Backroads trips are the sweet spot—guided but not rigid, social but not overwhelming. The leaders are equal parts pro and playful, and the whole experience just flows.

Backroads trips are unlike any other. The connections I’ve made with fellow travelers and the unforgettable memories are things I’ll cherish forever. It’s the combination of fresh air, physical activity, and deep relaxation that creates an experience you can’t help but carry with you.

FAQs
Whether you're solo, a couple, or traveling with friends, adults in their 30s and 40s and their traveling companions up to age 55 are welcome. Prefer to mix it up with adults of all ages? Join one of our Classic trips, or check out our trips for families or private groups.
While the overall trip design and support are the same as our Classic trips, these departures are exclusively for travelers in their 30s and 40s. We’ve selected bucket-list destinations that resonate most with these guests, featuring rich cultural experiences, epic routes, distinctive accommodations, and plenty of time to explore.
