What is road trippin’ the KILROY Way?
Well, we always encourage our travelers to be curious. To open up, and to embrace the unexpected. Stop where you can, go down the narrow side street and don’t get stuck in the camper. Don’t just drive for the sake of driving. Approach new people. Approach new ways of doing things. Explore and be open to changes – that’s where the magic happens.

Week 1: New York
Start this road trip off the right way with sightseeing, shopping, statue of liberty, Brooklyn, Harlem, Wall Street, street musicians at Times Square and doughnut eating cops in Central Park. New York has so much to offer, so make sure to have enough time in the city (we don't think that 2-3 days are enough). When you're done exploring NYC, pick up your car and head out on an epic road trip! (In New York you're allowed rent a car from the time you're 18).
*You're picking up your rental car and dropping it off again in NYC.

Frequently asked questions

Aim for May through October for an East Coast road trip. You’ll get warm weather and everything will be up and running. If you want crisp air and incredible fall colors, September and October are prime time, especially up north.
Nope! Speed limits top out at 45 mph (or lower), the roads are super curvy, and there are no gas stations on the parkway. The whole drive takes 12 to 15 hours. Treat it like a chill, scenic drive—not a fast shortcut!
Yes. If you missed early autumn up north, heading south to Virginia and North Carolina gives you access to the longest foliage season in the country. Expect rolling mountain vistas bathed in a warm, golden glow.
Cruise along Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park or take the Blue Ridge Parkway all the way down to the Great Smoky Mountains.
