Under both owners, the business has built a strong reputation for excellent service and thoughtfully planned itineraries.<\/p>\n<p>A key point of difference is Byroads\u2019 approach to departures. Rather than operating multiple departures throughout the year, each destination has a single departure only, carefully selected around what is considered the best time to visit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI understand that we may not be for everyone due to our limited departures, but that\u2019s ok,\u201d Rawley said. \u201cWe pick what we see as the absolute perfect time of year to run our once-off departure and we don\u2019t plan to expand on that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another element Rawley is keen to retain is the combination of an Australian tour escort with some of the best local leaders and guides available in each destination.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter 30 years in small group travel, I understand the importance of the local leaders who run the tours \u2013 it\u2019s a must as they understand their homeland and bring that cultural expertise to the travelling experience,\u201d Rawley added.<\/p>\n<p>Rawley is also keen to build on Byroads\u2019 existing offering while exploring new destinations and itineraries.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_816863\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-816863\" style=\"width: 1206px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-816863 size-full\" alt=\"Peter Rawley's new purchase, Byroads, offers one departure date per destination.\" width=\"1206\" height=\"883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert.jpg 1206w, https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert-466x341.jpg 466w, https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert-1024x750.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert-768x562.jpg 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1206px) 100vw, 1206px\" src=\"https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-816863 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert.jpg\" alt=\"Peter Rawley's new purchase, Byroads, offers one departure date per destination.\" width=\"1206\" height=\"883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert.jpg 1206w, https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert-466x341.jpg 466w, https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert-1024x750.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travelweekly.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Pete-Desert-768x562.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1206px) 100vw, 1206px\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-816863\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Peter Rawley\u2019s new purchase, Byroads Travel, offers one departure date per destination.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>kabarsula SLOT <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Evolution Travel Collective (ETC) co-founder and industry leader Pete Rawley has acquired Byroads Travel, a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2556,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2555","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kabarsula"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2555","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2555"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2555\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2556"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2555"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2555"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kabarsula.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2555"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
