The great American road trip is a tried-and-true family tradition.
Driving the country's scenic highways and stopping to explore anything that catches your eye — perhaps a stunning viewpoint, a side-of-the-road lobster shack or a historical marker — is a wonderful way to explore the United States with your family this summer.
It's also a great way to save money while exploring, whether you redeem points, rent an RV or find affordable hotels, motels or camping sites along the way. Depending on the popularity of your destination in high season, consider booking your first few hotels in advance. But then, allow yourself to be more impulsive.
