16 days from Chicago to Los Angeles
Get your kicks on Route 66 with a legendary trip across America. This historic route, which was called the “Main Street of America” for more than 50 years before the advent of the US Interstate system, begins in Chicago, travels through eight states, and ends in Los Angeles. On this trip down memory lane, you’ll travel to the major cities along Route 66, visit Route 66 museums, and step back in time to when the journey was part of the fun! Visit Pontiac’s Route 66 Hall of Fame & Museum, which features memorabilia from the heyday of Route 66. In Springfield, visit the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, and in St. Louis, witness amazing views of the city and the Mississippi River from the top of the 630-foot-tall Gateway Arch. In Elk City, Oklahoma, stop at the National Route 66 Museum where antique cars and historic documents help you feel what it was like to travel Route 66. See more classic cars and memorabilia at Russell’s Car Museum in New Mexico. Overnight in Williams Arizona—listed in the National Register for Historic Places and where you’ll see neon signs of the intact circa 1940s “Motel Row.” Then deviate from Route 66 to see the breathtaking scenery at the Grand Canyon and the bright lights and excitement of Las Vegas. Before arriving at the end of Route 66 in Santa Monica, California, visit the California Route 66 Museum in Victorville, which displays memories in such settings as a 50’s diner, VW Love Bus and the 1917 Model T Ford.
