to europe offers self-drive auto tours at affordable rates

Gemut.com has always advocated independent European travel, both by car and rail. Few travel experiences are as liberating as exploring the backroads of Europe, far from city crowds. You move on your timetable, not someone else's. Many travelers, however, want a bit more certainty. They prefer to know in advance what sights and towns they will visit and where they will lay their heads each night. They love the flexibility of auto travel but are more comfortable putting decsion-making about where to stay and what to see in the hands of experts. Over the years we've seen a number of self-drive European vacation sellers come and go. They fail because of their reliance on expensive hotels and unimaginative itineraries.

Then we met Thomas Giesick, founder and owner of Germany-based to europe. A 20-year background in European tourism and an intimate knowledge of the region has led to the success of his small, family-owned company, founded in 2001. In our view, Mr. Giesick has assembled all the right elements and put them in affordable packages that retain just the right amount of independence. We think you'll like the prices for such itineraries as these:

9-Day Romantic Road, Bavaria & Salzburg

8-Day Bavaria Self-Drive

7-day Romantic Road Self-Drive

8-day 1st-class Romantic & Castle Road
