We drove to Abbruzzo in august,my husband managed to do the trip in 18hours non stop! (ONLY SHORT BREAKS EVERY 2 HOURS). We have done this trip about 4 times. The michelin reccomended route seems to be the most straight forward but rather expensive on tolls. Got lost on way back because of major roadworks from basel onwards and ended up going via luxemberg and belgium, slightly longer but same fuel consumption AND NO TOLLS, still crossed the channel at calais. The cost of the ferry was £65 return. We are now thinking that next time we will try another route,as there are major road works at St gothard (building another tunnel) and likely to have long queues. Has anyone used the St bernard underpass?
