One of the best ways to experience Europe is by buckling up and getting behind the wheel. From fairytale cities and vineyard-dotted hills to dramatic coastlines and mountain passes, our collection of European road trips captures the continent at its best. Combining breathtaking scenery with plenty of culture and history, our itineraries make planning a road trip across Europe simple and stress-free.
With so many possibilities, planning a road trip across Europe can feel overwhelming, but that’s where our expert itineraries come in.
From mountains to coastlines, vineyards to medieval streets, Europe is full of roads just waiting to be explored. A drive through Tuscany means rolling hills dotted with cypress trees, vineyards, and pretty villages where life moves at a slower pace. In Croatia, the coast sparkles with turquoise waters, hidden coves, and old stone towns clinging to the cliffs. The South of France offers fragrant lavender fields, rustic villages, and stunning stretches of coastline. A route through Central Europe takes you past snow-capped alpine peaks, patchwork farmland, and historic cities. Wherever you end up, Europe’s roads promise a mix of scenery, culture, and hidden gems around every bend.
Wherever you choose, Europe’s well-connected roads make multi-centre trips straightforward and rewarding. Whether you’re looking for inspiration to plan a road trip in Europe or want a ready-made Europe road trip plan, we’ve got you covered.
Europe is full of incredible routes, but some stand out for their scenery and culture. Driving through Portugal’s Algarve offers golden beaches and charming fishing villages, while a road trip through Spain’s Andalusia combines Moorish architecture and whitewashed towns. In Italy you have it all, with classic drives linking historic cities, famous lakes, rolling countryside and dramatic coastlines.
Planning a road trip across Europe starts with choosing your route and deciding how much time you have. Think about the countries and highlights you want to include, such as exploring Budapest’s historic streets, Italy’s sun-soaked coastal drives, or Greece’s scenic islands and ancient ruins. Our team will make creating your perfect Europe road trip plan simple, but search our itineraries for inspiration.

eShores have organised three holidays for us and we have just booked our fourth. I have found them to be efficient and helpful. When we had health issues when abroad they were very helpful, and when there was a mishap with a booking, they were proactive and transparent, and provided a fair resolution.
Fantastic service, its the second time booking with Michelle, she has been brilliant, if this next holiday lives up to the last one, it will be fabulous.
Excellent service, competitive prices, nothing to much trouble sorting out any extras required, the agent I dealt with, Kadie, was extremely helpful, professional & polite.

A wonderful company to do business with. No question or request is too much trouble. The holidays created are top notch. Support whilst away is excellent. Would highly recommend.

Approachable and professional

Asked for a specific itinerary for Sicily - Emma came up with one, plus all transfer options; we then did some changes and she put together exactly the holiday we wanted! Very easy and pleasant to talk to; very professional.

Book every time with Dave at eshores always excellent service, wouldn't go anywhere else
We haven't had the holiday yet but the booking process was excellent. Looking to see several of the smaller islands of Greece the suggested itinerary met our requirements exactly. Each location had an option of three different hotels but our in depth research of each island just confirmed that the suggested one was the best.…
Used Eshores earlier this year for a trip to Venice and Florence. Excellent holiday. All arrangements by Eshores were brilliant. Have recently booked another holiday with them. Again, easy to deal with. They take care to ensure everything arranged to your wishes.
Claire at eShores was friendly, professional and creative in setting up a multi-centre holiday over Christmas and New Year, including all international and inter-Caribbean flights. Nothing was too much trouble and our whims and wishes were all taken into account. Ongoing support is excellent. We cannot recommend eShores highly enough.
Good communication, prompt service, love the way the quote is laid out all details are included also with the option of upgrading your hotel. So far so good.
Very friends staff always available to answer my questions re availability and costs . Willing to research my requests and advise possibilities .
We have now used eShores probably 6 times and every time they have been so informative and helpful, thoroughly recommend
