The average group size on all Backroads trips is 18. The maximum number of guests range from 14 to 20 on our walking trips, and from 16 to 26 on biking and multisport trips. Backroads offers trips exclusively for families to a diversity of destinations, with routes and amenities designed for the mix of ages and abilities. Due to hotel age limitations, there are some trips where children must be a minimum age to participate. Our prices are based on double occupancy.
Single tents are available for rent on camping trips.
Trips for solo travelers are designed for any adult who is traveling solo or with a friend, but not as part of a couple. The intent of these trips is to offer a comfortable environment for travelers sharing the bond of independent travel. For carefree travel, we recommend renting one of our 27-speed Cannondale touring or mountain bikes. In rare instances when Backroads bicycles are not available, models of comparable quality will be offered for rent. If you choose to bring your own bike, your Trip Consultant can offer tips on the best ways to ship it to the trip start.
