Day 1: Chicago-Pontiac-Springfield (454 miles)

Today, we will leave Chicago and travel to the southwest along the famous Route 66 to explore this classic American highway. The first stop of the journey is Pontiac. Follow us to visit the Route 66 Association Hall of Fame. This museum with the theme of road has a large collection of historical materials and exhibits related to this "Mother's Road". The outer wall is a spot that you cannot miss! Following, we will visit the Pontiac Oakland Automobile Museum, where a large number of cars and related souvenirs were collected, covering the history of the development of the Pitiac under General Motors.
