There are many features that distinguish Back-Roads Touring from other travel and tour companies – small groups of 18 or less, authentic local experiences, boutique accommodation, and of course, scenic back roads touring.
But what’s a tour without reliable, and comfortable transport? With Back-Roads, travellers never have to worry about endless road-trips, travelling overnight, or wasting valuable time shuffling on and off giant coach buses.

Thanks to their luxurious Mercedes mini-coaches and Mercedes Vito mini-coaches, the Back-Roads approach to touring is far more civilised, and personable than the style of touring often found when going by traditional coach.
Perfect for getting off the main highways, there’s no better way to visit the picturesque villages and cosmopolitan cities along the way. That’s because the luxurious mini-coaches used by Back-Roads can travel the same narrow roads that cars can. That means greater access to a great many places that the larger coaches wouldn’t be able to access.
