This tour starts with the Grand Canyon, but could theoretically start anywhere in these 50 destinations. The important thing is to follow this itinerary so as not to increase the distance.
If you would travel continuously without stopping it would take more than 9 full days, but this is impossible. Besides that it would not make sense to travel continuously without visiting the various destinations. Theoretically, for an itinerary like this it would take 2 to 3 months.
In our opinion, however, some important destinations and unmissable destinations in the United States have been left out. Which ones do you think can be removed from the tour and which ones should be added?
You can insert in the comments those to be removed and those to be added. We will soon create a different itinerary with the best and most important destinations in the United States of America.
