Here you will find Road Trip Ideas from our personal experience since 2006.
Because we travel independently, we always have the opportunity to wander off the main highways and tourist routes to visit uncrowded and unusual locations. These often include World Heritage and other historical sites; interesting art and architecture; and diverse landscapes – in South America, Europe & beyond.
Every day is a road trip!
Our Goal: to encourage you to experience overland travel for yourselves. Dare2go has routes, sites and destinations to help you create the perfect road trip for your next vacation.
Road Trip Ideas
A road trip gives you the freedom to stop wherever you like – for a photo, an unplanned hike, or to explore places not always mentioned in guidebooks.
We share our best road trips with you in easy-to-follow posts.
Please make use of our road trip inspirations, either in your own vehicle, or with a rental car.

Wikipedia has a nice definition:
“Overlanding is self-reliant overland travel to remote destinations where the journey is the principal goal.”
Some of our articles offer overlanders helpful information gathered from our experience; while others feature the journeys of fellow overland travellers.

Often such little treasures make the best memories.

Enticed by a Sculpture Park in Uruguay
Another surprise find in the countryside of Uruguay – a sculpture park which gave us a pleasant walk in the sunshine. Thanks to the artist Pablo Atchugarry.
World Heritage Sites
These sites are designated as having outstanding universal value.
We use the UNESCO World Heritage Sites website, alongside guidebooks, when deciding what to see.
Because we can’t visit all of them, we try to choose unique or unusual sites.
Go and See Segovia and its World Heritage Attractions
See the Aqueduct, Alcazar and Gothic Cathedral in World Heritage Segovia, but don’t miss the churches, palaces and other attractions of the Old Town.
