Hi R,

I looked up the "recommended" route from Dieppe to Sofia at www.viamichelin.com.

They state a road tax of 47.7 E.

France and Germany don't have "road tax" stickers.

You will have to buy a vignette for Austria (about 10E) if you drive on the main highways.

You will also need an International Driver's Permit in Austria.
http://www.aaasouth.com/home.asp in the US.

I don't know about the charges in the Balkans.

Hi,
I do a route plan from Uk to BG going through Romania. I have given out over 400 copies and am on ver 8 at the moment. I have driven up and down 23 times in the last 4 years, so know the route very well.

I am well known on Bulgaria forums and on the internet as my name here. You can google me or contact me here and I'll send you a copy.

Best wishes,

ATB

If you still need any answers Muzzy, then you could check out the discussion board at...

www.bulgariaski.com

and the forum at

www.skidvd.co.uk

There are several regular posters who drive from the UK to Bulgaria, who can tell you the best routes and which countries to avoid.

There's some more info here...

Good luck.
