- Days 1-2
  Munich and German Alpine Road
  Start your Alpine adventure in Munich. Pick up your car from the airport and head to the Old Town to visit BMW World. Visit Hofbräuhaus in the late afternoon when there are fewer tourists. On day two, take your Porsche onto the German Alpine Road toward Salzburg. If you want to see the Eagle's Nest, get there before 10 AM to beat the tour buses.
- Day 3
  Salzburg's UNESCO Heritage
  Discover Salzburg's baroque Old Town. Park at the Mönchsberg garage for easy access to the main sites. Wear shoes with good grip since the cobblestone streets can be slippery. Visit Mozart's birthplace in the morning before the cruise ship tourists arrive.
- Day 4
  Austrian Alps via Gerlos Alpine Road
  Drive the stunning Gerlos Alpine Road to Telfs. Use Sport mode on your Porsche for better control on the hairpin turns. Visit Krimml Waterfalls first thing since afternoon sun and waterfall spray can affect visibility. Plan for about 4 hours of driving without stops.
- Day 5
  Three-Country Alpine Circuit
  Get ready for an exciting day across Austria, Italy, and Switzerland. Start with photos at Lake Reschen's submerged bell tower. Skip the Fuorn Pass before 10 AM when it's often foggy. You'll need 5-6 hours for driving, so start early.
- Days 6-7
  Swiss Alps Exploration
  Spend two days based in Lucerne. Get to Chapel Bridge at sunrise for peaceful photos. Take time to drive through the Entlebuch Biosphere and around Lake Thun. One traveler shared: "The roads around Interlaken were surprisingly quiet before 9 AM – perfect for enjoying the Porsche's capabilities."
- Day 8
  Liechtenstein and Neuschwanstein
  Drive from Lucerne through Vaduz (park by the postal museum to see the castle) to Neuschwanstein Castle. Book your castle tour at least 2 days ahead and pick afternoon slots for shorter lines. Look for great castle photo spots on the approach road.
- Day 9
  Bavarian Alps Return
  Take the scenic way back to Munich via Lake Plansee. Visit Linderhof Palace early since parking fills up after 11 AM. Look for small turnouts near Sylvenstein Lake for excellent views. The drive takes 3-4 hours plus stops.
- Day 10
  Munich Departure
  Return your Porsche and spend your final morning in Munich. Plan extra time at the airport security if you're flying out. They often have additional questions for luxury car renters about their driving tour.

Jampacked activities and I really wished it had more free time. More days spent in Switzerland instead of Germany would have made it perfect. Accommodations are almost perfect except for first 2 nights when they did not lay out the trundle bed even through they knew there will be three people in the room and we had to verbally ask. They corrected it after we complained. The only reason I’m giving it a perfect score is because our travel director Faith was outstanding and went above and beyond our expectations! Our bus driver Attila was excellent too. One has to be physically fit for this tour but overall enjoyable. This tour kept us wanting to return to Swtzerland someday!
