Routes we've already driven
Each of these starts with a crossing and ends with one. Take any of them as they are, or open it up in the builder and make it yours.
Three Countries, One Crossing
Belgium, Germany and France without a single airport: canal houses, forest roads, then the half-timbered waterways of Strasbourg before pointing the car back at Calais.
Dover – Calais
From£1544
Paris, Then the Coast
City first, sea after: the Left Bank on foot for three nights, then a slow drive west to a cottage above the cliffs, where the evenings are about oysters and the light.
Dover – Calais
From£1444
The Normandy Coast Road
Five nights on the Alabaster Coast: Étretat's arches, Honfleur's harbour and the cider farms inland, with the sea always on one side of the drive.
Newhaven – Dieppe
From£942
Parks and the Rhine
Built around two of Europe's best theme parks: Phantasialand half an hour from Cologne, then south to Freiburg for Europa-Park and quiet evenings back in the old town.
Dover – Calais
From£1668
Forest and Thermal Towns
The ridge road, waterfalls you can walk to, and long soaks in Baden-Baden. One guesthouse in the trees, one city hotel in Freiburg, and very little motorway.
Dover – Calais
From£1256
The Grand European Road Trip
Belgium, Germany and France in one loop: a canal city, the forest ridge road, the Alsace vineyards, then the Normandy cliffs before turning for home.
Dover – Calais
From£1838
The Family Adventure
Eight nights with the children: a canal city to start, a cabin on the lake with a theme park up the road, then two days of rides near Cologne before the drive home.
Dover – Calais
From£1956
Germany Discovery
The Rhine, the cathedral city, then Germany's sunniest corner. Cologne and Düsseldorf first, then one long drive south to Freiburg at the edge of the Black Forest.
Harwich – Hook of Holland
From£1471
Belgium City Escape
Waffles, chocolate, beer and three of Europe's best-preserved medieval centres, an hour apart. Bruges on foot, Ghent by tram, Antwerp for the fashion and the museum on the water.
Dover – Calais
From£1152
The Netherlands Explorer
Three Dutch cities in a week, close enough that no drive takes more than an hour. Museum mornings, wharf-cellars in the afternoon, then Rotterdam's harbour skyline to finish.
Harwich – Hook of Holland
From£1688
