Summer Holidays / Vacation

[TrevC]

So who's off somewhere nice for their summer holidays / vacation?

Got any road trips planned?

[TrevC]

Off to Greece (Kefalonia) at the end of the month, quite a cheap destination at the moment because of earthquakes, immigrants and poor economy so nice to spend some money with them to support the tourist industry and drink some nice beer along the way.

Just did a 6200 mile road trip around Europe. 16 countries in 16 days. 

All the way to the tip of Norway (most northern road in the while of (europe) to Italy and Austria (highest road in europe) 

The best was driving up the Stelvio pass in Italy.

Here is a brief video of our Adventure.

Hi Eva

Driving in Europe is superb with amazing roads and scenery....but it is also quite diverse with different motoring laws, rules and regs applying to each country.

There are some restrictions in place for traveling with dogs and that is mainly to do with Rabies but as long as your pet has the appropriate jabs and paperwork to prove it then it shouldn't present too much of an issue.

A lot of European countries have what they call a 'Vignette' which is similar to road tax for using their road network, those who don't use a Toll system so you pay for what you use.

There is so much information out there about traveling through Europe and it is worth doing the research to ensure you not only comply with all the necessary requirements of each country but also to ensure that you end up on the best route to take in the spectacular scenery.

More than happy to help with any further information you need.   Cheers,   Trevor
