Jun 2, 2017 at 18:39 comment added QuantumBrick @Laim Are you sure? As far as I know Brexit doesn't touch Schengen laws, that is, citizens of the UK will still have the same visa requirements as, e.g Switzerland and Norway - that is, no requirements.
Jun 2, 2017 at 15:16 comment added user2766 Of course Brexit will change this (whenever that happens). There is a fair chance visa free access will be limited to UK citizens (and vice versa)
Jun 2, 2017 at 13:25 comment added QuantumBrick That totally depends on what you're looking for. Busses in Eastern Europe are so extremely cheap (I went from Prague to Warsaw for one euro in a PolskiBus Christmas offer) that it might be a very good idea to take busses when you're crossing territory that offers nothing (like the Hungarian planes or a significant portion of Romania or continental Croatia). I really prefer to take busses around the Balkans, especially in countries like Montenegro and Bosnia are almost completely composed of mountains, and if you want to see them busses are the best (and cheapest) option.
Jun 2, 2017 at 11:25 comment added Featherball Would it be a good idea to get buses/trains to speed up the journey? They're cheaper than planes @QuantumBrick

Jun 1, 2017 at 9:42 comment added QuantumBrick I strongly support the premise above. Although Turkey is definitely not in the mud as Ukraine and that you wouldn't pass through the open war regions in the south, the situation there is bad enough to justify avoiding the place altogether
Jun 1, 2017 at 8:30 comment added imsodin In the current state of affairs in Russia and Turkey, I would advice to take a ferry over the black sea. A friend of mine is cycling from Switzerland to Kirgistan and intends to follow the Danube, then cross to Georgia by ship for safety reasons.
