Fly into Phoenix and go round trip or one way to Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Denver\u2026 wherever your heart desires. You can read our full American Southwest itinerary<\/a>\u00a0for more information, but here are some of the highlights.<\/p>\n What would an Arizona road trip be without a stop at the Grand Canyon? One of the\u00a07 Natural Wonders of the World<\/a>, the 277-mile-long canyon is a mile deep and 18 miles across at its widest point. If you\u2019re just passing by, you can see the\u00a0Grand Canyon<\/a>\u00a0in all of its glory from the road (time it so you can watch the sunset, if you can). If you have more time to spare, take a multi-day hike from rim-to-rim or to the bottom.<\/p>\n The giant saguaro is the symbol of the American Southwest and the state flower\u2013and you\u2019ll find plenty of them here. Stop at the visitor center for facts about saguaro (like how they can grow to be 60 feet tall!), then drive the Cactus Desert Scenic Loop Drive.<\/p>\n The best location in the US to see petrified wood is found here in a particularly beautiful range of bright colors. There are fossils, badlands, buttes and mesas, ancient petroglyphs, wildlife and wildflowers, and vast vistas for more than a hundred miles.<\/p>\n You may not be in the middle of nowhere while visiting this place, but you can definitely see it from there. Located on Highway 163 between the towns of Kayenta and Mexican Hat (make sure you stop over and get a Navajo Taco), this is the land that time forgot. For a $5 fee\u2014paid to the Navajo Nation\u2014you can drive the 17-mile loop taking you on a meandering path around the Monuments.<\/p>\n This remote and unspoiled 294,000-acre monument is a geologic treasure, containing Paria Plateau, Vermilion Cliffs, Coyote Buttes and Paria Canyon. Keep in mind that the most popular areas, like Coyote Butte, require hiking permits no matter what time of year you visit.<\/p>\n This strenuous 8-mile hike takes you to five beautiful blue-green waterfalls. A dirt trail will take you over two small bridges to turquoise swimming holes and waterfalls that reach up to 200 feet high. Make sure you get a permit months in advance!<\/p>\n If you want a feel of what Route 66 used to be back in the days of Kerouac, this is your place. Pull over, grab a chili dog and chocolate malt at the Snow Cap and wander around town.<\/p>\n This is one of the most iconic roadside stops in all of Arizona\u2014a \u201cmust-see-to-believe\u201d sort of geologic formation at Lake Powell.<\/p>\n Located minutes from Page, Arizona, Antelope Canyon is easily the most photographed slot canyon in the world. You\u2019ll need a guide for this trip, so try to sign up in advance.<\/p>\n Average Temperature (December to March): mid-70s F high, 53-66\u00b0F low<\/p>\n Nearest Escape Depot: Orlando<\/a><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":11441,"id":11441,"title":"bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida","filename":"bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida.jpg","filesize":85518,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/de\/itineraries\/east-coast-tour\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-2\/","alt":"","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":6398,"date":"2018-12-04 17:53:31","modified":"2018-12-04 17:53:31","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":940,"height":650,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-300x207.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":207,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-768x531.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":531,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-1024x708.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":708,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida.jpg","1536x1536-width":940,"1536x1536-height":650,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida.jpg","2048x2048-width":940,"2048x2048-height":650,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida-1200x830.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":830,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":207,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":277,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/bradenton-beach-manatee-county-florida.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":415}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":" With the warmest temperatures on our list, Florida<\/a> is the ideal destination for a winter road trip.
