Let’s Drive and Discover Europe

Summer is finally knocking on the doors, so we thought it is the perfect season to chill out with some exciting outbound trips, so now let’s make it bigger and better, let’s take the wheels on a magical discovery, let’s drive in Europe!

You will drive over some of the most beautiful roads and zip past breathtaking scenery including green plains, rolling hills, and the beautiful countryside. Misty waterfalls mark the way and the glistening glaciers shine in full glory. And the real fun beckons you on the high mountain passes of the Swiss Alps and Italian dolomites.

We have chosen one of the most scenic and spectacular routes in Europe… take our word for it! This drive will cover the beautiful region of Switzerland, Italy, Austria and Germany, perhaps the most unspoiled and picturesque part of Europe.

We will drive through the heart of the Swiss Alps and Italian dolomites, across some of the greatest passes in the Alps, including:

· Susten Pass (http://www.myswitzerland.com/en/susten-pass.html);

· Furka Pass (http://www.dangerousroads.org/europe/switzerland/152-furka-pass-switzerland.html);

· Stelvio Pass (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stelvio_Pass);

· the San Bernardino Pass (http://www.planetware.com/tourist-attractions-/san-bernardino-pass-ch-gr-sbp.htm);

· Passo de Pordoi (http://www.alpenfreaks.be/Pordoi.html);

· Cinque Torri http://www.italy-tours-in-nature.com/cinque-torri.html

Our wheels will keep rolling through the Italian Dolomites and the Austrian Alps, where there will be photo-stops in plenty. Driving on, we will come to our next stop in Fussen, the mesmerizing Neuschwanenstein Castle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuschwanstein_Castle).
