We believe that customers who plan ahead should not be penalised by paying a higher fare than last minute bookers. We believe the prices for our holidays are fair and reasonable, so we do not offer any "last minute discounts".

Book early with confidence

If we reduce the price of our tours for whatever reason, we apply the reduction to everyone, including customers who have already booked. Booking early guarantees your place on your holidays, and you can be confident that will always get the best price.

Flexibility once booked

Should you find you can no longer travel on your confirmed departure for whatever reason, and providing you let us know before the applicable cutoff date, you can change to an alternative date or a different holiday. A small alteration fee applies and full details are in our booking conditions.

Excellent value for money

So much is included in the price of your holiday - excellent rail travel and transfers; fabulous hotels in prime locations; excursions to interesting and cultural places; many meals, some with wine; terrific Tour Managers; all combined with some of the most spectacular scenery Europe has to offer.

No 'hidden' extras

At Great Rail Journeys, we make it clear on each holiday exactly what is included in the price and what extras need to be budgeted for. In the itinerary, occasionally we state 'optional' to indicate that an additional cost will apply.

No surcharges - GUARANTEED

Once you book and we confirm your holiday, we guarantee not to increase the price. No matter how much fuel prices fluctuate or exchange rates weaken, you won't have to make up the difference of rising operating costs.
