    Guide was friendly, always helpful and knowledgeable. Small number was conducive to getting to know each other and convenience in going to places. Locations were interesting, the country around Yorkshire and the Peaks was outstanding.

    Smashing 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.

    · May 8th, 2025
    A very comprehensive tour of World War 1 western front battlefield sites and cemeteries with an emphasis on the ANZAC involvement led by a very knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed the tour with the highlight of course being the dawn service at the Australian War memorial at Villers Bretonneux. If any improvements were to be made more time could have been spent explaining what we were going to see while on the bus travelling to a site rather than explaining the same when we got to a site would have meant less time standing around listening at the site and more time to explore the site. Also at times it felt like we were driving around in circles. The hotel accommodation except at Amiens was good. The hotel at Amiens was charitably speaking very average although the location was excellent.

  • S

    Shirley

    Asked on July 19th, 2024

    What month would you recommend for warm weather - not the extremes of winter or summer? What airlines provide the quickest travel time from Melbourne to Bucharest? What would a common travel time be? Can we arrange to stay a night or 2 in the same room in the same hotel as the tour will stay at in Bucharest?

    • Back-Roads TouringOperatorWritten July 2024

      May through to September is a great time to travel to Romania as the weather tends to be warm but comfortable. Having a quick look online, it seems that Qatar has the shortest flight time from Melbourne to Bucharest, but travel time on average will be around 24 hours. Yes! Once you have a booking with us, we can check pricing and availability for any pre or post accommodation you may need.
