Ivan Ho | Traveled in October
From the moment our guide ( Helio da Costa ) introduced himself we knew we were on the right tour. Each destination was filled with little tit bits & on occasions little treats from Helio. Our driver (Fabio) gave us the best possible ride, with no-one feeling travel sickness. We certainly found roads that would have changed this but his smooth driving left us in awe. Very much appreciated by everyone.

We had a really wonderful time with Back Roads on the Iberian Inspiration tour. Great company, excellent tour direction, and a great itinerary with a mix of famous large cities and smaller rural towns. Back Roads really lived up to its name, with adventures down country roads and stops in little Spanish hilltop towns. Fabulous! Sarah Downey our tour director was a delightful guide, her fluency in Spanish and knowledge of local history and culture was impressive. She was an exceptional ambassador for BackRoads, her warm and charm enveloped us all, and left happy smiling locals wherever we went.

Fascinating and varied tour. Certainly needed the 2 days in Petra to fully appreciate this amazing site. Our desert stay provided one of the best meals of the holiday cooked under sand and great view of stars. Ending the tour with snorkelling and the Dead Sea made a relaxing end to the trip. Highly recommend!
