This online tool claims to make every drive more fun
At Detour we believe that Pit Stops are a hugely important part of any road trip —places to pause your journey, soak in some car culture, grab a bite to eat, discover the local flora and fauna or take in the weird and wonderful.
That’s why we’ve included scores of museums, eateries, street art and natural wonders – all of which you can find under the Pit Stops tab here on detour-roadtrips.com.
And guess what? Great minds think alike as a new trip planning tool at makemydrivefun.com has the same idea. Simply input the start and finish of your planned drive and it will flag up all manner of places to take a break and make your road trip even more entertaining.
To give it a try we plugged in the Cannonball Run route from New York to Redondo Beach, California and makemydrivefun.com came up with dozens of great spots from ghost towns to hot springs and even an alien jerky store near Area 51.
We’ll definitely be adding makemydrivefun.com to our list of road trip planning apps and sites to check while planning future Detours and highly recommend you give it a go as well.
