How to get more out of your Route 66 adventure.

As you travel the most legendary byway in America, you will enjoy it more if you take your time. Generations have passed this way and so much of their history remains. Pick a quiet stretch. Pull over and listen to the pavement sing the bittersweet songs of the Mother Road. Browse through a tiny hamlet that was once a horn-honking tourist mecca. Savor the soul of an America that is growing harder and harder to find each year.

This guide can help you discover and enjoy these moments. It can make the difference between an ordinary experience or one you will never forget. It can show you how to sample the diversified cultures the road passes through on its way between Chicago and Santa Monica. It can also save you money.

The guide is purely a labor of love prepared by our Adopt-A-Hundred members for the single purpose of making your trip enjoyable along their adopted sections. No establishment has paid a cent to be selected. Please keep in mind however, that the road is an ever-changing mosaic, as are prices, menus, amenities and owners. If you had an unpleasant experience or even a pleasant one, we ask that you let us know.

We at the Federation have dedicated ourselves to the preservation of Route 66 so that you and future generations, can continue to enjoy the adventure.
