Road trip in Italy

You can either use your own car or fly down and rent a car at the airport. Public transport in Italy works well between the major cities, but if you want something other than a pure city break, we recommend a road trip in Italy.

Have a pleasant road trip to Tuscany, Italy

• Prepare both yourself and the children for a long journey. See it as an opportunity to spend some pleasant hours together with good conversations. There is often no time for this in a busy everyday life.
• Vote on what you want to do and discuss the drive. How often do we stop? When do we eat? How many movies can the children watch?
• Plan some games you can play in the car. Perhaps a quiz about Italy. Listen to Italian music.
• Hold back on sweets and choose carrots, apples, crispbread instead – food that takes time to eat.
• Are you tempted by a road trip to Italy, but the distance seems insurmountable?
• Either fly down and rent a car at the airport or put the car on the car train.

If you put your car on the car train, you combine the practical with the pleasant. You can put the car on the car train in Hamburg, Hildesheim, or Berlin.

Then you can relax through vast Germany and arrive refreshed at your holiday home in Italy.
