Your SAS DC-8 jet sets you down in
Europe and you’ll be ready for the great-
est thrill of your life . . . Just imagine
streaking down the German autobahn
(super highway with no speed limit!)
on your way to a thousand adventures.
You’ll see the famous Black Forest, his-
toric castles on the mighty Rhine river.
You’ll be in Austria in a matter of
hours, or Switzerland where serpentine
mountain roads take you over snow-
capped peaks affording breath-taking
views of the Europe that you have
always heard about, seen in pictures! All
this and much more is in store for you
for seventeen fun-filled days, days that
you will never forget!
Perhaps your choice lies in another
direction, Italy and the sunny, sandy
beaches on the Mediterranean, Southern
France or balmy Spain. Maybe you want
to visit Rome, ride down to Naples, visit
the art galleries in Florence or explore
the thousands of ancient Roman treas-
ures now uncovered after centuries in
Rome, Brescia, etc.
Then again maybe you’ve got a yen to
sit at sidewalk cafes in Paris, visit the
Eifel Tower, go strolling in the quaint
old streets of Montparnasse, shop on
the elegant Champs Elysees or go “night
clubbing” at the famous Lido and Folies
Bergere . . . Whatever your tastes, be it
a fast tour around one of Europe’s fast
racing circuits such as Monza in Italy,
Nurburgring in Germany — or a visit
to Westminster Abbey in London, Notre
Dame in Paris or St. Stephans in Vienna,
it’s all yours for 9.00 for up to 17 days.
A decided advantage in making the trip
by motorcycle or motor-scooter is the
fact that this convenient and inexpensive
means of transportation permits you to
make overnight reservations in smaller
and considerably less expensive hotels
and quaint inns outside the limits of the
larger cities that you’ll want to visit.
With your motorcycle or scooter you’re
not bound to keep any schedule dictated
by railroads or busses, you travel where
you want, when you want, for as long as
you want, stopping wherever you like
it best.. .
Here’s your big chance to visit motor-
cycle factories, get a peek into racing
departments...visit Europe’s auto plants,
see museums, art galleries, listen to con-
certs, climb mountains...a 17-day action-
packed vacation at a bargain price that’s
only a few hours away from New York
City. Are you going to join the lucky
group of Europe-bound thrill-seekers in
1962?
