Awesome time at San Fermin

Stoke really knows how to do San Fermin!!!! Went there a few weeks ago with a group of friends, and I can honestly say that I had the time of my life. I was on the 24 hour trip, so I didn't get to see the campsite, which I regret as I've heard good things about their festival 'Stoked in the Park'. The city of Pamplona itself was absolutely insane- parties began from 10am in the morning on every street. I've never seen anything like it before. Definitely a must-see if you ever plan on heading over to Spain.

The bus was a little chilly, but otherwise no major improvements that I can think of.

Party train

Was a fun trip for new years! Compared to the prices of the regular trains to Edinburgh I'm so glad I took this trip. Went with a bunch of mates and from experience the best advice I can give you is to pace yourself!!! It's a long day! Got a free bottle of prosecco at the start of the trip which was mad and the shapes we got given was a game changer. The train up was the best way to start off NYE partying on a moving train and making heaps of new friends. Big crowds in Edinburgh so a lot of queuing and waiting but thats a new years festival for ya.. taking a small backpack is essential ! Edinburgh police are super strict on the size of bags you can take in to the festival so check up on that. Other than that was a pretty sick time. When we weren't allowed back into the after party venue one of the staff took me and my mates with a big bunch of people to a different club so we stayed out till the train left. Slept the whole way back on the train so that was perfect. Would recommend using stoke if youre planning to head to Hogmany or even if unsure what to do for new years I can definitely vouch for this trip!

Perfect last minute NYE celebration

I had the best time on the Stoke train from London to Edinburgh. I really wanted to go to Hogmanay to celebrate the beginning of the new year but didn't have a lot of time off work. Stoke provided the best pre party on the train as well as guidance to the Hogmanay festival. It was a really long day but the train ride home provided a great opportunity to gain some rest. Would definitely recommend to anyone else looking for a fun and unique way to celebrate New Years Eve!

New Years done right👏🏼

The Hogmanay train on NYE was great for many reasons! I was travelling alone and it was possibly one of the easiest ways to make friends and socialise in. The staff were extremely inclusive and it was the perfect environment for me as a solo traveller and also for the many people I met going in groups.

It was well organised, we had breakfast and were given champagne and snacks to take on board (packet of chips and juice) not gourmet but still tasty! The train left on time and the party kicked off as soon as the train departed.

There was an MC over the speakers and staff moving from each carriage, we had freedom to move around, drink, played all kinds of games and as a surprise they gave out boxes of shapes to all the carriages (all aussies will know how good that actually is)

Arriving In Edinborough was easy and we had the freedom to do as we pleased. I’d recommend taking warm clothes and a small backpack as they don’t let big ones in.
After the festival there was an after party which was your usual club get up. Unfortunately the club owner kicked everyone out for being too rowdy and we had to wait 2 hours until the train station opened, but I guess we can’t blame stoke for that. I’d say a few other people weren’t happy with waiting however if you’re up for a huge party on NYE and are in the right company you’ll be fine!

After that we were on the train home and I slept the whole way. Overall I’d rate 9/10 as the party element was exceptional and so welcoming, Stoke provided the best way to enter 2018. I would highly recommend this for anyone travelling in groups or individually!

See you next year Stoke Tavel!

What would you improve about this program?
The only negative is that the train wasn’t cleaned between arriving and leaving Edinborough. But that’s not really a huge issue. Overall a fantastic night!

Stoked

This was an amazing program for people in their 20s looking for an affordable way to travel to events. When you are young, paying for travel can be difficult, and when you do get to travel, you have to choose carefully where you stay, and what you buy while there. Stoke Travel provided us with everything we needed while in a fun environment. I have recommended Stoke to everyone I know going to every festival or event.

What would you improve about this program?
more coverage if and when it rains.

Springfest 2018

This year I went with Stoke Travel to Springfest in Munich. First of all the weather was just amazingly good with every day sunny weather. The food was so good and the party vibe was always there! I enjoyed myself every day while being accompanied with the Stokies and other lovely people. During the night it got a bit chilly so finding a snuggle buddy was quite neccessary but besides that it was an amazing experience! The unlimited booze is a must have when you are there since doing beer or sangria bongs with your mates is really fun. The staff was great and made sure that everyone had a great time while being there!

What would you improve about this program?
Maybe a bigger variety in drinks would be nice since we only got beer and sangria.

Springfest with Stoke Travel

I went with Stoke travel to Springfest and stayed in a clean erect tent, which I had to myself. It had 2 sleeping bags and mattresses. The campsite was miraculously decorated with all sorts of fun signs and paint. The food was amazing and better than expected for a campsite. I loved the Paella.the best part of the whole camp was the Unlimited booze. It was so nice to not have to spend my life’s savings on wine and beer. The camp was the perfect pregame morning party before we headed to the beer halls. The guides were informative, fun, and relaxed. They made me feel like I was apart of the family. The wheel of misfortune was so much fun. They even had a cool life size Jenga game. There was never a dull moment or a bad vibe at camp. The crew and staff were all very accommodating and were knowledgeable and helpful.
The Stoke campsite had a party vibe from dusk until dawn. The guides told us how to get to the festival and gave us information sheets.
The festival itself was so much fun and less crowded than Oktoberfest. It was more intimate. The food was amazing. The people were friendly and the rollercoaster rides were a blast. the weather was amazing the whole weekend. I would recommend Stoke Springfest to anyone. One of the best experiences I’ve had.

Best New Years Eve party ever!

This was the perfect trip option for me for NYE as it allowed me to go to the biggest Street Party in the UK, travel like a VIP on a private train and meet some awesome people from all over the world! It was also super convenient as once I booked and paid for the trip I didn't have to worry about a thing. Check in was easy, we were given breakfast, venue was close to the train station, all tickets were included and as a bonus we got a bottle of bubbles to celebrate the end of the year!
If you don't have a lot of money (or time) I would definitely recommend this 24 hour tour to Edinburgh for a great experience that you won't soon forget.

All Aboard the Party Express!!!

Went on this 24 hour party train from London to Hogmanay and loved it! Stoke Travel really got me excited for it from the word go, with a nice breakfast roll in the morning and a few drinks to start it off right.

The train up was buzzing and you could feel the good vibes the whole time! We celebrated different countries New Years at different times (even North Korea!).

We all got a bottle of bubbles to celebrate in style and the train was super comfortable.

And I hadn't even arrived yet!

The street party was insane and had really cool stages and carnivals and the christmas market was still going which was nice to see.

Really good organising by I believe her name was Liv? and the team, they always knew the answers to any questions.

By the train ride home I was pooped and was able to recharge the batteries.

Cheers Stoke Travel!

Oh baby you're so fine, you taste like wine, please be mine, put in your beh...

San Vino was definitely a fuzzy one! Traditional spanish fiestas in the middle of the wine producing region of Spain. Imagine an early morning shower of wine with hundreds of people splahsing each other with smiles and litres of jesus' blood. Well my weekend was laughter all round! These guys definitely know how to cater and make you feel special. They take care of transport, food, accomodation and send you to all the right places to ensure you enjoy hassle free.
