Why you should choose Byway

Fully customisable rail holiday packages: Byway offers both pre-configured and fully customisable train travel packages.
All train tickets and hotel bookings are included in your rail holiday package, and you can tailor the details to suit your preferences. Prefer to travel in first class rather than second? Want to choose a different hotel or take an alternative route? The choice is yours.
Hundreds of exciting destinations: With a Byway package, you can start your holiday from your local railway station and travel wherever you like.
Byway’s rail holidays cover almost all of Europe, from Scandinavia to Spain and from Poland to Italy. There are even rail and sail holiday packages that take you as far as Morocco or Greece by train and ferry!
Excellent support: Byway can be reached by email, telephone, and WhatsApp, and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. If you book through Byway, you can also rely on excellent support throughout your travels.
In the unfortunate event of a train delay or cancellation that may disrupt your itinerary, there is a dedicated out-of-hours emergency line for advice and rebooking, if necessary. Such disruption assistance and re-planning support are included in the price of your holiday package.
Consumer protection: Byway is a member of travel industry consumer protection schemes that guarantee financial security for prepaid package holidays in the event of a travel company’s insolvency.
To be precise, Byway offers financial protection through its ABTA bond for UK customers and its SGR bond for customers in the rest of the world, allowing you to book a rail holiday package with complete peace of mind.
