GETTING AROUND EUROPE
Driving in Europe
Travelling around in Europe can cause a great deal of trepidation in many travellers. Whilst Europe is renowned for its fast and reliable trains, we chose to drive ourselves.
Our car was booked using the Peugeot Leasing scheme. The daily rental rate reduces the longer you lease the car, and our Peugeot 407 diesel station wagon cost around $70 per day for 44 days.
General driving tips
“Autogrille” restaurants which are situated along the autobahns/autostrades offer an excellent choice of food.
European road signs
Driving in smaller towns can sometimes provide for an interesting experience, too!
In cities, use public transport or walk to save the hassle and cost of inner-city parking. Public transport in most European cities is clean, convenient, efficient and cheap.
Child Restraints
Check in advance with your car hire/lease company to make sure these are available for hire (an additional fee will apply).
Maps
Tolls/vignettes
Road signs
Many signs showing distances to towns, cities, or popular tourist attractions, are in the local language as well as English.
International Driving Permit
If you are planning on driving whist in Europe, you will need to obtain an International Driving Permit prior to your departure from Australia.
Happy travels!
