Looking to do a ~10 day road trip around Bavaria, Switzerland, and/or Austria and northern Italy. Probably a 1-way car rental trip. Mid-late August.
My original plan was to do a very leisurely, roundabout, scenic trip from Munich to Milan... but I think that would miss a lot of cool shit, so.... suggest me better route??
Want: Autobahns, picturesque scenic Alps landscapes, quaint Bavarian back roads, Germanic precision, Swiss wealth, old wooden farm houses, mix of city and rural. Want to keep it very relaxed (maybe even spend 2-3 nights at a couple spots?) and only drive a couple hours per day. Prefer nice hotels, but I'm willing to stay anywhere that is not full of drunken Aussies. Our budget is generous but certainly not unlimited.
Don't want: Endless boring museums and old buildings (culture is cool but not into endless art galleries and history tours and shit), insane crowds, shitty weather, excessive language barriers (unlikely I'd imagine), or to feel rushed at any point. Also prefer to start and end the trip near major airport hubs as we're flying in from London and flying onwards to Asia thereafter.
Would very much appreciate any tips or ideas on: route planning, must-see towns and cities, places to avoid, insanely expensive shit to be aware of, and so on....
JA!!! DANKE!!!
