Fabulous tour, spectacular scenery and a great adventure. A complete mix of old and new, a variety of accommodation, great food, friendly people and a throughly enjoyable trip. Loads of cultural sights, from the glacier to swimming in the icy water of the fjords, Constitution Day parade in Voss and seeing the waterfalls from the Flam train trip., and ferry.
Highly recommend this trip.

Fantastic tour! I would recommend it to anyone. Our Guide, "Shabby" was great. She was very informative all along the way, with sights, history and even music. The tour itself was well planned, with plenty of sightseeing mixed in with the driving. We have to give a shout out to our driver, who negotiated the treacherous Norwegian roads with aplomb. All in all, a great tour.

This was a wonderful way to see the splendours of Norway. Our enthusiastic guide Shabby and excellent driver Si, made sure we experienced and learned so much about Norway. We travelled almost 1000 miles in comfort with many interesting stops and walks. We saw much more than any cruise ship could offer. Certainly the best way to discover the wonders of Norway

Wonderful tour of the Norwegian Fjords and Glaciers with the magnificent Shabby!
She is a delight - informative, entertaining , warm and friendly.
Highly recommended.

Great tour. Tour guide, “Shabby” Flanders was outstanding and set the bar for a group tour guide. Her knowledge and communication skills superb. She had obviously done her homework. She knew local history, real backroads, which cafes, vistas, etc. She made the trip fun for all 17 of us.
She is a unique soul of whom your company can be proud.

Excellent experience with a very Knowledgeable Tour Guide named Shabby who really brought Norway alive for us.
Beautiful country shared with a great group of people and an exceptional tour guide, made this tour memorable.

Day after day we travelled through areas of outstanding natural beauty. We drove past mountains, lakes, waterfalls, fjords and glaciers, stopping for interesting activities or to enjoy the local cuisine along the way. Our very knowledgeable guide Shabby was able to give us plenty of information about the places we visited.

Excellent leadership and driving. Shabby was very knowledgeable and humorous in her accounts of the events of the day and history of the areas we traveling through. Si was a very good driver on the potentially dangerous roads.

The most amazing scenery, all the time. We had a fantastic guide and very skilled driver.
Most of the time, we stayed away from crowds and it was just beautiful.

Our very first Bus tour with a Guide, it was very well organised and the Bus driver and Host were great.

ok tour but accommodation was below standard (hotel staff were good)
Oslo - accommodation fair
Ulvic - good view from the hotel but room was terrible
Sognal - good view but room very ordinary
the guide was helpful and informative and did as good as he could given what seemed to be a case of fixing issues as he went -
guide was fixing backroad management problems - ie organising meals that should have been organised and included as there were very few options for meals

Well planned tour with excellent guide. Only reservation was the use of two hotels overrun by multiple big buses resulting in overcrowded breakfast and poor restaurant service.

This Back Roads tour was absolutely fantastic. Our tour guide was brilliant in every aspect. Very informative. Also great bus driver. I would thoroughly recommend.

A wonderful tour with the best tour guide ever, Shabby.
Very well organised with an opportunity to view the fabulous scenery, stay in some wonderful locations and savour the best Norwegian food.

Norway itself is magnificent. The scenery is spectacular and the people and the culture are really lovely. The tour guide was also excellent. However the hotel options and food .. dinner and lunch options provided by Backroads in a number of places were dreadful, tiny rooms with often poorly functioning facilities. Some of the meals provided under their package were awful and extremely limited.

A great trip very good guide that gave us lots of information.
great scenery to see and this was a great way to travel (as a small group)

Looked forward to seeing the fjords and glaciers and they didn’t disappoint.
The day we went up over the mountains to the Geiranger Lookout was amazing. We experienced a snow storm so we could not see much but it was a lot of fun. Very cold but memorable.

VG. Couple of the hotels not located in a place where evening dinner options are available. Sights were fantastic

Sub standard hotels Not suited to the demographic who take these tours. Some hotels had no lifts and one room we stayed in was disgusting and when we checked out I told the staff and the person I spoke to said “I thought that room was closed down”. Breakfast at most hotels was not acceptable

Saw all of the things that we had hoped to ser

Really good small tour taking in the back roads and generally staying away from the large cruise shops.

could upgrade stay places and offer more meals - at least 2 meals/day.

What can I say it was beautiful.

We loved the tour and information provided by marrit

As above. Tour guide brilliant, hotels variable. The driver was very uncommunicative as he could hardly speak English and drove a little fast.
