Route 66 stands as an enduring symbol of American freedom and adventure, shaping both the history and culture of the United States. Our celebration tour of this iconic highway begins with a visit to the National Museum of Transportation. Located between the old and new Route 66, the National Museum of Transportation features one of the largest and finest collections of vehicles in the world. With over 190 exhibits, including a preserved section of the Coral Court Motel - a former Route 66 landmark - you'll enjoy a docent-led tour of the museum.
Lunch will be at Twisted Tree, which sits along Historic Route 66. Located in the heart of St. Louis, Twisted Tree Steakhouse is a "twisted" collaboration from two renowned restaurant families, the Syberg's Family of Restaurants and Abbadessa's Pear Tree Kitchen & Bar in Macon, Missouri. Our mission is to create an extraordinary experience through amazing food and exceptional service, striking a balance between casual, approachable, and innovative design.
After lunch, enjoy dessert at Ted Drewes with your choice of a mini chip concrete or a small hot fudge sundae. Located along Historic Route 66, this one-of-a-kind franchise has never been sold and is a regular favorite of visitors and locals alike. Be sure to get your picture under the Route 66 sign! After your Ted Drewes treat, you will take a drive down Watson Road, the former Route 66. See some of the original structures like the Wayside Motel and Crestwood Bowl, both still in operation today.
The final stop on this celebration tour is the Neon Museum of St Louis. Inside this ever-glowing space are relics of businesses and products, contemporary sculpture, and striking signage, all rendered in neon
