30 seconds in and already sooooo beautiful.
Cars + travel = excellent idea! Keep up this good work!
Brilliant video!! love the camera work, you guys got some great shots!
Thanks and love you bro. Please share more of such road trips. That is my long term, future goal to go on a long, peaceful, nature side trips to enjoy and admire.
Thanks. I will. I have plans to go for a trip every year for the next 10 years.
Absolute brilliant video definitely your best one of this year thus far well done 👌👌👌
Thank you and sorry for not responding sooner. 👋
Amazing episode! Great views accompanied by N55 soundtrack. What more could a man want? Thanks for sharing
That’s the stuff👍
Did these three passes in June honestly it is just pure driving joy. This video is immense great content 🙏🏽.
Definitely think Susten is the one for amazing views - with easy drive difficulty, grimsel goes up a notch for difficulty with great views from Hotel Restaurant Alpenrösli at the top and the furka pass if you keep going past the hotel the roads sometimes very narrow roads to test your nerves 😭😭 need to go back
Absolutely love the videos! I plan to do this next summer in my stage 2+ 140i and bring along some friends/family. These are the exact routes I plan to do. It would be interesting if you did a video on rough costs for this type of trip - I.e fuel, tolls, motorway passes, accommodation & food
Thank you. Once the series will end, I will make a video on routes, costs etc
Excellent😮
Thanks
Looked an amazing drive and fantastic scenery 👌 would love to do that in my little M135i 👍
I hope you’ve done it by now? Regards 👋
Marek, just found your fantastic channel!! Have already binge-Watched a number of your videos - several of the alpin pass ones, Nurburgring and Monaco..
I think I’m not a million miles away from you (I’m in Newcastle but know N. Yorks well). We have some fantastic roads in Northumberland and Cumbria, Scottish Borders.
I’ve been road tripping to Germany every couple of years (except last few years due to the pandemic) mainly to get to Frankfurt for the motor show which was every 2 years. It was only in 2015 when I drove on further (planned) to Stuttgart to go to the Porsche museum and do a factory tour. Went with a friend as my passenger. Bought my 981 Boxster GTS in Feb 2017 and did the trip again with my son later that year. Then in 2019 me and 5 friends in 4 Porsches did France (Arras), historic GP pits & grandstand at Reims, then stuttgart again then Nurburgring and Bruges. About 10 of us planned to do the trip this years again but over the last 12 months everyone had to drop out due to work or family commitments. However, I still went with a friend as my passenger. This time we drove all the way down through France to Avignon, then along the coast through Nice, Cannes and Monaco, to drive the F1 circuit. Like your video, we took a few wrong turns in the tunnels in Monaco but eventually sussed it out!! Oh, and like your visit, it was raining lightly.
We then headed back towards Cannes and turned onto the Route Napoleon, up through the gorges and canyons - stunning - we were staying in Grenoble that night and because we’d spent most of the day heading to and around Monaco, the 2nd part of that stretch was done on the dark - we reached Grenoble about 11pm! Next day we passed Geneva as we were heading to go up the Sustenpasse - OMG!! Why have I never driven further to any of the passes before! We only planned 1 pass this time so we’re going again to do more in future. We stayed in stuttgart 2 nights and went to Porsche museum 1 day, and Mercedes museum 2nd day.
We went to Bernkastel on the Mosel in Germany and used that as a base for 2 nights and went to Nurburgring, to the castle, indoor karting and finally did a lap, in the rain so took things easy!
I can’t wait to do another Alpine pass roadtrip. Hopefully 8 or so of us in 2025.
Your videos are so inspiring and cinematography and editing is incredible!!
Keep up the fantastic work, a new happy subscriber here!! David
Thank you David. I really appreciate you taking time to type all of that. I can see you’re a true petrol head like me. You are right, we’re not that far. I’ve been in north pennies a couple of times. I might be going your way soon as there’s someone with a nice little car I would love to film living over there. I love Alps and will definitely go back. Next year I’m going to the Arctic Circle in Norway 😅 4500 miles, will be fun 🤪
Great video
Thank you
It's a very different culture you would have never experienced till now, but trust me you will be taken care of and enjoy to the heartfelt new culture
Wish you all the success in your life ❤
Thanks
Brilliant videos, very informative and relaxed. I'm planning this trip in July this year, driving my M3 F80 with my son.
Hope you can add to it by a bit of a break down of cost, what to look out for etc.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks. That’s work in progress and should be out very soon. I hope you will have fantastic trip!
Top !
Świetnie się to ogląda 😍😍😍 tez planuje właśnie euro trip 😀tylko nie wiem jeszcze jakie kraje połączyć
Dziękuje. Życzę wspaniałej podróży.
Well done, looks like a blast. My background is Swiss, and may be going again in August. Would love to give these roads a go. I,m a Porsche guy , but that B mer does sound and look good.
Thanks Roy. I love Porsches. If only GTS 4.0 or GT4 was cheaper, I would definitely drive one. I hope you will have a great fun!
well done ... makes me almost miss my M2
Thanks. What you replaced it with?
I'm glad you drove our roads properly 😎
Next time you should plan a meet & greet with your Swiss subscribers 😉
I would love to!
❤❤😊😊
🙏
Love the Susten & Grimsel passes and this makes me want to go back! If I remember correctly, the east side of the Furka is pretty narrow and bumpy compared to the west side. For movie buffs, the Furka pass was used in Goldfinger and the Great St Bernard was in the opening sequence of The Italian Job.
Thanks. Didn’t know about the Italian Job
Hi from Scotland.
This road trip looks amazing, I would love to do it in my wee M. I would love to see a route map of your trip could you possibly send me a link to view it?
Would you have a link for the detailed trip,/pls?
You’re so lucky man! Oh Switzerland
Well I’m not sure how far you live but you can make that dream happen one day.
@@MDrives yes i live far away, Asia. I feeel like i am from switzerland 🇨🇭 thats how much i love. The green valleys the best government wow. I just wish i could visit somedays. Looking for more vlogs from you
I did the same route last summer, think the Susten pass is best driven from east to west. It provides the best views before reaching the top.
I never tried eastern side. Maybe next time 🙄
Great video coverage of what looks an epic trip ,i am looking to do something similar with a group of mates who enjoy spirited drives ,would you mind sharing your trip info please Marek if i message you in the future ? Keep the great work up 😃👍
Another great video! Do you have a stock exhaust here?
Also have you made a breakdown video for a European trip? I’d love to do it later this year!
Thanks. Yes, it was completely stock. I promise, it's coming very soon.
Nice video, Susten, Grimsel and Furka are my most travelled mountain roads in the summer.
I also liked how you kept your distance to the motorcycles when you were trying to chase them.
Just two points: 1. eighter turn down the music or turn up the volume of your voice. 2. PLEASE (and as a rider i cant stress this enough) please stay on your lane!
Thanks. I only go outside my lane when I can see what’s coming. Otherwise it’s a gamble and not worth it. 👍🏻
Id love to go back to switzerland, i went as a teenager and road the train, stayed in st moritz. Europe is so beautiful and i want to road trip in my golf r!
Do it. It’s not cheap but definitely worth it.
@@MDrivesoff to Germany over Christmas and New year's, but driving my friends old automatic ford focus 😂, one day next year I'll do it hopefully ...skydive in Interlaken and nurburgring are goals!
@@alexgerling3686 sounds awesome
7:08 very beautiful view 😊❤❤❤❤
I love that place!
I cycle the alps, couple years ago I stopped in that exact same spot and had a nice conversation with a motorcyclists who was doing a tour and enjoying the view too :) @@MDrives
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
👍🏻
Beautiful 👍I’m planning to do a similar Swiss alps road trip in December from uk to Switzerland, but wonder if the passes are open during winter season?
Unfortunately majority of them will be closed from October till June.
@@MDrives thank you for the update
@@jhaazkahn9852 Not a problem.
Lauterbrunnen to Susten Pass driving vuew look spectacular. Which route did u take? Lake Brienz on your left or right side? Thanks
We took road no. 8
17:03 very nice 😏
I was searching for the detailed video about your trip ,,,,could not find it would you have a link for this video pls ?thank you in advance and congratulations for your works
Hi and thank you. This video wasn’t released yet. I have two more parts from the trip to be released before the summary video will come out. So probably 4-6 weeks
Great video. What month did you do this drive and I assume you drove during a week day due to congestion or was it a weekend drive?
Thanks. I believe this was Sunday but it was in June so before holiday season.
@@MDrives I am thinking of September after the school season begins. I was concerned that weekends would be busy.
@@francis191 definitely busier. I think the timing is most important. Hit the roads at 6-7am and you’re almost on your own. I did Alps in September and I haven’t experienced too many cars.
@mdrives at Whats hotel did you spend the nicht in lauterbrunnen ? Your video's inspirered do plan a roadtrip :-)
Great to hear it inspires people to go there. It’s really worth it. Have you seen the whole series? I stayed in Hornerpub which was pretty basic but ok for a night.
Hi mate, I have a quick question, what's the brand of your drone and the model ?
Hi. This was filmed on DJI mini 3 pro
Awesome video. Do you have a route you could share with us. ? ❤
Will do Jake. Another video will come out this weekend. Two more and then I will have a separate video where I will go through the whole trip in detail: maps, hotels, prices etc…
@@MDrives legend mate ❤️
@@MDrives did they video come in the end?
@@STRampo500 I’m struggling with finding a time to finish it. Hopefully this Friday
Great video, I love that area. Only one critique, if you could balance your audio a bit better by adding some key frames to lower the music and increase the voice over. Your voice gets lost with it being so low and the music so loud.
Thanks for the good advice. Regards

Great quote!
how come ur car steering wheel is on the right ?
I live in 🇬🇧
May be, you can plan one India trip so you can explore beautiful dawn to dusk, rich culture to traditional. I will host you with no burden on expenses on you at all
Maybe one day. Thank you for your kind offer 🙏
Brother 😊 what is meaning "passes"
Creative language 😂
@@MDrives oh ok😁
IMO it would've been nicer if we had no or less music so we could hear that engine sing! The music is a bit too loud
Hi. Thank you for your comment. There are videos on my channel from each of the passes which are uncut drive videos without music. Regards 👋
Brother. what is your language 🙄🙄 I don't feel like English 😊 is it Switzerland language 🙄🙄
It’s whatever I managed to learn 😅😉
Supprimer coucher supprimer
Thanks 🙏
Miles someone will think u travel on a boat haha😂😂😂
Hehe
