Back-Roads is a unique small group touring concept. We offer memorable and flexible tours through the UK & Europe, taking you behind the tourist façade to discover local charms, local heritage and history. If you are travelling as an individual, in a couple, with friends or family members, we offer a relaxing alternative to a large coach tour or self-drive holiday, instead we travel in comfortable mini-vans that can access small country lanes and narrow cobbled streets.
We believe travel is not about seeing new destinations, it is about experiencing them. We travel in small groups of no more than 16 per departure, travelling through the charming regions in Europe with a specialist driver/guide. We include more entrance fees and meals than most, and stay in local friendly accommodation that is charming, traditional and unique in character. We have designed our tours to offer more flexibility and free time, where you can relax and absorb your local surroundings and discover the local culture, delicious cuisine, and ancient architecture. We believe you can learn more about a country in 15 minutes on the Back-Roads Touring tour than you can in two hours on the freeway.
