Boarding the coach at Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof, the city recedes and a corridor of highways stitches you to seven countries in seven days. The rhythm of the trip is measured by roads and river bends: 530 km on day one to Prague, a 330 km transfer to Bratislava, then the Danube’s sweep into Budapest. Each city arrives like a new movement—Prague’s turrets and cobbled corridors, Budapest’s twin personalities split by the Danube, Vienna’s imperial facades, and then the abrupt alpine crescendo at Mount Titlis where a revolving gondola deposits you above a glacier.
