100 years of Route 66 - TMC Reisen celebrates America's most legendary road with individual rental car routes

Gro?karolinenfeld, October 2025 - It's more than just asphalt: Route 66 stands for freedom, new beginnings and the feeling of really experiencing America. To mark the 100th anniversary of the legendary "Mother Road" in 2026, TMC Reisen is offering tailor-made rental car tours that allow travelers to discover the most famous road in the USA in their own personal way - authentically, flexibly and with the experience of a true USA specialist.

The Mother Road turns 100 - and is alive like never before

Route 66 was officially opened on November 11, 1926. It connected Chicago in the north with Los Angeles in the west - around 4,000 kilometers of American history. Diners with neon lights, old petrol stations, abandoned motels and small Main Street towns are still symbols of the American way of life today.

The fascination is returning for the anniversary: numerous states along the route are planning events, classic car parades and themed festivals in 2026 to revive the lifestyle of past decades. For many travelers, now is the perfect time to make this dream come true - behind the wheel of their own rental car (or Harley Davidson).

TMC Travel: Individual, authentic, experienced

TMC Reisen has been specializing in tailor-made North American tours for over 20 years. The team knows the USA down to the last detail - and knows how to make legendary routes such as Route 66 come alive today:

* Classic Route 66 tour: from Chicago to Santa Monica in 15 to 20 days, with carefully selected accommodation and suggested itineraries.
* Route 66 & National Parks: combination with Grand Canyon, Monument Valley or Las Vegas.
* Deluxe option: boutique hotels, historic motels, convertible or SUV category.

"Hardly any other road embodies the feeling of freedom as much as Route 66," says Uli Edelmann, owner of TMC Reisen. "_To mark the 100th anniversary, we want to show our customers that this journey is not just a road trip - but a journey through America's soul. With our individual advice, every guest experiences Route 66 in the way that suits them best."

Flexibility with expert service

TMC Reisen supports its customers from the initial planning to the last mile: with route suggestions, hotel recommendations, rental cars in all categories and practical travel documents including a personalized road book. Side trips, extensions or combination routes - for example with California, the southern states or the southwest - can be integrated on request.

This turns every tour into a very personal Route 66 experience - beyond standard packages, but with the security of professional travel planning.
