Suggestions for scenic drive
 

I am looking to drive from Amsterdam to Venice over a 5 day period. I have never been to Europe and I am looking for the most scenic and fun route. Will be stopping in 5 different places along the way. Please recommend the most amazing places...

Try viamichelin.fr or viamichelin.com, select itineraires and enter Amsterdam to Venice. In the panel below, select "scenic" or "decouverte" for the most scenic route.

What month?

Are you prepared to pay a 500E drop charge--it may be that.

Thank you for the website, I will check it out. We will arrive in Rotterdam on July 21 and will need to be in Venice on July 26. I realize there is a big expense for the international car rental drop and was wondering if there is any way around that??

Sure, forget the car except in one country.
Train to Munich---get a car for 3 days to explore the castle country and Salzburg area--return the car in Germany and train to Venice.
Or, same thing except using Zurich and the Swiss Alps as your destination. You get the idea.

Thank you.
