16 Road Trips Inspired by Movies You Can Take Across the US This Summer

Follow in the footsteps of best friends Thelma Dickinson and Louise Sawyer, whose road trip leads to some rather exciting, unforeseen, yet empowering misadventures and an unfortunate end. The duo originally intend to spend a relaxing weekend at a friend's cabin in the mountains, but they end up at the breathtaking (quite literally in this movie!) Grand Canyon. Start off in Little Rock, then make your way west through the Ouachita Mountains to Oklahoma City. Thelma and Louise had planned to get to Mexico while avoiding Texas, so make your way to Columbus City, NM, then head to the Grand Canyon for some of the most impressive views the US has to offer.
