Please do take a week or 2 in your calendar, because the trip – o.a. along Amsterdam and the Keukenhof leads – is exactly 26.211 km long.

Imagine: you’re only 1 once in your life, in Europe (or you have a bucket list to finish) and you want to necessarily have the most from your trip pick up and as much as possible, highlights enjoy. What do you along the route of the American scientist Randy Olson (not the father of the Olson twins, but the man who took the fun out of the game of where’s Waldo sucks).

A little advance warning: the route is quite Amerikacentrisch, because it is made on the basis of a list from Business Insider. In some ways it is the skinny, for example, the only Swiss location that’s in there is Interlaken, but you must somewhere draw a line, of course. Beautiful cities like Granada, Vienna, Budapest and Krakow should not be missed.

Below is a list of locations, how much of it do you have in your life already visited? And, also quite relevant: what car would you get this road trip (bigger picture HERE, interactive map there) to do? I would personally be in a 120d with xDrive want to do: enough place for 2 persons, also in the snow grip, smooth enough, and still nice and economical too.
