Likes the Eagle Creek Tour Travel Pack 40L a lot so far, though only taken on a short car trip.

“just purchased the [40L Eagle Creek Tour Travel Pack](https://www.eaglecreek.com/products/tour-travel-pack-40l-sm). So far I like it a lot, but I only took it on a short car trip.”

Calls the Eagle Creek Tour 40L a great bag that feels more low key than his other 40L pack; fits under an American seat just barely.

“It Is a great bag! It feels a lot more low key than my other 40 liter bag, the REI trail. Both are great but this blends in a little more as a normal backpack”

Owns the Eagle Creek Tour 40L and calls it pretty solid for the price.

“Same bag as I have. Pretty solid for what you pay for.”

Loves the Eagle Creek Tour 40L; only complaint is the space taken by the padding and rain cover.

“Also have this bag and love it. My one complaint is how much space the padding/ rain cover take up but its still massive so its not a huge deal.”
positive

Mostly likes the Eagle Creek Tour 40L but is bummed it has no luggage handle sleeve and the laptop compartment can't be locked.

“I just got this bag too and mostly liked it but bummed out that it has no luggage handle sleeve/strap, and more importantly a way to lock the laptop compartment since it's a single zipper only :(”

Likes the Eagle Creek Tour 40L quite a lot; works well with packing cubes though the rain cover is awkward to tuck.

“I ended up with the Eagle Creek Tour Travel 40L (I got maybe a slightly older model off Sierra). I like it quite a lot!”
positive

Chose the EC Tour Travel 40L over the Fairview and has taken it on many trips without disappointment; sleek and comfortable.

“I ended up liking the EC Tour Travel more and have been taking it on many many trips and it did not dissapoint!”
positive

Has used the old Tour Travel 40L for a year across SEA, Nepal and Europe and is happy: lighter than other carry-on packs, though not as rugged as Osprey.

“Its not as heavy as other carryon packs and have most features i want, so bought it and been happy so far.”
positive

Bought the old Tour 40L for the load lifters; it weighed 45 oz, heavier than listed but still not as big and heavy as the Fairview.

“I just bought the old one and the weight was much higher than listed. I bought it for the load lifters and not as big and heavy as the Fairview.”

Used the Tour 40L for a week and loved it: comfortable adjustable harness, expandable and lightweight, with a handy built-in rain fly.

“I've used it once for a week long trip and it worked great for me. The built-in rain-fly came into good use when I came home to rain while waiting”
positive

Bought the Tour 40L last year and is travelling through Spain with it; great pack, no complaints.

“I bought mine last year, and it's currently on my back as I travel through Spain. Great pack, no complaints here!”

Big fan of the Eagle Creek Tour 40 S/M: very comfortable straps and a hideable hip belt that works better than it looks.

“I'm a big fan of the Eagle Creek Travel Tour 40 in S/M. Very comfortable straps, a hideable hip belt that works better than it looks like it should, and overall, a great”

A petite woman who finds the Eagle Creek Tour Travel Pack 40L super comfortable thanks to its adjustable harness, and likes its look.

“petite woman and I got it for backpacking because the harness is adjustable. I just got mine and find it super comfortable.”

Packs an Osprey Sportlite 20L flat inside his 2022 Eagle Creek Tour 40L with cubes on top, which works great as a daypack solution.

“I have an Eagle Creek Tour Travel 40L and I pack an Osprey Sportlite 20L in it but it lays flat. Then I put my packing cubes and everything else on top of it. Works great.”
positive

Kept the Tour after returning the Explore: it is light, has exterior compression straps, load lifters, a tucking waist belt and fits packing cubes, though the organization is lacking and it feels small for 40L.

“I kept the Tour but cut off the rain fly and interior cinch straps I didn’t like, it isn’t noticeable, didn’t require sewing, and is now lighter. I do like”
positive

Chose the Tour for its comprehensive harness: adjustable back panel height, load lifters, sternum and waist straps and compression straps.

“The Eagle Creek Tour was my choice. it's a pretty comprehensive harness system. Adjustable back panel height, load lifters, sternum strap, waist strap, and compression straps to keep it all close.”
positivegreat harness

Ordered it and is returning it: great materials, shoulder padding and rain cover, but the hip belt was more minimal than expected and he could not get it to fit his back, with scratchy diamond ripstop on the straps.

“ordered the EC, and to my disappointment, I am not going to keep it.”
negative

Owns the 40L in M/L: the sag does not bother him, the compression gets rid of excess space and the rolled-up rain cover is unnoticeable.

“In my opinion having a saggy bad is not bad because it makes the bag a bit lighter. Also the outside compression gets rid of the excess space, thus allowing”

Chose the Tour Travel Pack 40L for a short torso: adjustable torso length, pivoting straps, compresses to about 30L, expands to 45L at only 1.2 kg, and cost about $113 after a discount.

“other things I like about it: subdued aesthetics, load stabilisers, packable shoulder straps, hip belt instead of strap but still for stabilising and not load carry (with short torso, if”

Calls the Tour 40L an excellent under-the-radar bag: super comfortable with an adjustable shoulder rig and waist belt that moves weight to the hips, expandable, with no issues in two years.

“The Eagle Creek Travel Tour 40L is an excellent bag that flys under the radar. It has an expansion zipper to take it to 45 or 50L I can't recall”
