countryside vans/ caravans


Explanation:
Partindo da premissa de que sejam grupos pequenos (de agentes de viagem), sugiro "caravan" ou "van".

"caravan: a large covered vehicle for conveying passengers, goods, a sideshow, etc.; van"

  -> Thanks, Margarida!
agree  Mario Freitas: Prefiro "group travels" porque a sugestão da Katarina implicaria em ônibus, e as caravanas do contexto não citam isto. E "caravan" em inglês são trailers/motohomes e não caravanas.

  -> É verdade, Mario, bem observado. Obrigado!
disagree  Elise Dietrich: It makes more sense to say "trips," not "travels" in spoken English when you are talking about a specific journey.

  -> Thank you for your comment, but I don't know why you assumed this is a single event. If they organized "rotas" to be used by "agentes de viagem", probably their intention is to use it on a regular basis ;)
