Historic Route 66 town charms tourists and is beloved by locals

Desert Historic Quirky Tourism Scenic

Nestled along the longest continuous stretch (158 miles) of Route 66, Kingman is the heart of the Mother Road. There is plenty to do in this historic desert town. Pet, feed, and take some selfies with alpacas at Alpacas of the Southwest. Hiking and biking are also common activities in Kingman as there are multiple trails for nature enthusiasts. Visit Hualapai Mountain Park, an oasis filled with juniper, pine forest, and gorgeous granite where you can view wildlife, play volleyball, and of course, park your RV for camping. Learn about the history of the road, Dust Bowl refugees, and more at the Arizona Route 66 Museum. With over 60 restaurants in town, Kingman offers unique eats at themed eateries like Ma and Pa’s Hot Rode Café, a nostalgic car and motorcycle spot. Combine food, fun, and more at Cerbat Lanes Bowling Alley, a 24 lane center with a full service pro shop, soft darts, arcade, pool tables, and grill.

Kingman is ideal for tourists but local residents are proud of their Route 66 roots and have a strong community culture. The Annual Route 66 Run is a 3-day car ride with 900 cars celebrating the Mother Road with events along the way ending with a car show in downtown. Local businesses, artists, and community groups collaborate to create a unique theme for First Friday, a monthly event hosted to strengthen and unite the community. Renting here means you’ll have the perfect combination of historic charm and eclectic activities.
