What people love about Train & Rail Tours from London
- Da Vinci Way
Thank you interrailingpackages for everything. you went above and beyond to meet all of my requests and also included some day trips. the accommodations were in SUPER areas and so close to the centres. everything was great and i couldnt fault it
- Whole of Europe Group Rail Tour (18-35)
Have recently returned from the Whole of Europe group tour and I can honestly say I can not recommend Euroventure highly enough! For anyone that is nervous about travelling alone or just wants the opportunity to travel with a group of likeminded people this is the perfect opportunity! Also having Euroventure sort out all accommodation and travel took a lot of the stress out of the trip for me! Our tour leader was Tom who was super friendly and always able to help if we had questions or simply recommend fun things to do in each city! Will definitely be looking to book with a Euroventure again!
- Central Europe Group Rail Tour (18-35)
The highlight of our year so far! ? Me and my partner loved the Central Europe Tour ?(2 weeks), we would recommend it to ANYONE! And we would even suggest doing the Whole of Europe tour (4 weeks), as we could have easily carried on travelling with this company and the amazing people we met! ?The whole trip was thoroughly planned and so enjoyable! Such a stress free experience, especially for someone like myself who gets quite anxious when travelling - I would 100% do again!?? I met some incredible individuals, and the group planned activities were just what we needed to establish really strong bonds straight away! We have definitely made some lifelong friends and memories we will forever cherish! ??? The creation of the WhatsApp group chat with all our fellow travellers beforehand was so beneficial!? It broke the ice and put our minds at ease about the uncertainty of the upcoming trip ? And our guide Cristina ? - was brilliant, super friendly, helpful, considerate and extremely knowledgeable - educating us all. She was available 24/7, and we had the pleasure of spending our last day in Venice with her! ??? She deserves a lot of credit for making all our experiences amazing and unforgettable! Thank you Cristina ?? We look forward to our future bookings with Euroventure! ??
