Alex was an absolute pleasure to work with. She listened to what was important to us, changed the few things we wanted and put together a fantastic itinerary for our trip! This is our first time going to Scotland and we are so excited to see everything we wanted to!

We booked our Scottish holiday with Tristan, what I really liked was that he got us an itinerary very quickly and then followed up with video calls. He made any adjustments we wanted and answered all our questions quickly. Following up and changing what we needed is very useful for a procrastinator like me. Thank you Tristan :) Kim and Craig

We dealt with Sean. He was amazing to putting our trip together. We had 2 video calls with him and multiple texts.
He made several changes after each call. Talking to him was like talking to a friend. Lots of storytelling. I would highly recommend him. He made the booking process so easy.

Peter was very attentive and productive with helping us plan our GO rail travel trip to Scotland in September 2026. He modified the itinerary to make sure we would see all the areas we were interested in and worked with us on making changes as requested promptly. He always called on time to discuss the rail trip with informative and detailed emails as a follow-up. He included a great video describing the entire itinerary with a personal commentary and was able to answer all our questions. We are really looking forward to our rail trip to Scotland this Fall. Thanks Peter!

Booking my trip to Scotland, Alex was extremely helpful and knowledgeable on where to go. She listened to my list of places I wanted to go and made adjustments as we made small adjustments.

Sean was so helpful and personable. He listened to all my responses and changed the itinerary accordingly. He was great to work with and we got the trip of a lifetime scheduled with ease and confidence. The videos he sent of where we were going were spectacular. We could not have had a better travel guide. He obviously is very knowledgeable. He was able to suggest alternatives and include things and delete them in the itinerary with ease almost instantly. I would recommend working with him to anyone who is considering traveling.

Adam is a lovely person to deal with. He’s very knowledgeable, friendly, polite & professional. It’s been a pleasure working with him to plan our dream vacation. Thank you again Adam, we truly appreciate you!

Our Swiss rail trip was canceled by a different company but we already had plane tickets and pre and post reservations. I found GoRailTravel and they were able to put together a wonderful trip itinerary. I worked with Joe, going back and forth, making sure we had everything we needed and wanted. Even with the 9 hr time difference we were able to talk and get everything planned. I am really looking forward to the trip and will write a review after it is over.

Tristen was a great representative for Go Rail Travel. He took the time to understand what we wanted, worked within our timelines for travel while keeping ongoing and timely communication with an 8 hour time difference in our geographical location's. On short notice are trip was organized with all the sights we wanted to see. Thank you for making travel easy.

Joe was the best. I’ve dealt with travel agents a lot and he connected with us right away. Understood our needs an efficiently came up with a plan. He was punctual in getting the info to us and explaining and answering our questions. Thank you Joe hope to meet you sometime

This is my first dealings with GoRailTravel and I have been very impressed with our Travel Agent Sean. Sean is very detailed and put together a great plan for us to see Switzerland. He does an outstanding job listening to what the clients want and offering suggestions and ideas that might enhance the trip as well as introduce things we may not have thought of. The video phone conference is a great tool and really gives you a great preview of what your trip will look like. The reviews for this company are very good, and Sean is a great representative. We are very excited as we work to finalize our agenda for this trip.

Great experience with Sean….customized trip exactly to our needs. Would highly recommend to anybody

Sean , Thank you so much for planning our dream trip!

Peter was very patient and helpful with planning a trip to Scotland. He suggested areas to see, worked with me on making changes as requested promptly and made time for several phone calls and informative emails. I especially enjoyed the short video he sent detailing the itinerary. Can’t wait to relax on the trains through Scotland and explore the cities, Isle of Skye and highlands!
Sincerely, Diane

No question was ever too small, and Sean always took the time to explain everything clearly and thoroughly. From helping with the itinerary to offering guidance on accommodations, travel details, and must-see experiences, he made me feel completely confident and cared for every step of the process.
What truly stood out was his responsiveness, attention to detail, and passion for making sure this trip was everything I dreamed it would be. It is clear that Sean genuinely cares about his clients and wants them to have unforgettable experiences.
If you are planning a special trip, especially a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, I cannot recommend this company enough. Thanks to Sean, my dream trip to Scotland is finally becoming a reality, and I could not be more excited or grateful!

Adam was fabulous to deal with, very responsive in the time leading up to and during our trip. The itinerary Adam provided was the perfect balance between a schedule and flexibility. His attention to detail was greatly appreciated and he listened to and met the specific needs of our group of four. I would highly recommend booking through Gorailtravel and specifically Adam.

This is the first time we have used a travel service as I have always done the booking myself. We wanted to see a bit of Italy and and travel by train all over Switzerland. I had a very good initial conversation with Sean who walked me through the process he used for trip planning. It would be far easier for me to have the travel booked by a specialist who can handle all of the hotel bookings, rail travel and recommendations and booking for activities we are interested in. Sean listened well and sent our initial itinerary for review and it was absolutely in line with what I had outlined. We reviewed all of the details and then decided we wanted less train travel time and more time at our destinations for hiking, exploring and site seeing. Sean revised our trip based on my input and came up with a great itinerary that we are very excited about. I am confident if we need to make any changes or have additional questions before or during the trip that Sean will be there to answer them.

Joe was absolutely fantastic to work with in planning our Italy and Greece trip. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand exactly what we wanted—balancing efficiency, comfort, and unforgettable experiences—and turned it into a seamless, well-thought-out itinerary.

He guided us through everything from flights and rail travel to hotel selections and excursions, making what could have been an overwhelming process feel easy and organized. His recommendations were spot-on, especially when it came to optimizing travel routes and avoiding common pitfalls. We especially appreciated his insight on timing, transfers, and how to structure the trip so it flowed naturally without feeling rushed.

Joe was also incredibly responsive and detail-oriented, answering all of our questions and proactively offering suggestions we wouldn’t have thought of on our own. It’s clear he brings both expertise and genuine care to his work.

If you’re planning a multi-destination trip and want someone who can truly elevate the experience, I highly recommend Joe. He made this dream trip come together flawlessly.

Working with Alex in advance of our trip has been brilliant. She is responsive, detail oriented, and enthusiastic. It is clear she wants us to have the trip we envision -- a custom experience -- and not a one-size-fits all. My conversations with her and imagining great adventures have already brought me joy!

Wehave not been to Ireland before and we wanted to see as much of the country as possible in the time we had. Peter at Gorailtours has been so helpful to accomplish this and make suggestions. I gave him some things I had heard about and he put together a trip that we are really looking forward to. He drafted the itinerary and then followed up with phone calls to get my feedback. This made it much easier for me. He was always pleasant and helpful.
