      Seeing the steam engine up close was interesting. However the whole journey was uncomfortable and the scenery not overly exciting. The guide was unable to answer the questions we had.

      A very relaxing trip through lovely rural countryside. The staff were excellent and very attentive. I would recommend this trip to anyone that enjoys trains, slow relaxed travel or just looking for a different type of experience.

      The whole trip was lovely. It brought back memories of train travel as a child, the excitement at the station before boarding the train. The train on the turntable was great. The beautiful stations at Dagan and Amamoor were delightful.
