Join us as we embark on a race against time to drive 2,400km across Europe in just 6 days. Starting in Bosnia & Herzegovina, we push ourselves to keep frantically driving as borders across the continent begin to close down and countries go into lockdown as the coronavirus spreads.
04m20s – The journey begins
13m31s – Driving the Austrian Alps
14m36s – Trouble at the German border
20m30s – Things are getting tense…
27m56s – Disaster Strikes!
We drive our van across Croatia, Slovenia, Austria and Germany in just a few days, facing van troubles, hassle from border police and with country borders closing right behind us with just hours to spare. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic begin to hit home as we arrive in Luxembourg to find empty supermarket shelves and deserted streets.
We make it to France after several long days on the road, only to break down two hours from the ferry port. With ferries being cancelled by the hour and our chances of returning to the UK before France goes in to full lockdown dwindling, will we make it home and escape the lockdown?
