True Route 66 aficionados know that the heart and soul of the Mother Road stretches across Arizona. This is where the tide of history turned. After the old highway—once known as America’s Main Street—had been officially decertified it was brought back from the brink in Arizona. Here the preservation movement began, and continues.
Take the road trip of your dreams when you journey on Arizona’s Route 66. No other state can match the epic scenery of our distinctly western landscape. Travel through rugged mountains, sun-kissed desert, tall pine forests, and rolling grasslands where pronghorns graze alongside Burma Shave signs. Explore the small towns filled with mom-and-pop diners, vintage motor courts, blazing neon signs, and classic roadside attractions.
Slow down and savor the sights. Stop and chat with the people you meet along the way. Take plenty of photos and make lots of memories. Because you see, America still has a Main Street. You’re about to discover it.
