TOUR INFORMATION

Embarking on Route 66 in the USA isn't just a road trip; it's a journey through history, culture, and the soul of America. As you drive through the heartland, you'll witness the fading neon signs of roadside diners and motels, reminiscent of a bygone era. Each mile tells a story of the American Dream, from the iconic landscapes of the Midwest to the spirited rhythm of the blues in the South. Route 66 is a tapestry of experiences – the quirky roadside attractions, the warmth of small-town hospitality, and the freedom of the open road. It's a voyage that captures the essence of Americana, leaving you with memories as timeless as the road itself.

Join us for our 17 night Express Tour of Historic Route 66. Designed for those that are time poor, and can’t get away for one of our 26 night tours. The Spring Tour travels from Las Vegas, Nevada, a short 2 hours from Route 66, all the way to Chicago, IL. We will join up with Route 66 in the Mojave Desert, California, and travel east through 8 Route 66 States to end the tour in Chicago, Illinois. Both the Summer and Fall Tours begin in the Windy City, Chicago, and travel west thru to the Mojave Desert, California, and end in Las Vegas.

TESTIMONIALS

"My son and I have just finished an amazing Route 66 tour with Dale and Jim. These blokes are outstanding, their knowledge and passion for the mother road is unbelievable. We were taken to many little out of the way places that I am sure even some of the locals don’t know about. Accommodation was really good, sometimes quirky, but that is all part of the journey. We were introduced to many interesting people along the way, who were all very passionate about keeping the road alive and well. The scenery as each mile rolled on takes your breath away. The tour was very well organised, Dale and Jim ensured at the end of each day that we were all set up with our rooms, and with most nights we all sat outside with a few drinks and talked about the days ride. This is our first tour withe Route 66 Tours and we certainly hope it won’t be the last, his attention to detail, such as ensuring I rode the right bike for both comfort and safety was in the end greatly appreciated. What can we say about Jim, only that he is an absolute legend. Thank you both for providing us with the trip of a lifetime, a huge tick off the bucket list, and to all those who are thinking about travelling the Mother road, 'do it now' and make sure you do it with Route 66 Tours, because believe me it does not get any better than with these blokes. We certainly got our kicks."
