TOUR INFORMATION
ROUTE 66 PLUS TOUR. This 26 night adventure begins in the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas, NV. From Vegas we head 2 hours south into California to intersect Historic Route 66 in the Mojave Desert. We then head east across the diversity of the 8 states that call old 66 "The Main Street of America". The all Australian, award winning guide team, will look after you every mile of the way as we enjoy the twists and turns of the Mother Road. One of the early highlights as we head east, is the magnificent South Rim of the Grand Canyon, with the expansive views down to the mighty Colorado River. Not to be out done, historic Route 66 holds up against such natural wonders. Although Route 66 had its glory day’s back in the 1950’s the old road is still capturing the hearts and minds of travellers today. With decades of road trip experience in the USA, Route 66 Tours are here to take you on a journey down memory lane. Said to be the “Longest Tourist Attraction in the USA", Route 66 is a road that will transport you back in time to a period when America was booming, and its people were hitting the road to discover this amazing country. See, and experience, this amazing road trip for yourself, stay in the classic hotels, and motels, eat in the old diners, and cafes, meet the people that lived Route 66 when it was the Main Street of America. A journey across the USA filled with nostalgia and stunning diverse landscapes. Come, see for yourself, this is not the America you see on the TV, this is the real America, and you will fall in love with her, just like so many before you. Once Route 66 gets us into Chicago, we will have time to enjoy a wonderful day of sightseeing in one of the premier cities in the USA. This is the PLUS part of this amazing tour, "America The Beautiful". From Chicago we turn back west, and cross the mighty plains of mid-America, visiting such towns that will bring the wild west alive. The famous Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway, chartered in 1859, helped open up the wild west, and we will enjoy the towns that make up its name, as we journey west towards the epic Colorado Mountains. The stunning vistas continue as we traverse the magnificent Rocky’s. Highlights include Pikes Peak, The Million Dollar Highway, and the old west town of Durango, CO. From here things get even more picturesque as we enter the Grand Circle of the South-West. Monument Valley, Four Corners, Horseshoe Bend, Vermillion Cliffs, and the awe inspiring, but little visited, North Rim of the Grand Canyon are all included as we return to Las Vegas. This is a tour designed for fun, we don’t simply throw you on a bike, or in a car, and head off on the road trip. We give you the time required to slow down and enjoy The Mother Road. Our tour averages only 177 miles per day while on old 66, and only 277 miles per day as we head west back to Las Vegas. Every day is full and are action packed. We have years of experience and your road trip of a lifetime is in very good hands. Remember, unlike some others, we "Fully Guide" you on your dream vacation.
