    Euro RoadTrip 08'

    Hi all,

    Going on a Eurotrip Feb 1st -4th with a few mates and was wondering if anyone could pick some holes in the road trip we have planned. We've hired a Merc E200 so should at least be comfy!

    Day 1 - Frankfurt
    Arrive in Frankfurt @ 11.30
    Spend 4-5 hrs in Frankfurt
    Leave Frankfurt for Munich @ 4-5pm -> (4 Hrs)
    Spend the night in Munich

    Day 2 - Munich/Milan
    Leave Munich for Milan @ 9-10am -> (6Hrs)
    Arrive in Milan @ 4-5pm
    Spend the night in Milan, check out nightlife

    Day 3 - Milan/Zurich
    Leave Milan @ 12-2pm for Zurich -> (4Hrs)
    Arrive in Zurich @ 4-5pm
    Spend the night in Zurich

    Day 4 - Zurich/Frankfurt
    Leave Zurich for Frankfurt @ 9-10 -> (4.5Hrs)
    get to Frankfurt at 4pm the latest and give car back
    Relax in the city/airport until flight at about 9pm

    All the timings are from TomTom and google maps but i am very sceptical about the journey times!!!! My fellow road trippers seem happy enough but i think 6 hours for a trip over the Alps is a little bit low. Has anyone got any actual experience of the actual times?

    Second question...i was wondering if anyone could recommend somewhere really cheap to stay on each of the nights. That's Munich, Milan and Zurich!

    I was just looking on Hostel Bookers. Seems a good place to start.

    UK YHA membership is valid through europe as well. Well worth getting YHA membership if you ask me.
