The ultimate American road trip

Start your adventure in the Windy City, where deep-dish pizza and live blues set the tone for the journey ahead. Take in skyline views from the 360 Chicago Observation Deck, then stroll the Magnificent Mile or stop by Millennium Park for a photo under Cloud Gate (the famous Bean). Chicago blends bold food, legendary music, and genuine midwestern energy; it’s the perfect launchpad before you hit the open highway west.
-
Further along the road, Santa Fe offers a complete change of pace. The drive in is worth slowing down for with red rock landscapes, desert skies, and an atmosphere that feels a world away from the bustle of the Midwest. The city blends rich history with creativity, from art galleries and local markets to family-run spots serving green chilli enchiladas and smoky barbecue.

Reaching California feels like a reward in itself. After passing through the desert towns and classic roadside stops, the Pacific appears on the horizon, and suddenly you’re rolling into Santa Monica, the endpoint of Route 66. There’s time to explore Rodeo Drive and Beverly Hills on a private walking tour, enjoy some of the best shopping and dining in LA, and finish with a stroll along the Santa Monica Pier.

Along the way, your stays are just as memorable as the miles. From the relaxed La Quinta Inn & Suites in Springfield, Illinois, to the stylish Pennywell St. Louis Downtown, the retro charm of The Big Texan Motel in Amarillo, and the warm welcome at the DoubleTree by Hilton Santa Fe, each stop reflects the local character of the region.
