- Alec· June 28th, 2019The tour was sensational only 10 on the tour from USA New Zealand and Australia. We all bonded really well. Our driver Juanma was delightful and an extremely competent driver. Elaine went out of her way to explain the history culture and added little known facts about each area visited. The accommodation was five star all the way.There was also enough time to do our own exploring and relaxing as the pace of the tour was just right. We can't speak more highly of the tour and would recommend it to everyone wanting an informative and relaxong holiday.Show more
- Janine· October 11th, 2017This was my first tour with Back-Roads and it was positive overall.. It is beautiful countryside and the pace was good on average (though at times too slow and others too rushed.) Our guide kept telling us he was not allowed to act as a local guide and would send us off with a map. I would have preferred to have a local guide more often. Sometimes our guide could have used the time on the bus better to tell us about the next stop so that we knew what we were seeing. One day we had a local guide for an hour or so in the morning, and another local guide for an hour or so in the afternoon, and the rest of the day was free time with no explanation about the village we were in.Show more
- Alan· June 30th, 2022Both the driver, Joao, and our guide, Justin, were excellent. Meals and hotels were good and the stops were all excellent. We did not receive the tiles we made in Lisbon as promised.Show more

Asked on December 31st, 2024Please could you advise what facilities are available on the bus? Also how much space for seating? How long will be the longest amount of time sitting on the bus? This is for the Madrid to Lisbon tour in October 2025.
Back-Roads TouringOperator•Written January 2025We usually use Mercedes Sprinter Mini Coaches with 19 seats (excluding the driver). The lay-out of the seating is usually rows of 2 seats and 1 seat with 4 seats at the rear. Air-conditioned, with large windows for enjoying the views. There is a jump seat next to the driver. Overhead storage for small carry-on backpack or handbag. No wifi on board. No assigned seats, passengers are encouraged to swap around! Small fridge onboard for medication. On a full tour day, we are generally on the road from 9am to 5pm with the coach stopping multiple times throughout the day. Stints of driving are usually no longer than 1.5 hours but may be longer if it's a big travel day. Generally, driving time will not add up to more than three or four hours per day.
