With the app, you can also access your travel plans offline. Using KAYAK's travel tools, like the Trip Calculator and the mobile app, is the perfect way to do this while taking advantage of loyalty programs and discounts. Secure all your lodging reservations, and consider different accommodation options if there are no hotels, like motels and bed-and-breakfasts. Plan where you want to stop, from local attractions to restaurants. Watching the landscape morph from urban sprawl to breathtakingly beautiful, wide-open desert always makes me feel distinctly alive, in the best way possible.įor me, on trips like this planning is not just about finding hotels along my route.
One of my favorite road trips (that I’ve taken more times than I can count) is driving from Austin to Big Bend National Park. But, mapping out your route and booking all your hotels ahead of time is important to make sure you have the most fun-filled, safe, and stress-free trip possible. There’s nothing quite like a road trip – hitting the open road and visiting places you’ve never been to is one of life’s greatest pleasures.
