[6] Leger started operating coach tour holidays between the United Kingdom and Continental Europe, from their base in Rotherham, South Yorkshire since 1983.

[12] On 10 June 2007, a Leger Holidays coach crashed into a house in Middelkerke, Belgium, after potentially swerving to avoid conflict with a car.

[15] In June 2020, Leger Holidays acquired the brand of Shearings, a rival coach operator, as well as its customer database and website.

Leger stated they are "bringing the iconic Shearings name back to life" and that they will offer a new programme of coach holidays in the UK and Europe.

[21] The announcement followed Shearings' parent company Specialist Leisure Group (SLG), being placed into administration in May 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the travel industry.

[28] In January 2022, Leger Shearings announced they were on target to set a monthly sales record since the group was founded in mid-2020.

[30] In April 2022, Leger announced a 5–10% increase in prices,[31] as well as their reintroduction of tours for various 2023 European motorsport events since the pandemic.

With destinations including; Austria, Canada, France, India, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Spain and the United States.
