Backroads launches new Dolce Tempo journeys and expands Active Weekend Getaway trips
BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Backroads, the leader in active travel, today announced the launch of its new Dolce Tempo segment, offering 29 easygoing itineraries, easier than Backroads other trips, but still wonderfully active – perfect for first-timers. These active adventures were created to provide options for guests who may be new to active travel and looking for an alternative to large resort hotels, all-inclusive resorts and even cruises. Dolce Tempo journeys are for travelers who want to escape the crowds and have an authentic one-of-a-kind vacation, immersed in a place and culture, and fully supported by experienced leaders.
Additionally, Backroads is also further expanding its popular Active Weekend Getaways for guests looking for a shorter getaway. The expanded offering includes trips in Saguaro National Park & Tucson, Arizona; California's Sonoma Wine Country; Bend, Oregon; Charleston, South Carolina; Northern Vermont; and Zion National Park, plus new destinations in Whistler, British Columbia, and Texas Hill Country. Dolce Tempo and Active Weekend Getaways, along with all new 2021 trips, are available for booking now.
"We know that the way one chooses to travel is a very personal thing. Because of this, we believe in offering something for travelers who want to experience the unique way Backroads travels," said Tom Hale, Backroads Founder and President. "For some, it's exploring small towns and scenic country roads by e-bike. For others, it's a perfect morning hike followed by down time at the pool and spa. Our new Dolce Tempo journeys are for anyone who simply wants to get outside, away from the crowds, and experience the best of it all at their own easygoing pace. We expect these trips to be, for many people, a door to a whole new style of travel, full of rich experiences and priceless memories."
Backroads also just announced its new 2021 trips, including new adventures in Europe, North America and the Southern Hemisphere. The company has also greatly expanded its 20s & Beyond segment – trips for families with young adults in their 20s and early 30s – with more tours to accommodate guest demand.
