Reviews from guests who toured through Europe during August.
RachelĀ | Traveled in August
Amazing leader Carlos. There were just 2 families in our group with large differences in age range. 8 year 12 and 14. Very different needs in the group (due to age range) but Carlos was brilliant at ensuring there was something for everyone. Kayaking was amazing with beautiful places, and the feeling of freedom on the open sea. He was good at engaging everyone to work together. My daughter wasn't strong enough to dive into the green cave but straight afterwards all the kids/teens dive bombed off the cliffs which she loved. And this made up for the disappointment of not seeing the cave. Really well organised and very enjoyable trip. Definitely recommend.
AnonymousĀ | Traveled in August
I thoroughly enjoyed my tour. The tour content was excellent, the accommodation also was excellent. The Tour leader and driver could not have been more helpful. I would highly recommend a Back Roads Tour to my family and friends.
Karen W.Ā | Traveled in August
This was my first trip with Explore! and it was absolutely amazing! I was fortunate also with my fellow participants in our group as they were a wonderful group of people. The guide, Denis, was incredible. His knowledge about the area, the geography, and the flora and fauna was all encompassing. The only glitch Iād say was the lack of wifi in the hotel. The rooms themselves and the food was very good.
Maria JĆønssonĀ | Traveled in August
I had such a great and fun trip! Our guide Loz made sure we had the time of our lives, and nine days after I can confirm that we did - thank you for making this trip unforgettableš©µ

This trip is a great way to see the Greek islands in a group environment. Our group was nice and small which allowed us to have some great experiences that might not be possible in larger groups. There are some great included activities but also ample free time to see other experiences
Robin ByĀ | Traveled in August
I thoroughly enjoyed my 9 day Scottish journey with Back-Roads. Our guide Mike Taylor was exceptional. We went to some amazingly spiritual and picturesque places. The accommodation was very comfortable and I loved the boutique type style instead of "just another hotel room". Abbey was our driver and she was amazing for the some of the back roads that we went on. I always felt very safe. Mike our guide was a really lovely person. He was very informative about the places we went to and had a great sense of humour. The thing I did like is that he didn't consistently talk like some tour guides do. He had a great approach and at a lot of places we were left to explore on our own after he gave us great hints about what to do. I really liked that. Overall I will be recommending Back-Roads to anyone that asks me about my tour.
