THE GREAT SCHENGEN CHALLENGE: Can I make Europes longest public transport journey in 200 hours?

From the High Arctic, Mrs Turtle and I have a 200 hour deadline to make the longest possible journey entirely in the Schengen Zone - over 5,500km as the crow flies - using only trains, buses and boats.

Join us for Part 1 of an incredible adventure across the continent, dodging landslides, strikes and storms. While also indulging in the occasional moving hot tub.

Part 2 coming on 11 November 2025!
