Hi everyone.

Hoping some veterans in here can help a newbie out. Myself and two friends are planning a rather spontaneous, first ever Euro road trip, aiming for the first weekend of December. I was hoping someone in here might have an idea for a good itinerary we can follow that suits our cars/amount of time we have.

For context, we have booked the Eurotunnel for 8am on Friday and 10:30pm return on Sunday. We will be taking two Mini JCWs and a Civic Type R. All our cars are on PS4s which may complicate things for some mountain passes at this time of year so we may be best to avoid them?

What would you do given the cars we have and the time we have?

Thanks in advance!

Correct, from the research I've done, to go in certain areas/passes I will need winters. So yes, my route will either need to be south of France or through cities. But of course, I could be wrong here.

Thank you for all the brilliant suggestions. I will be putting everything together this weekend and figuring out a viable route which I will put in here!

Eurotunnel has been booked already else I'd highly consider Ireland! A mate has also made it a requirement we visit Geneva as he has some family there so will need to incorporate somehow.
