GBFailure to provide quote or communicate I rang Railbookers a week ago to book rail travel London-Prague-Linz-London plus a hotel in Linz. I have used Railbookers several times in the past and been pleased with the service. However, on this occasion I was promised a same day call back with the quote - it didn’t happen. I chased it two days later and was sent a partial quote for the outward journey only. I have now been absolutely promised a callback on three more days, including today, when I was told that, if the responsible person didn’t call back, then someone else would do so. As a result, one week after my initial call I still don’t have a quote for this simple European trip. I don’t want to give up on Railbookers but no-one will contact me! Update: Since my post, Railbookers contacted me and I finally was able to confirm the booking just over a week after requesting a quote. Unfortunately, fares went up during the week's delay so the cost was higher; they couldn't book an international train from Czechia to Austria (I did it in 5 mins online); and then when the tickets were delivered, my name was wrong on two of them! That took another 24 hours to sort out. I am sticking with Railbookers based on previous good experiences, but I will post an update on here after the trip in July. Oh, and I am still looking out for the promised email from the Customer Services Manager but no sign of that yet...

GBBrilliant advice and service from Railbookers We booked a week long trip to Switzerland and I can’t praise Railbookers enough. Daniella, who helped organise his trip was fantastic and patient and also organised a wedding anniversary surprise at our fabulous 5* hotel in St Moritz - an upgraded room, beautiful surprise patisserie and chocolates, and notes from both the hotel and railbookers. The train journeys were amazing and so were the hotels. Spotless. Swiss attention to detail and service. I would definitely book with railbookers again and ask their experienced staff for advice on organising a trip. Thank you again Daniella.

GBOur booking agent took particular care… Our booking agent took particular care to find hotels that catered for Coeliacs and provided additional information on other suitable restaurants. All of our journeys were trouble free. The QR code for the City Tour booked for us did not work and we hope they will refund for having to pay twice. Our only other comment is that we travelled by rail from San Sebastian to Bilbao, a very scenic route but the bus would have taken 3 hours less.

GBPoor service put right by William Nemer We were advised some days ago that our journey from Geneva to Milan would now be 5:30 am. This wasn't suitable as our connection in Milan couldn't be moved. I researched myself, being a client of Railbookers for over 12 years and knew how to find trains from Paris to Zurich then Milan. I sent these details to Railbookers and despite many emails chasing for some form of acknowledgment and the bookings changed, I received nothing In desperation, I called again and THANKFULLY my call was picked up by # William Nemer, Guest Relations Specialist who was 100% brilliant and knew straight away my concern and proceeded to deal with it rather than pass on or say someone will get back to me, which doesn't happen Come on Railbookers, if Willam Nemer can do it, so can everybody else. Looking after your existing clients shouldn't be a challenge, repeat business of 12 years or more must be worth holding on to, or not...? Get William to train the rest of your staff would keep me for another year!

GBVery disappointed with numerous things Sat February 18th and still waiting for refund , the lies continue from a disgusting company who just don’t care about their customers. Proceed with caution. Very disappointed with numerous things Flight tickets booked in wrong name Wrong room in hotel Rail strikes costing us extra City passes weren’t acceptable Lot of wasted expense and nobody to contact on weekends for tours Disappointed with end to our honeymoon
