The United States is a paradise for road trips. From dramatic coastlines to historic highways, every route offers a different mood. Below are classic itineraries perfect for first-timers and return explorers.

🚗 Pacific Coast Highway / Highway 1

Drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles via Golden Gate Bridge, Big Sur cliffs, Carmel-by-the-Sea, Monterey, and Santa Barbara. Take 3–5 days: sunrise at 17-Mile Drive, coffee in Carmel, sunset at Pfeiffer Beach.

🛣️ Route 66

“The Mother Road” runs from Chicago to Los Angeles. Expect neon diners, vintage gas stations and desert towns. If you can’t do the full two weeks, try the New Mexico–Arizona–California segment for the classic vibe.

🌴 Miami → Key West (Overseas Highway)

Florida’s dreamiest sea-bridge drive. Cross 42 bridges over turquoise water. Plan 1–2 days: snorkel in Key Largo, watch sunset in Marathon, stay overnight in Key West and stroll Duval Street.

🍂 Blue Ridge Parkway

Winding along the Appalachians on the East Coast, it shines in fall foliage. Family-friendly overlooks and gentle trails make an easy 1–2 day cruise.

🏜️ Western National Parks Loop

From Las Vegas, link Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Bryce, Zion, Arches, Monument Valley and up to Yellowstone/Grand Teton. Plan 7–10 days for hikes, stargazing and surreal landscapes.
