choice for an escorted rail holiday.
Repeat bookings and recommendations make up a very high percentage of our clients and we are immensely proud to report that we
have again been the recipient of a 5 star rating with review company FeeFo.
This makes it five in a row since we first registered with them five years ago and as it’s our tour participants rating their Railtrail
experience with an independent review company – you can’t get better than that.
I believe that is because Railtrail are …
Big on quality, small enough to care!
