Rides of a Lifetime: Historic Route 66

Route 66 gained one of its nicknames, “the Main Street of America,” because it cut through the center of countless small towns along its serpentine, 2,400-mile length. The restored version takes you through many of the same beloved places, where you’ll find historic stops, neon-adorned motels and roadside burger joints just as they were in the 1950s; it’s as if time has stood still on many sections of Route 66. Along the way, you’ll discover that it’s also the people who bring the magic to your trip, for it’s in their stories and the stories you share that you’ll find the true soul of Route 66. Although many parts of the original route have changed, the spirit of this great road is still alive and kickin’. So, pack your camera and a sense of adventure. You truly are about to take a Ride of a Lifetime: a journey through the heart and soul of America. All the best Route 66 attractions are here: Bunyan's Statue; Cozy Dog Drive-In; Big Blue Whale of Catoosa; Arcadia Round Barn; Route 66 Museum; Phillips 66 Restored Gas Station; Cadillac Ranch; Wigwam Motel; and so much more. 2016
