“It was a very well organized trip. Accommodations were excellent, train rides were spectacular and scenery to die for! I don’t have the words to describe the beauty of all we saw and did. John was very nice and patient. This went beyond my expectations. Wonderful experience! Don’t hesitate to this if in doubt. Worth every penny.

“Vacations By Rail did really well in showing us the many facets the Scottish Highlands have to offer. The tour guide was absolutely fabulous and went out of his way to make sure we all had a great time. Only complaint is I didn't want to leave.

“Joe Royle, Tour Manager did a great job keeping our group on top of things and in the correct place at the right time. His nightly texts of the next day’s key things to remember was very helpful, even though he verbally repeated instructions during the day. He was a wealth of info and had a pleasant, fun personality that did not get perturbed easily. He made the trip very enjoyable.

“This was a wonderful vacation. When I first booked this vacation, I did not know it was "on our own". As three elderly ladies we were more than a little nervous. Gabrielle did a wonderful job of helping me through all of the details as did Bridget. The hotels were nice and clean and well located and the train station was never very far away. The tours provided by the tour were excellent and the timing of the train rides perfect. All of the connections were seamless and the tour guides and drivers were all exceptional. I recommend this company, and this tour if you want to be on your own but have all the details, ie hotels, train tickets, transfers, taken care of.
