Take One of the Most Beautiful Drives in Europe Down the River Rhine
In my opinion, this is one most beautiful drives you can take in Europe. This drive from Koblenz to Mainz runs parallel to the River Rhine. Throughout the day, you will have stops at some truly stunning locations that are within a stone's throw of the River.
You will do well to beat this drive anyway in Europe.
