Written Directions

You can catch this route from Kingman or Seligman side by following the Route 66 signage.

Scenery

Just the Ol' 66 instead of the drone on the 40. Keep an eye for Grand Canyon Caverns, pretty cool and worth a stop. Little Route 66 shops along the way, rumored to be the road the movie Cars was based on. The big rafts from the Grand Canyon Expeditions get trailed bback to the top by this route.

Drive Enjoyment

I give it a 3 as its an easy road to ride and slower than the 40, but its nice getting off the Super Highway!

Tourism Opportunities

Mom and Pop food in Seligman and little gift/knick knack stuff all through town. The Famous Road Kill Café is in Seligman. Grand Canyon Caverns has rooms, greasy spoon and the Cavern Tour. Catch Mr D'z in Downtown Kingman for that old 50's feel, A pic with the big train engine and museum downtown Kingman and Desert Diamond distillery by the Airport while heading out of town.

The Old Route 66 is an iconic road; from the quirky stores and restaurants in Seligman to the Burma-Shave catchy road signs. The road is not challenging, fairly well maintained, and a refreshing bypass of I-40. Take a ride back in time, getting your kicks on Route 66.
