How to Have the Best Family Road Trip

A road trip is the classic American family vacation. Pack up the kids (and sometimes the dog) for one of these road trip ideas: a tour of United States National Parks from Yellowstone to the Grand Canyon to the Great Smoky Mountains; an epic California road trip from Big Sur through San Diego and Los Angeles north to San Francisco; a history-packed getaway from New England to Washington D.C.; a classic road trip along Route 66 from Chicago to Arizona, the Blue Ridge Parkway from North Carolina to Virginia or the Pacific Coast Highway in California; an outdoorsy road trip through Florida state parks for a biking, hiking and fishing adventure, or a New England fall colors road trip from Portland, Maine, to New York City.

How Does Your Family Road Trip?

Road tripping for your family might mean stopping at every small town and quirky kid-friendly roadside attraction with plenty of stops for ice cream and those oh-so-yummy gas station snacks. Or, it might mean powering through to the ultimate road trip destination (especially when the goal is Disneyland or bust).

What Are Your Family Road Vacation Goals?

Whether your road trip goal is an urban adventure in Miami, a glamorous getaway to Nevada, a soothing stop in Santa Fe or a ski trip to Colorado, check out our road trip planner. It will help you choose the right route, bring the right snacks, pack the right family road trip games, prep the car, and belt out classic road trip songs.
