Byways pre travel support was…
Byways pre travel support was excellent. They helped me get everything onto an app, which then made the journey very easy, and I'm not great at IT.
The train times all fitted comfortably together, with good pre booked seats.

Hi Jackie,
Thank you for this kind review. It's really lovely to hear that the pre-trip support made such a difference, especially getting everything set up on the app ahead of your journey. We're really pleased it all felt straightforward on the day, with the connections and seat reservations all coming together nicely. Hopefully we can help you plan your next adventure before too long :)

Had a great holiday
Had a great holiday, inter-railing through Switzerland, Italy and France. All very well organised by Byway. They notified us of a train strike in Italy and helpfully detailed an alternative train which would be running, so it all went very smoothly. The hotels are 4*. Only the one in Paris we were less keen on.

Hi there,
Thank you for this lovely review. Inter-railing through Switzerland, Italy and France sounds like a brilliant adventure! It's great to hear that the team were proactive in flagging the Italian train strike and had an alternative ready to go. We're sorry to hear the Paris hotel didn't quite match the others, and we'll definitely have a look into that. Hopefully we can help you plan another trip in the future :)

Double check everything with this rather good company
We had excellent service on a trip to Spain and so booked a more complicated adventure. Arranging the second trip because a bit tortuous because they came up with one suggestion after the other neither of which tied in with the clear dates I had given them at the start. But we got there in the end. But you do need to double check everything. There was a not insignificant error about the boarding terminal for a ferry - possibly one which not too many customers use but it did feel a bit hairy at the time.
It is important to note that they make their money from the hotels and not the rail travel. They were rather firm with me that they were not interested in getting you from A to B even if, in my reading, the Man at Seat61 slightly implies that.
They are wonderfully good at dealing with people who are not always 100% ease with modern technology and this is impressive.
We had a problem with a delayed ferry which meant that we missed our booked train. The service from the emergency WhatsApp was speedy warm and faultless. We could not have asked for more.
Travelling by train feels a real adventure and you get so much more of an idea of travelling and distance than going by air.

Hi Mark,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a detailed review, we really appreciate it. We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed your previous trip and that our emergency support team was able to help when your ferry delay disrupted your holiday. We’re also really pleased that you felt the support was accessible and supportive throughout, but we’re very sorry that arranging your second trip felt more difficult than the first. We always want to make the planning stages as easy as possible, and we're sorry that it didn't feel that way this time around.
After reviewing the correspondence, there was definitely more back and forth than expected to create an itinerary that balanced your preference for a faster journey with our goal of creating routes that are enjoyable and reliable. Unfortunately, there was also a technical issue affecting the dates, and we sincerely apologise for the confusion this caused. We’re also sorry about the ferry terminal information. The ferry operator had recently changed the check in location for certain sailings, and regrettably we were not made aware of this update in time. We have since updated our documentation and guidance so future customers are directed to the correct check in point.
Thank you again for your constructive feedback. We’re so pleased you embraced the adventure of travelling with us twice, and we hope to help you plan more trips in the future too.

My second time travelling with Byway. My trip to Sardinia was very well organised, with great selections of accommodation and destinations.Their quick response to a couple of queries gives me confidence that they would be able to help if I actually needed assistance.

Appreciate wonderful landscapes by train
Our first Byway rail trip through Alsace to Switzerland. Everything went smoothly and comfortably. We stayed in a variety of different hotels, all of which were lovely and well located. Cannot recommend more highly travelling around Switzerland by rail organised by Byway who responded to our every request when setting up this trip for us. Definitely would like to do another Byway rail trip.

Byways - fantastic service
We recently took a trip organised by Byways Travel to Vienna. All the hotels we stayed in were good quality with excellent breakfasts. The trains were comfortable and relaxing. We had one train which was cancelled, I used the WhatsApp service we had been given by Byways and within 5 minutes they had found an alternative train and booked us on - amazing service.

Making rail travel easy
Have used Byway twice for trips to Morocco and Slovenia. It’s great to have the flexibility to decide where and when you want to go but let them do the hard graft of working out timetables and choosing hotels.We felt very well supported throughout the process. Train travel is so much more interesting than hanging around airports.

Nordic countries semi-retirement trip
Bartek at Byway put together a wonderful trip by ferry and train from Finland through Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany and The Netherlands back to the UK, based on my outline plan. The hotels were well chosen, mostly full of character and invariably well located, and the WhatsApp support was great for peace of mind. When one of my trains was cancelled, Bridget managed to book me onto a late one that evening then, because it was delayed and I would arrive in Oslo alone after 01:20, covered a taxi for me and stayed on WhatsApp to check I'd arrived safely. I'm now thinking about where to go next and of course I'll come back to Byway!

Superbly curated trip!
My friend and I have just had a week travelling between Paris, Zurich & Milan. What a wonderful trip. Journeys were seamless, we extended one of our stays with ease and the support teams responsiveness was superb. The hotels were located in less touristy locales and each had unique character that we loved. Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys no hassle exploring!
