I would highly recommend Back Road Tours. It was great driving on country roads and through country villages and towns. It was more adventurous than cities. I liked the smaller group (14) Our guide...

Fantastic tour! Staff are extremely knowledgeable, kind and helpful.
They are fun to be around.
Thankyou BackRoads.

We saw a varied selection of attractions on the tour. A good variety. Unfortunately we weren't able to visit Sandringham but that was beyond the control of our tour.
Our accommodation was excellent...

Blue Roads Enchanting Eastern England was an enjoyable and interesting tour, with a good, knowledgeable and funny tour director Gideon, and an excellent driver, Simon. This was my second Blue Roads...

Giovanni and Ash were great. I was amazed at Gio’s preparation and narration and “Ash’s” driving skills especially the many tight, “backroads” situations.

My wife and I had a couple of hotel issues...

We did the Enchanting Eastern England tour. Thoroughly enjoyed it, although you do need some fitness. Lots of walking and trying to keep up with guide. However, it was well-worth it. The guide was...

Both guide and driver were exceptional in their knowledge and very accommodating when emergency assistance was needed

Adequate number of days. Excellent tour leader in Charlie. Provided wonderful regional treats throughout the tour.

Well organized lots of historical sites

Good tour . Coach not crowded (9pax in 20 seat Mercedes Sprinter). First class guide.
Vg accommodation except one room. It was exactly what we were looking for.

This Tour was excellent - professional & friendly with very scenic & well-planned with places of interest (eg castles, stately homes, cathedrals etc) & enjoyable hotels & dining. Especially enjoyed...

We enjoyed this tour. The places chose for us to visit ranged from very to not so interesting to us such as the National Horse Stud at Newmarket. The coach was a Mercedes Sprinter which was...

Perfectly planned tour, smaller group allowed us to go down ‘back roads’ & be in the heart of rural communities. Sights visited were amazing, & accomodation & meals were good. Our group was terrific...

This was a relaxed, informative and varied tour. There was a good balance between stunning cathedral and castle visits and relaxed rambles around old towns and country estates. The small group...

This tour was lovely , guided by a really good tour guide. Wish they got us in our hotels sooner so we could do afternoon tours a little refreshed . From 7 am starts to 4 pm is a long day . Just about...

Allan was a lay back, relaxed tour guide and the itinerary was just what I wanted to see. I was delighted that we visited Newgate Stud. Amazing!

Was tired of seeing cathedrals and manor houses.

Felt an overnight stay in Lincoln and Cambridge was unnecessary.

Accommodation was of a very poor standard.

Tour leader’s attitude was a little...

A wonderful tour with a great mix of places of interest. Small group fantastic.

Very good experience. Well run and overall good service. Guide Gideon was interesting and informative. One of the hotels in particular was below expectations and not suitable for older people- the...

Could not have asked for a better, more competent tour guide and driver. They exceded expectations.
I have seen eastern Britain in all its glory.

Everything met my expectations and needs

Our travels from Scotland down the East Coast to London was amazing. I took so many photos! From ruins and old castles, to quaint shops and beautiful open spaces, I feel there was something for...

on the whole the tour was quite good. Would have liked to see more of the culture in the area and less cathedrals and castles. The evening meals the tour provided were one of the down sides of the...

Interesting itinerary - guide had good knowledge of the area

Good - Itinerary, 2 night stays, most hotels, small group
Bad - no wifi on bus, not as much free time as advertised

Great history & a good select of locations
Enjoyed the group to travel with

The tour covered excellent highlights of eastern England and was flexible enough to include two extra stately homes to meet the specific interests of the group. Staying two nights in each hotel was...

Interesting itinerary. Great to be smaller number of people. Good to have two night stays. Tour guide enthusiastic but a bit inexperienced, allowing the more aggressive customers to dictate pace of...

Loved the fact that we were the only ones on some of the back roads in England.

Thought it was great value for the price. Just showed up each morning and things were planned but there was free time to explore as well.

The tour was well planned and took us to places of interest to me. I enjoyed the planned excursions on the itinerary and the unexpected additional places we visited.

Great .. little more motorway than expected

Really was back roads!! Interesting.

Good service, enjoyed the sights and places we visited, most of all great company

The background knowledge and experience of the guide added much to the enjoyment of the tour. There was less focus on trendy aspects of the sites visited, and a deeper examination of all things...

Very good, very friendly and well guided

Very poor choice of hotels. Repetitive and boring activities.poor quality coach. Very poor Covid policy and implementation of basic Covid safety precautions.

Poor quality accommodation badly organised very poor itinerary.

Enjoyed cathedral visits.
Interesting going to Lindisfarne.
Liked seeing different landscapes.
Enjoyed travelling with a varied group of people.
