The Organisers

  1. Byway Travel, experts in rail, they claim! I travelled by train and learned a number of things, often about local transport in the cities. These include Zurich, which I bought from a machine at the Zurich HB bus station. Venice, which I bought online ( they send you a code and the ticket needs to be picked up at the ticket office, so best bought on arrival at the ticket office opposite Venice SL and Paris where I have a navigo card and now the IDF Mobilities app which I need to work out how to use.

Lecco

I loved Lecco, although did not do so much there, but the Hotel has fab views from the dining room and the room’s balcony.
