SPRING ROUTE 66 100th Anniversary TOUR

TOUR INFORMATION

ROUTE 66 PLUS 100th Anniversary TOUR. Join us to celebrat the 100th Anniversary of this historic road, The Mother Road. This 28 night adventure begins in the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas, NV. From Vegas we will experience the "PLUS" part of the tour, "America The Beautiful", as we head to the stunning Grand Canyon North Rim. With a lot less visitors than the South Rim, and a higher elevation, the North Rim will not disappoint as you look out across the Colorado River to the Painted Desert. As the tour progresses, the vistas continue, as we approach the magnificent Rocky Mountains. Highlights include Four Corners Monument, Horseshoe Bend, Vermillion Cliffs and Monument Valley. Then we cross the Rocky’s and enjoy The Million Dollar Highway, the old west town of Durango, CO, and views forever from atop Pikes Peak. From here things get historical as we cross the great plains following the old Santa Fe Trail from the 1820’s, visiting Dodge City, Topeka, and so much more on our way to Chicago, and Route 66, to celebrate this milestone.

From Chicago, the biginning of the route, we return west, enjoying the diversity of the 8 states that call old 66 "The Main Street of America". 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. To celebtate Route 66 turning "One Hundred" we are adding to bonus days to each tour in 2026. This is a year not to miss, and all up and down the road planning is coming together to add flavour to an already tasty road trip experience.
