Data analyst, Randal Olson, has put together an itinerary that allows for the ultimate European road trip. Based on Business Insider’s “50 places in Europe you need to visit in your lifetime“, the 16,287 mile-long journey will take a few months and a bit of coin. Personally, I think this route is tops; it hits some of Europe’s most beautiful spots. From classic cities to gorgeous coastlines, here’s a full list of all the stops Olson included as well as a map of the entire trip.
