My mom flies in to Berlin in October and wants to rent a car and drive around Poland and Lithuania with me and visit the following cities. Which of the these routes would be best?
Drive from Berlin to Leszno (near Poznan) and stay 2 nights in Leszno..
- Drive 3 or 4 hours to Krakow -
Krakow for 3 nights, including an excursion to Auschwitz or Gross Rosen.
- Drive 3 or 6 hours to Lodz, or Biyalistok or Lomza - (Which is best?)
Overight in one of those 3 places (Whichever is best)
- Drive 3 hours to Kaunas -
Kaunas for 2 nights
- Drive 2 hours to Vilnius -
Vilnius for 2 nights
- Drive all the way back to Berlin via Warsaw and stay overnight in Warsaw on the way.
Or would it be better to park the car in Warsaw on the way to Lithuania? Then we could fly from Warsaw to Vilnius, stay in Vilnius for 2 nights, visit Kaunas by train or coach and stay 2 nights there, then train/coach back to Vilnius to fly back Warsaw and pick up the rental car and drive it back to Berlin. (I figure that would save quite a lot of driving time and prevent us from having to see all the same scenery again between Vilnius and Warsaw.)
Or do you also have a suggestion of your own to offer?
