Anyone tour with Backroads recently?

Looking at a tour to Norway and Sweden with them. Impressions? How is the bike they rent you? Would you take another? Can you compare them to a Trek Travel trip? Similarly priced.

Did you happen to take this trip?
I have a work hiatus coming up in 25-26 and thinking of using a week of it for myself. The Oslo-based trip probably the most realistic/interesting, although Vietnam is really calling to me if I am able to swing the extra time needed.

Sorry I missed this when you originally posted it.

Yes, last Sept. In brief - excellent trip, would do another in a second.

I'll give more details if you'd like.

Here's my trip report.

I did not. I ended up going a different direction entirely and spent my vacation dollars on a Northern Lights Tour in Fairbanks in March. Didn't end up taking a big tour this year. Next year, I hope to do something
