- Gino· May 15th, 2025Smashing tour to see the historic features of Scotland. Excellent opportunity to explore without the pressure of timetables and too many people. Just a small group of 12 and Ed was the best guide. Great knowledge of history and took us to amazing places. Isle of Skye and Isle of Mull the highlights. Well priced.Show more
- Naomi· August 20th, 2024Wow! What a tour! Richard (tour leader) and Abby (driver) are possibly the the two most awesome Scot’s in the world! Thorough knowledge and willingness to find information was an absolute measure of Richard’s skill and experience as a guide! He was perfect as a guide, showing humour, kindness and preparedness to go above and beyond our expectations! Abby was the most confident and courteous driver I have ever experienced. Calm when dealing with touristShow more
- Jennifer· October 24th, 2024I had an amazing time. As a solo traveller I was a bit nervous about the tour, but the other tour guests were so welcoming and friendly. I made some wonderful friends. Terry Gibson our guide was fantastic. He was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Phillip, our driver was great. It was lovely when he joined our group for meals and certain activities.Show more

Asked on May 2nd, 2025What kind of rooms do you offer for families?
- Back-Roads TouringOperator•Written May 2025
Unfortunately the tour operator has advised us that this tour is only available for passengers over 18 so they would be unable to accept any children on this tour.

Asked on February 28th, 2024Would like to take a tour back to London. The Enchanting Eastern England or something similar would be of interest. Prefer small group. Noticed that there was an age range to 80. My wife would be 82 and me 85 at the time of the tour. We are in good health and are mobile. Do you have anything starting on that date or within a day or two?
- Back-Roads TouringOperator•Written February 2024
We do have an Enchanting Eastern England tour that runs from the 26th of May until the 4th of June 2024. Would this interest you at all? You do fall into our rough age demographics as well so that is great!

Asked on February 23rd, 2024Interested in the Edinburgh to London tour but wondering if your travel coaches have toilets - please advise.
- Back-Roads TouringOperator•Written February 2024
As we travel in mini coaches we don't have a toilet on board. Your driver and trip leader will ensure there are frequent stops for passengers to use the toilet.
