We are delighted to welcome you to our 2026 Rail Holidays of the World brochure, your passport to a year of unforgettable journeys by train.
Whether you are a long-standing Ffestiniog Travel customer or joining us for the first time, we invite you to see where the train can take you in 2026.
This year’s collection is our most exciting yet, with new rail adventures to captivating destinations. Discover the rich cultures of Thailand and
Mexico on long-haul journeys that blend comfort, scenery, and authentic experience. Explore Europe’s scenic landscapes from festive markets
in Norway to new tours through Scandinavia, Italy, Germany, Austria and Czechia. Our Small & Traditional programme expands with an
immersive new tour to Turkey, offering a deeper cultural connection beyond the usual routes.
We understand that many of our mature travellers are embracing the concept of slow travel – focusing on quality over quantity
and depth of experience rather than rushing between landmarks. Travelling by train offers:
• A comfortable, unhurried way to see a country
• The ability to experience local life, landscapes, and culture at ground level
• A more immersive and environmentally conscious alternative to other forms of transport
• An opportunity to share the journey with like-minded travellers or locals and enjoy on-board camaraderie and conversation

Ffestiniog Travel continues to champion the world’s remarkable heritage, steam, and narrow-gauge railways by weaving them into the heart
of our touring holidays. These journeys are thoughtfully crafted to appeal to both dedicated rail enthusiasts and those seeking a unique and
enriching travel experience. From private charters and behind-the-scenes access to iconic steam lines, to journeys on remote and historic
narrow-gauge tracks, each tour celebrates railway heritage while offering cultural discovery and scenic variety. This blend of passion and
purposeful travel ensures every itinerary delivers both nostalgic charm and rewarding exploration.
With over 50 years of rail travel expertise, we ensure every tour offers thoughtful pacing, excellent value, and in-depth knowledge.
Let the journey begin!
Yours sincerely
Maria Cook (General Manager)
