    Leave Rome early for a 6-hour drive to Venice. Take a water taxi (€16) to the Venetian islands. A recent visitor shared: "Venice's early evening light is magical - try to arrive before sunset for the best photos." Remember to pack light since you'll need to carry luggage across multiple bridges to reach most hotels.

    Take an early drive through the Brenner Pass. Stop in Innsbruck for 2 hours to see the Golden Roof and have lunch in the Old Town.

A visitor suggests: "The beer halls near Marienplatz are way less touristy than the famous Hofbräuhaus."

    Rhine Valley Journey

    Drive 4 hours to the Rhine region. Take a 90-minute river cruise to see hilltop castles. Sit on the right side for the best views. Visit a local winery for ice wine tasting and stay in Boppard or Koblenz. Note that many hotels don't have elevators, so be ready to carry bags upstairs.

  • Day 1

    Sofia, Bulgaria

    Begin your Balkan adventure in Sofia. "The walking tour of Sofia's center was fascinating - don't miss the St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral's golden domes at sunset."
