Too many changes of train whilst carrying our luggage on the journeys to and from our destination hotel (4 trains). Too little time to get between Paris Nord and Paris Est on foot with luggage meaning the whistle had blown before we reached our carriage. Too many unnecessary changes of train on return journey from Tirano (Bernina Express there but 3 trains back). Very basic food in hotel resembling school dinners, with tasteless soups and miniscule portions for desert.

Lucky to have such livly bunch of fellow travellers.
We loved this holiday, the hotels were amazing especially the Albula and Julier hotel where we were based. the tour guide Deborah Moss was so helpful and friendly also very knowledgeable I don’t think it would have been the same without her. I would recommend this holiday.
Scenery was as expected but trains often overcrowded and cramped with insufficient luggage storage space resulting in the need to get heavy cases up onto overhead racks. The main 'hotel' (as picture) is not in our opinion a hotel at all but merely a hostel. Often occupied by at least 3 different groups of travellers all being served the same mediocre unappetising massed produced food. Room (no 1) basically ok but too hot and with no fan. If window opened the noise from the torrents of water flowing outside was intolerable and created conditions similar to what it must be like trying to sleep in a ship's engine room! We were glad to leave!
It was a magical trip.
Very comfortable seats with legroom glorious scenery table service pleasant staff
Amazing trip . Visited some beautiful places and met some wonderful people. The tour Manager was very informative and looked after all the group. Would definitely recommend to friends and family
Great trip, lovely scenery. Downsides were some lengthy travel days and a bit too much hopping on and off trains with a full suitcase. Family run hotel was as expected. Fairly basic, though staff were helpful. Somewhat limited menu options. Hotels in France were of a better standard.
The weather and consequently the scenery were amazing. The organisation was to its usual high standard, but at 39, it was a large group.
Great holiday with lots to see and do. Tour guide made everything run smoothly. Hotel was good although it was at the bottom of a steep hill if you had mobility problems. Food good plus plenty in pack lunch no need to spend much because of all inclusive. Would definitely recommend especially if it's your first time in switzerland.
An unbelievable experience that I will never forget. Five stars all round!
This was a wonderful tour for me, amazing alpine scenery and lots of trains. Hotel accomodation and catering was good in Tiefencastel All held together by excellent tour manager Hassan. A nice bunch of fellow travellers too.
The trip was well planned and well led by our tour guide. When decisions had to be made they were pragmatic and sensible and very well communicated. All train journeys, hotels and rail excursions were as advertised. Although the weather was very hot and drained our energy it allowed us to view the beautiful scenery at its best.
Our experience of this tour was exceptional and the input from our Tour Manager helped us to enjoy it even more
Excellent from start to finish. One or two small things could be improved. We were very lucky our tour manager , Hassan , was brilliant. Went above and beyond to make sure all had a good time.
Not well organized too much time spent on station platforms spent time going back and forward on same lines too much free time in places with nothing to do poor tour manager
The tour organiser was very good and approachable. All the organised trips were really enjoyable. The scenery was amazing. The company was good. The hotel was in a good position, the food was good but the rooms were very hot even though the weather was cool.
A most enjoyable and rewarding experience, superbly organised by the tour manager, Hassan Ahmed, whose efforts to ensure the smooth running of the trip were outstanding. His use of Whatsapp to communicate information, photos and his own artwork greatly contributed to the enjoyment of the holiday
Excellent Tour Manager! Enjoyable trip from beginning to end (apart from journey Strasbourg to Tiefencastel which involved 5 unsuitable trains - come on GRJ, you can do the trip on 3 trains!). Great fellow passengers and good accommodation - yes, I'd do it again!
First rate. Spot on for almost every aspect. Twenty four trains in eight days !
