Expertly Crafted Small Group Tours with Back-Roads

Back-Roads Touring is about slipping away from the well-worn routes and into the quieter edges of each place, where the pace shifts and the details come forward. In France, it might be narrow lanes between stone villages and markets set up before the day fully wakes, in Italy, hillside roads that lead into small towns where recipes are passed down rather than written down. In Cornwall coastal backroads open into fishing coves and cliff paths where the sea does most of the talking, while in Scotland the journey threads past lochs, glens and villages that feel held apart from time. 

These journeys are shaped for those who prefer to move beyond the surface and step into the quieter rhythm of a place, where everyday life reveals itself in small, meaningful moments. These are journeys designed not just to show a place, but to let you step into it - where local life unfolds through family-run kitchens, shared stories, quiet backstreets and long-held traditions that shape the character of each destination. For a limited time, 2027 departures are available at 2026 prices.*

With over 40 years dedicated to small-group travel, Back-Roads Touring has refined the art of travelling deeper, where each journey is designed to feel more personal and connected:

  • Connect with a small group

  • Be guided by the best

  • Soak up every moment

  • Feel like a local

  • Go beyond the surface
