- Days 1-2
  New York City:
  Start in NYC and hit the Empire State Building before 9 AM to skip the crowds. A recent visitor shared: "The morning light over Manhattan from the observation deck was incredible, and we only waited 10 minutes to get up." Spend your first afternoon in Lower Manhattan and the 9/11 Memorial. Use day 2 for Midtown attractions and Central Park. Get a MetroCard for unlimited subway rides - it's much better than dealing with rush hour taxi traffic.
- Days 3-4
  Philadelphia & Washington DC:
  NYC to Philly is about 2 hours by car. Give yourself 2-3 hours for the Independence Hall area before driving to DC (2.5 hours more). The National Mall museums in DC are free but fill up quickly. Get there at 10 AM when they open. Book your Capitol tour well ahead of time. Take the monuments tour at night for better photos and smaller crowds.
- Days 5-6
  Niagara Falls:
  The 7-hour drive from DC is long but scenic. Book a hotel on the Canadian side for better views. Take the Maid of the Mist boat ride in the morning when lines are shorter. Bring a waterproof jacket - you'll need it! Take time to drive the Niagara Parkway and check out the vineyards.
- Days 7-8
  Chicago:
  Stop at the Henry Ford Museum near Detroit on your way to Chicago (4 hours more). Stay in River North to be close to Michigan Avenue shopping and Navy Pier. Book your Lake Michigan architecture cruise early if you're visiting in summer.
- Days 9-11
  Minneapolis to South Dakota:
  Break up the long western drive with a stop in Madison WI. The Mall of America is worth seeing before you enter South Dakota's landscape. Book your Badlands hotel early during peak season. A visitor told us: "The Badlands' striped rock formations at sunset were otherworldly—arrive by 7 PM for the best light."
- Days 12-16
  Mount Rushmore to Yellowstone:
  Take full days to see Mount Rushmore and Yellowstone's main attractions. West Yellowstone is the best place to stay for park access. Plan around Old Faithful's eruptions every 90 minutes. Look for wildlife at dawn and dusk. Stop in Jackson for amazing Grand Teton views.
- Days 17-20
  Utah Parks to Las Vegas:
  Take your time in Utah's national parks. See Bryce Canyon's rock formations at sunrise for the best photos. Start Zion hikes early before the midday heat. Visit the Grand Canyon's North Rim to avoid crowds, then head to Las Vegas for a complete change of pace.
- Days 21-24
  Los Angeles:
  Drive across the Mojave Desert in the morning when it's cooler. Pick a hotel in Santa Monica or West Hollywood where you can walk to attractions. Book the Warner Bros. Studio Tour ahead - it sells out fast. Plan extra time to deal with LA traffic between sites.

- Days 1-2
  Florida
  Start in Miami to get your bearings before heading to Orlando. One traveler's tip: "Universal Studios is a must - but get there when it opens at 9am to beat the crowds and Florida heat." Plan your visit around the Harry Potter areas, which get really busy after lunch.
- Days 3-5
  Deep South
  Take a stop in Savannah, Georgia to explore the historic district for a few hours. Next up is Nashville, where you'll want to hit the Country Music Hall of Fame first thing. In Memphis, give yourself plenty of time for Graceland and try to catch an early Sun Studio tour to skip the crowds.
- Days 6-8
  Louisiana & Texas
  The drive to New Orleans takes about 7 hours. You'll want two full days to explore the French Quarter. Get to Café du Monde before 8am if you don't want to wait in line for their famous beignets. Plan your Houston arrival to miss the worst traffic at 4pm.
- Days 9-12
  Texas Triangle & Route 66
  Check out the Fort Worth stockyards early to beat the heat. On your way to Amarillo, stop at Cadillac Ranch and bring spray paint if you want to leave your mark. Pack some warm clothes too - Texas winters can catch you off guard.
- Days 13-15
  Southwest
  Get up early in Albuquerque if you want to catch a hot air balloon ride. When you get to Denver, take it slow - the altitude is no joke at 5,280 feet. Drink lots of water and visit the Botanic Gardens in the morning light.
- Days 16-19
  Utah's National Parks
  Make Moab your home base for Arches and Canyonlands. A recent visitor shared: "The 3-mile Devils Garden trail in Arches gets intense midday - start by 7am and bring twice as much water as you think you need." Give yourself full days to explore Bryce Canyon and Zion.
- Days 20-23
  Grand Canyon to California
  Get to Mather Point 30 minutes before sunrise for the best Grand Canyon views. It's about 4.5 hours to Vegas from there. Your final stretch to LA through the Mojave Desert needs some planning - try to avoid arriving between 3-7pm when traffic is worst.

  Florida's Highlights
  Begin in Miami before driving to Orlando (3.5 hours). Start your Universal Studios visit early in the morning. "The Express Pass is worth every penny. Lines get crazy by 11 AM, especially at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter," notes a TourRadar visitor.
- Days 3-5
  Southern Culture
  Take the 4-hour drive to Savannah to explore its historic squares. Next stop is Nashville for some authentic country music. Book your Grand Ole Opry tickets well ahead since shows typically sell out weeks in advance.
- Days 6-8
  Music & Soul
  Head from Memphis to New Orleans. Visit Graceland first thing to avoid the crowds. A visitor tip for the French Quarter: "The early morning beignet lines at Café du Monde are shorter and the weather is cooler for walking tours."
- Days 9-11
  Texas Triangle
  Travel between Houston, Dallas, and Fort Worth (4-5 hours between each city). Get to NASA Space Center right when it opens at 9 AM to avoid Houston traffic. Plan to see the Fort Worth Stockyards at sunset for the best cowboy atmosphere.
- Days 12-15
  Southwest to Rockies
  Drive through Amarillo to Albuquerque and Denver. Stop at Cadillac Ranch early morning for the best photos. Remember that Denver's altitude is significant. Take it slow on your first day and drink lots of water.
- Days 16-19
  Utah's Mighty 5
  Stay in Moab to visit Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. Continue to Capitol Reef and Bryce Canyon. A recent visitor suggests: "Bring proper hiking shoes - the terrain varies dramatically between parks, and standard sneakers won't cut it on slickrock."
- Days 20-23
  Grand Finale
  Travel from Grand Canyon to Las Vegas via Route 66. Watch the sunrise at Grand Canyon's South Rim before the crowds and heat arrive. For Las Vegas, a traveler recommends: "Book your final hotel on or near The Strip - taxi fares from off-Strip locations add up quickly."
