Tailor-Made tours in Europe

Back-Roads can customise your private tour in many parts of Europe. This is a large continent and there are many countries to explore, however, with Back-Roads you can let us help you design your private tour itinerary and take you to those well-known and lesser known regions in Europe. Imagine yourself admiring the dramatic mountainous vistas in Switzerland, enjoying the architecture in the ancient Imperial Cities in the Czech Republic, tasting delicious wines in Tuscany, learning more about the history of World War II at the battlefield sites in Normandy or learning how to cook paella in Spain. These are just a few of the wonderful experiences that can be yours on a tailor made tour - all specifically designed for a small group of family or friends.

One on the many benefits of choosing Back-Roads Touring is our small and comfortable mini-coaches and expert driver guides. We can access everywhere a car can, so can really take you behind the European tourist spots and let you taste local life as well as hear more about the region’s history from your guide. We like to design our tours with a degree of flexibility so you can take time to savour another glass of wine over lunch or wander through an exquisite old town at your own leisure.

At Back-Roads Touring our goal is your enjoyment, so we offer a truly personal service from the moment you contact us to the final day on your tour.

Whether you have a good idea as to your itinerary, or you want us to assist you with your planning, just get in touch and we can start working on the logistics and offer suggestions so you can look forward to a personal tour that you really get excited about (and make your friends who don't come with your jeaous!).
