Iconic road trips in USA have featured in many films and books – think Rain Man, Thelma & Louise and Little Miss Sunshine. From the most famous of all, the historic Route 66 that once stretched from Chicago to Santa Monica to the Blues Highway that connects New Orleans with Wyoming, travellers have the opportunity to take their own adventure across this spectacular and vast country.

Don’t think you have to cross off the road trip option if your time is limited – there are a number of shorter drives you can experience such as Monument Valley or along the Ocean Highway in Florida Keys.

 

4.Regional California

The glitz and glamour of Hollywood is a must-see but it’s also worth considering a visit to the beautiful surrounds of regional California.
