We travelled overland on trains and buses from London to Istanbul in just 7 days. This is the first leg of our overland trip from London to Tbilisi, Georgia. Our journey included enjoying the beer halls of Munich, exploring the gorgeous streets of Salzburg, riding the giant Ferris wheel in Vienna, relaxing in the baths of Budapest, admiring the churches of Belgrade, having a traditional meal in Sofia, and taking the Sofia express overnight train to Istanbul.
