Donal:
• Donal started off Interrailingpackages with the sole aim of making Interrailing accessible to everyone. After buying my 1st Interrail Pass back in 2008 and heading off on a trip, it was clear early on that there was so much more involved than just purchasing an Interrail Pass and “train hopping” from one place to the next (which a little research before-hand would have explained!)

Despite the availably of information online, it was obvious from reading and reviews that there was a huge section of people who wanted to use Interrail, but who were held back by the amount of organisation it involved. I wanted to create a unique product that catered for the section of the market put off by the organising involved.

And so Interrailingpackages was born in 2009- to include not only the pass and reservations, but also handpicked Hostel Accommodation partners and Hotel partners to enhance our travellers Interrailing experience. Since then we have went on to add additional features such as access to discounted tours, free travel cards & discounted travel insurance.

From a 1 man show in 2009, Donal now employs 6 others. The business is growing form strength to strength and this year has been the biggest yet.

Fun Fact: Claims to be his wifes 5th child.

 

Niamh:

• Niamh’s love for travel began with her own interrailing trip across Europe as a broke university student, which fuelled her passion for exploring the world on a backpacker budget. Intrigued by the call of the unknown, she ventured to Southeast Asia, where she embraced the role of an English Language Teacher, sharing knowledge and nurturing connections with a new and captivating culture. Her travels led her to the vibrant landscapes through Southeast Asia where she embraced the backpacker life while exploring metropolitan cities, lush jungles, diving into crystal-clear waters and immersing herself in the traditions and cultures of this fascinating region of the world. Her flair for travel planning has brought her to Interrailing Packages, where she loves sharing her expertise with our customers to make their dream trips a reality.

From the leading cities, to the mountainscapes, she has created cherished memories and proving that travel knows no bounds.

•Having visited 45 countries in less than 10 years, Laurens passion for travel extends beyond her own adventures; she has always held a deep-seated desire to assist others in planning their dream journeys.
