Activity itinerary

Babbitt Building (Pass by)

The Babbitt brothers arrived from Cincinnati and built a mercantile empire that shaped Flagstaff's economy for over a century. Stand at their corner and hear how this wild railway town — full of saloons, gamblers, and women of the night — became a real city.

Flagstaff (Pass by)

The Flagstaff Train Depot has been welcoming travellers since 1926 — the same year Route 66 was commissioned. Take in the historic station and the Route 66 street sign, standing on a living piece of American highway history.

Motel Du Beau Travelers Inn (Pass by)

One of Flagstaff's beautifully renovated Route 66-era motels. The DuBeau is a living example of the motor court culture that defined American road travel — towering signs, roadside charm, and stories from the golden age of the highway.

Mother Road Brewing Company (Pass by)

Housed in the 1925 Milium Building — a former steam laundry that served Flagstaff's hospitals and hotels for nearly 70 years. After sitting empty and "downright creepy" for decades, it was reborn in 2014 as a craft brewery named for the road it sits on.

Tourist Home Flagstaff Cafe (Pass by)

Discover the Basque community that helped transform Flagstaff's Southside. The handball court was built the same year Route 66 was commissioned. Route 66 didn't just move goods and tourists — it moved people, and the Basque storey is proof.

Mother Myth Mural (Pass by)

A stunning mural at 66 E. Phoenix Ave that ties Flagstaff's Route 66 past to its creative present. One of the most photographed spots on the tour and a fitting tribute to the road that changed everything.
