Two Weeks Tour in Austria
We planned this two weeks trip to Austria few weeks in advance due to the lack of sufficient rental cars in Austria since the Covid19. it was carefully planned to have a good time balance between major, rich culture and history cities and the nature Austria is well known for. We landed in Vienna, the capital and the largest city in Austria, but the starting point can also be in Salzburg, Austria or even in the nearby Munich, Germany.
Cruising from Barcelona to Copenhagen
For cruise lovers, as I’m, nothing tops a good 10 days cruise from the Mediterranean sea to the Baltic sea, visiting no less than 7 ports along the way: Barcelona, Spain; Cádiz, Spain: Lisbon, Portugal; Vigo Spain; Southampton, UK; Kiel, Germany and last but not least Copenhagen, Denmark.
Toledo, Spain
Here is my recommendation for a two days travel to beautiful Toledo, Spain. The best season to travel there is the Autumn or Spring since the weather is good and the city is till not too crowded with tourists. You can take a short train ride to Toledo, less than one hour, from the capital city, Madrid. Toledo is a historic city located in central Spain, approximately 70 kilometers southwest of Madrid. It is known for its well-preserved medieval architecture and rich cultural heritage, and has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Some of the highlights of Toledo include: The Cathedral of Toledo, a Gothic masterpiece that contains the tomb of the famous painter El Greco.

Travel to Northern Spain
Here is my suggestion for a two weeks travel to beautiful northern Spain. The best season to travel there is the Spring, while weather is good, car rental prices are reasonable and most places are still not too crowded with tourists. You can start your vacation in one of the international airports in the north part of Spain, or as I did, start from the capital city, Madrid. If you also plan to return to Madrid at the end, you should plan at least a day of driving in each direction.
