Tailor Make your tour through Britain

At first glance Britain may appear a small series of islands, however, under closer inspection you will soon discover that there is an awful lot to visit and experience here outside of London and no matter how many times you visit - there are still plenty more surprises to discover. From the rolling English countryside, ancient castles and medieval towns, through to the 'Dragon Country' of Welsh who's language, Cymraeg, is spoken by more people than all the other Celtic countries and regions of the world put together and then up north to the dramatic  lowlands and highlands of Scotland with its lochs, whisky and fried mars bars. With so much to see and do in Britain It is easy to understand why this remains such a popular destination that is so well suited to the Back-Roads style of travel.

 

Whilst there are many travel options available to the visitor, there is no better way to explore this remarkable region than on a small group guided tour. Not only will you access those lesser known parts of the country, you will hear tales from old and gain a more comprehensive understanding of this great land both past and present as your guide introduces you some of the more remarkable local regions. 

 

A private tour is the perfect opportunity to experience something truly unique and get the most out of your holiday. If you have an idea of what you would like to experience, you can liaise with our private tour consultant who can organise all the logistics to make the tour a reality. A bespoke tour is the best way for a small group of family or friends to enjoy a holiday at your own pace, where you can sit back, enjoy the scenery or get more adenturous and include a little bit of adventure along the way.

 

We have contracted a selected of charming and unique hotels across Britain, however, we can tailor your tour to any budget so if you want to splash out and spend a night in a castle hotel or manor house, or are looking to upgrade your room, or even prefer to stay in smaller B & B's or Guesthouses, we can organise this for you.

 

We can offer a number of suggestions, or let you tell us of some of your own and can arrange this to coincide with a special event or holiday season. We run hundreds of successful private tours over the last 22 years and have a fantastic record for safety, service and customer satisfaction. If you are looking for a different kind of experience in the UK and you enjoy travelling at your own pace, contact Back-Roads for a competitive quote today!
