I typically get well over 2k km between tune ups, but like all riding it is going to be dependent on individual loading and terrain and also the condition of individual components. Wheels & tires and brakes are where touring bikes and road bikes generally have the biggest component differences. Are they up to the task?

Also, will you be comfortable enough? And will you be able to pack enough gear without the mounts found on touring bikes?
