Viaboo welcomes all adventure and travel enthusiasts who want to try exploring the world by car.
Here you'll find plenty of information, interesting road trips, and tips on how to best plan and organize your dream car journey.
There are many ways to discover new destinations, but the greatest advantage of exploring by car is independence. You get in and out whenever you want, travel at your own pace, and follow what truly interests you. You can admire the modernity of big metropolises or inhale the aroma of exotic bazaars. Set up camp near mountain trails and head out trekking or breathe in the space of the vast desert, which allows for reflection and tranquility.
Below we have prepared a list of top five destinations for all those seeking adventure and solitude for road trips.
A car fiesta through the picturesque Spain - an unforgettable journey across the Iberian Peninsula. Where to start your adventure? Perhaps in the bustling life of Madrid, then head south to the sunny Andalusia waiting for you. Along the way, you'll visit landmarks such as the Alhambra in Granada and Catalan modernism in Barcelona. You can follow your nose, or rather your taste buds because Spain is also a paradise for foodies. Galicia and Andalusia invite you for tapas, paella, and local wines.
The United States invites you on a journey through canyons, deserts, and glass metropolises. Such a vast and immensely interesting country is best explored by car. Distances are considerable, and the road trips much longer than what we are accustomed to in Europe. Traveling in the States by car will make it easier to reach places like national parks, remote mountains, and deserts. It's an adventure for at least two weeks, but one for a lifetime. Where to start? You can begin with the charming beaches of Florida, drive through the lively streets of Chicago, and end up on the sunny coast of California. The USA is a land of contrasts – from concrete jungles like Manhattan to the boundless, wild expanses of Montana.
Here a car journey quickly turns into a safari. Available roads cut through the world's oldest desert, the Namib. By exploring this country by car, we have a unique opportunity to admire the extraordinary, red expanses of African sands and observe truly wild nature. In Namibia, it's worth seeing the Fish River Canyon and the Sossusvlei dunes. Namib means "an area where there is nothing," but in reality, it's a place where roads meet the sky, which at night seems to be within reach.
New Zealand is simply made for exploring by car. It's full of scenic roads stretching along fjords, mountains, and green plains. These two islands inspired the director of "The Lord of the Rings". No wonder, as there are plenty of real treats for travelers and lovers of magnificent landscapes. One such natural phenomenon is the volcanic areas of Rotorua and the picturesque lakes on the South Island. On your road trip, it's worth including Hobbiton in Matamata, a must-visit for Tolkien fans. By exploring New Zealand by car, we can fully immerse ourselves in its space and discover thermal springs, glaciers, and the indigenous Maori culture, unique to other parts of the world.
France is not just Paris with the Eiffel Tower and romantic walks along the Seine. It is the quintessence of Europeanness, a country shaped by tumultuous history and rich culture. If you've already been to Paris and it's too stifling for you, if you want to see the real beauty of this country, you must organize a road trip. Only then, at a leisurely pace, can you travel through the stylish vineyards, fragrant Provence with lavender, to the dramatic scenery of the Alps. Who knows, it might be more atmospheric and romantic than Paris.
