Road Trip Itineraries & Tips

If you are looking for the most epic road trips Europe has to offer- you are in the right place!

I have visited 40+ countries and exploring them by car took them all to the next level 🤩

(Don’t get me wrong though, car hire offers me flexibility, but I also love travelling by train, metro, ferry, bike and bus because public transportation is amazing in most parts of Europe!)

But before you take a look at my favourite road trip routes and itineraries, here are some things you will need to guarantee you are exploring the roads safely and confidently:

🚗 Car Rentals: I always use and recommend Discover Cars for so many reasons!

→They are fantastic value for money, available worldwide and include everything to ensure you drive legally and confidently!

🚨Driving Kits: this one is important!

When driving through different European countries, it is a legal requirement to have certain items in your car—however, these change from country to country.

It is fantastic value for money and has everything you will need!

These are my go-to free resources for car camping 👇

  • Park4night– is community-based so you know the best spots in your area
  • Parkn’Sleep -for spontaneous and safe overnight stays
