There is always going to be some old favorites that you see time and time again on a bucket list. People want to see the green islands of New Zealand, the vast country that is Australia, swim with sharks, snorkel the Great Barrier Reef, walk to Great Wall Of China and take the ultimate road trip across America. It is this road trip I wanted to discuss today. While all of the above are very worthy additions of a bucket list, a road trip is a great an exciting adventure to embark on. I thought I would share with you some of the things you need to consider if you fancy organizing you every own all American road trip.

Think about the car you want to travel in

One of the first things to think about would be the type of vehicle you will need for your road trip. One big indicator of the style you might like would be the amount of guests you have on the trip. The dream might be a Ford Mustang, but the reality might be more like mini van depending on how many people are coming along. You also need to consider luggage and how much you will need to take around with you.

Where do you want to stop?

The next thing to think about would be the destinations you want to stop in. This might depend on where you are traveling to and the type of road trip you are wanting to take. It could be that you are focusing on one or two states that are close together, in which then you will be looking at the different cities and locations in which you want to see. It would also depend on the time you have to travel and take in the locations you want to see. This is when research can really help. Don’t be afraid to visit smaller towns and destinations, often these can provide you with the best experiences and beauty. Which leads me nicely on to my next point.

What about accommodation?

The all important element of a road trip may be the car and places, but what about where you will stop for the night? This also needs careful planning and consideration to ensure that the accommodation is close to the things you want to do. This is when websites like Julian Cabins can come in handy. Whether it’s hotels, camping, or taking advantage of some greats elf catering options that are available you are bound to find the right sort of accommodation to suit your holiday and your budget.

Are there any sites you want to see?

Finally, when you know the locations you are planning on stopping in, the next fun thing to plan is exactly how you are going to spend your time there. Are there any particular sites or things you want to experience and see? This is the perfect time to consult your bucket list or look online at travel blogs to see what is recommended.

I hope these tips help you plan the All American road trip.
