I felt he had too much of an East Coast bias, and threw a few touristy things from the heart land in there. Skipped most of the rockies and then added a bunch of west coast. While visiting the childhood home of Mark Twain and Louisa Alcott might be of interest to maybe 1% of people watching, He left out places like Zion, Bryce, the Bonneville Salt flats, Grand Tetons, Tombstone, Sedona, Roswell... SO many places in the rockies & Southwest that should have been included rather than a rebuilt (not even original) cabin in the backwoods of Kentucky. The way the list was going I expected him to put 'the biggest ball of yarn;' or 'the 50 ft tall rocking chair' as must sees.

Regarding passports. Another reason a lot of Americans don't have passports is because until 9/11 a passport wasn't required to go to Mexico, Canada and some islands. So they've only been required since several years after 9/11. Another reason is pretty far and therefore rather expensive to get to countries in Europe/Asia/South America. I've had a passport since 1983.

Mark Twain was the pen name of Samuel Clemens who wrote Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. He was also a humorist. (1835-1910) In the late 1890s, he spoke to the Savage Club in London and was elected an honorary member. He was told that only three men had been so honored, including the Prince of Wales, and he replied: "Well, it must make the Prince feel mighty fine."

I agree with the Beasleys. Not many of these places are somewhere you would go to just see that place. I mean I can't see spending more than an hour or two at many of them. If your going to say something like Mark Twains' house, why not Teddy Roosevelt's house here on Long Island? Or Walt Whitmans house. You can spend 2-3 hours there but then it's on Long Island. So there is plenty of other things to do besides the house. I bet there are plenty of other places, just like Twain's house that have more to offer than just a house to see.

Another reason many Americans don't have passports is because a lot of workplaces here don't give their employees enough vacation time compared to many other countries. If you're lucky, you might get two weeks off for the entire year and many companies won't even give that. If Americans want to travel we usually have to make it quick and it's easier to stay within the country. My husband's company, for example, uses some of that time if he becomes ill and has to miss work. We're taking one week to visit my parents in another state because that's all he has after having a cold earlier in the year.

Cincinnati has the first fire station in the US, in 1869, the Cincinnati Reds were the very first pro baseball team, Cincinnati also has rich history of the Underground Railroad helping those enslaved reach freedom and then the Ohio River itself. Also the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is incredible, not a bad Elvis impersonator as this guy showed, he obviously isn't a music fan. My uncle lives on a mountain which the Blue Ridge parkway winds through, the Blue Ridge mntns are incredible.

Best way to do Route 66 is to go EAST to WEST in a comfortable large car (there is a reason why those classic Cadillacs are so big). Go with a minimal planning and be open to seeing silly, crazy, insane things like largest buffalo or a weird bug museums, or VWs stuck in the desert, or whatever the billboards are advertising, just go and see and don't try to make sense of it all. At the end of the EAST to WEST journey, you get to see the Pacific Ocean and explore Venice Beach and other LA places. You can then drive up to Anaheim and go to Disneyland or go to San Francisco. Route 66 EAST to WEST has a way better finish line and the roadside attractions get crazier the farther west you go so the build up is a lot more exciting.

You are right the second half wasn't as compelling. My total count out of the 100 is 46. FYI, Rt66 doesn't take as long going back because on the way you are stopping at roadside attractions. On your way home you are just driving back directly without stopping.

Mark Twain to us is like your Charles Dickens. His books are fun interesting reading. It's life back in the days before the civil war.

I think i counted 16 total for me. Was surprised Notre Dame stadium was on the list. I'm a football fan but don't care about visiting it. Washington DC is a must. As Millie mentioned also, surprised Graceland wasn't on the list. There are numerous places I'd add to this list and take quite a few of his off.

Graceland was closed for visitors at the start of the pandemic and as far as I know, it’s still closed.

Between both videos i have been to 37. And about route 66. Oklahoman has the longest fully open stretch of the highway left.

I would not rule out Rocky Mountain National Park because of pictures of snow. Giviving off cold feelings. We enjoyed or time in the park and regretted not being there longer.

If you visit Vegas there are a ton of tours to the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam. Los Angeles is also about a 3.5 hour drive from Vegas, so it’s a good spot to visit if you want to see a lot of the more popular destinations in a single vacation.

Beesleys: I've said it before--skip southern California and focus on Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Big Sur to Mendocino on Highway 1, San Francisco, Marin County, the Redwood Forest and Napa wine country. you won't be disappointed. Yosemite is the most amazing thing to see in all of our national parks. If you go to Lake Tahoe in July or August you will not believe how wonderful the climate is and the lake is AMAZING.

I've been to 30 of these sites. Not a bad list, but of course, only 100 items is pretty limiting for a country the size of the US.
