The Society of International Railway Travelers

More than six decades ago, I made my first trans-Atlantic crossing. I haven't stopped travelling since. As the years have passed, I have ventured to ever-more distant places and tried new ways of getting from point A-to-B. Increasingly, I have had to turn to the pros. The most professional of all have been Eleanor Hardy, her colleagues at The Society of International Railway Travelers, and their partners abroad. It all started with a "bucket list" journey on the Orient Express. In advance, I thought it would be nice, fun... it turned out to be a totally fantastic experience in every conceivable way. It wasn't only the journey from Paris to Istanbul that was exceptional, it was what Eleanor organized for us after we left the train. Indeed, it was so amazing that within weeks, we had planned a second trip to southern Turkey with Eleanor's help and are now seeking her expertise in planning a trip to Egypt. The Society of International Railway Travelers was not the first company we have turned to for help, but it looks as if it will be the last. They are terrific and have earned our loyalty. In the planning stage they hear (not simply listen to) what you're trying to achieve. Attention is paid to the details. Without question, I give them 5 very bright gold stars for excellence.

I always liked to travel more or less around the world . With my friends ,my family or husband . Now my children have there own families and my husband passed on , but after all the grief I found my love for traveling again .
Just a little bit different . Now I need the convenient of :
1.) Airport pickup
2.) Handling of all the bookings ( hotel , train , entrance tickets,food ....)
3.) Luggage : from the arrival at the airport to the departure all is taken care of by the porters
4.) not to mention all the interesting people from all around the world you meet ( younger and older ).
I have been on two trips so fare and the third one is already booked . There is no way I could book or arrange all that by myself . Be it the entrance to a cave in Slovakia before it opens to the public , the New Years party at the Vienna City Hall , the most delicious food on the train , amazing scenery along the way ......just to much to mention all . As I always say : " around every corner there is a new surprise the hard working people from " The Society of International Railway Travelers " worked out for us.
For me there is now only one way now to travel and with true enthusiasm I can recommend taking a trip with " The Society of International Railway Travelers ".

This is a wonderful organization! We worked with Eleanor to plan a two week trip to India which was outstanding. Eleanor's expertise and experience brought a lot of variety and depth to the itinerary, and her ability to tune into her clients' needs and desires brought suggestions and arrangements that made the trip luxuriously comfortable and convenient. Bravo IRT!
