Drive from germany to greece
There`s a couple of ways you can drive here from the UK, it all depends on how quick you want to get here and which countries you`d prefer to drive though. The drive can be done in 2-3 days. We took 5 days when we made the trip here, but we made it into a mini holiday and and stayed a couple of days in Switzerland. We took the route through France down to Italy and caught the overnight ferry from Ancona to Igoumenitsa, then drove across and down to Halkidiki. You can take another route which avoids the cost of the overnight ferry and is actually quicker. This route takes you across France, Germany, Austria and then down through Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia. It`s about 1625 miles and you can do it in 2-3 days. Alot of people are a bit unsure of driving through countries like Serbia, but from the people I`ve talked to here who regulaly make the trip, there`s never any problems. Infact, we will be taking this route at the end of this month as we`re driving to Germany, up near the Danish border. I don`t know when you`re planning on coming to Greece but if it`s after this, I will be able to give you more info on driving through Serbia. They`re very cheap, basic but clean. Also, plan your route to make sure you get to Ancona well ahead of the departure time of the ferry as the port can be a bit of a nightmare. Insurance wise, if you take the France/Italy route, you`ll be ok with normal european cover but if you take the Serbia route, check with your insurer about a green card for those countries. Once in Greece, the main highways are very good and well sign posted. You didn`t say where in Greece you`re heading but if you are heading here to Halkidiki you`ll have no problems finding your way. I hope this helps, and if you decide to make the drive I`m sure you`ll find it as an amazing drive as we did.
