What travelers are saying

"A wonderful, well-planned itinerary packed full of gems including visits to Ancient sites, the Citadel, ancient temples, museums, the harbour at Valetta, Mdina, boat rides and much more! This is a busy schedule with not much down time (traffic can be heavy in Malta, which cuts into down time). We had a fantastic time as a group that really gelled together well and had a lot of laughs & fun thanks to my fellow 'trippers'. However, this trip was made a real standout by our superb Tour Leader Althea who is 'made' for her job. An absolute font of enthusiasm and knowledge, highly observant to guests' needs and moods, nothing was too much trouble for her. I hope she is nominated for Explore Tour Leader of the Year as she more than deserves it..an excellent Tour Leader who can make or break a trip & she certainly made ours a memorable one! I would recommend that you dont hesitate if youre thinking of booking!"

"Until Covid clears, I would steer clear of Backroads. We were partially through their June 2020 Costa Rica tour when a guest tested Covid positive. She and her husband were isolated. The rest of the group were offered wimpy masks. Nobody was offered Covid testing daily and masks were not required of the guests or staff. The guides kept repeating "not in the CDC guidelines." Our group of six decided that the Backroads response was inadequate so returned home mid-excursion. The hotel and food was excellent, but the provided bikes were inadequate. The front derailleurs were poorly adjusted, and most of the riders had the chains come off during the first ride. Hikes or bike rides were conducted in downpours. Disappointed for charging such a premium price."

"I took "Red Belgrade-Communist Era" tour on corona times. From the first contact, staff took care of things in a very friendly, flexible and professional way. The tour I got was informative and fun, explaining not only Serbia but other Yugoslav countries. Fully recommended."

"The company provided an excellent pre tour service and the information sent was accurate and useful. I would definitely look at using them again and recommend them to any family."
