  • Next spring we would like to go from Chicago to Seattle. What is the best route?
    We will rent a car in Chicago and leave it in Seattle from where we will fly to Spain again.
    We have a month of time. What and how do you recommend we do it?

  • We want to visit the Grand Canyon by car from Las Vegas. I would like to know if you recommend taking Route 66 and knowing what is interesting to see along the way. We only have 1 day for this, we arrive at the Monumental Valley and visit where the Navajo Indians live?
    Thanks, Carina
