Often called the best drive in America, the Great River Road is more than just a road; it's an adventure! Following the Mississippi River across an incredible ten states, this 3,000-mile U.S. road trip will see you pass through the likes of Minnesota, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Mississippi. The National Scenic Byway will take you around 36 hours to drive in one go - but it's always a good idea to split this up and check out some cool places to stay along the way.
In fact, we'd suggest splitting up this journey anywhere between four to 10 days, allowing you the chance to really appreciate the scenic river views and the hotels you can find along the route.
