Itinerary Motorcycle touring and cruiser tour reverse route 66 (Los Angeles -  Chicago) Self guided

The tour program describes the main attractions for the 15-day journey on the world-famous, legendary and historic U.S. Route 66, also known as “The Mother Road”. Route 66 has throughout history been the road for migrants, dreamers, desperadoes and a whole generation of holidaymakers, who explored the road to the west. The 1950s were Route 66’s peak. Thousands of cars drove “bumper-to-bumper” to experience the western emigration route. Hotels, motels, and the “new America” grew up everywhere. Much of Route 66’s original roads, restaurants, gas stations, and nostalgic landmarks are preserved just as they were in the ’50s. Hence the famous and nostalgic Route 66 is a heaven for motorcycle riding.

It will be a day of city-, highway- and desert driving, and it will get very hot. We recommend riding with a hydration (cooling) vest, which makes it much easier to cope with the heat.

You are now in a city called “The adult playground” or “Sin City”. Vegas Baby! Have fun! Las Vegas has everything, stunning buildings, unique shows, casinos and all kinds of entertainment. Vegas is never boring! We highly recommend visiting Caesars Palace, Bellagio, MGM, Stardust, Treasure Island, The Venetian, Mirage, and Wyatt. In the evening you will be able to watch volcanic eruptions every 15 minutes at the Mirage. The garden is transformed into a flame show. Inside the casino, you will find rare white tigers.

You stop in Hackberry, a small traditional Route 66 gas station, full of history, like taken out of an old movie. You can enjoy ice cream or cola in the shade.



Then you drive to the Grand Canyon helicopter base. If you have ordered the helicopter tour you will get an experience of a lifetime, truly something you’ll never forget. To hover in the air over one of the seven wonders and experience this natural phenomenon up close is absolutely magical. Highly recommend! After the helicopter ride, you drive a short distance to the visitor center, where you have the chance to watch the world’s most viewed Imax movie. When you see the film, it feels almost like standing inside the Grand Canyon. Thereafter, you ride into the Grand Canyon, where you take this year’s holiday photo!
