It would seem then you would save a fortune on repeating countries have less ferry journies and also you would get the better climate while in the north and the cooler climate when down south sept/oct. Just a thought.
But then we'd miss Denmark, also we'll do just the south of France on the second leg of the journey, then Spain and Portugal.

Yep had not thought of it like that - hope you have a great journey Brad.

Thanks a lot for that Indu!

My pleasure. However, if seeing Denmark is your prime concern, I'd go up to Hirtshals and take the 4 hours crossing with Color Line from Hirtshals to Kristiansand, Norway. 2 pax plus bike is some 60-70 GBP, I think. Easy reservation, no need to sleep over, and a nice break in the driving. You could also do some tax free shopping on board (Norway is non-EU, remember).

Check out this site:

Have fun!

Hope you didn't get me wrong! I really appreciate every single input here, and have all these long threads on the HD! We'll try to avoid ferries when possible because they're usually quite steep!

Indu - Thanks again!

Will have a proper look on website...
