Explore Salt Lake City
After landing at Salt Lake City airport, you’ll make your way to pick up your rental car before heading to your hotel in the heart of the city. The capital of Utah is surrounded by rugged mountains, and makes a great first stop before beginning your all-American road trip!
Depending on what time you arrive, you might want to head out to the lake which gives the city its name. It’s a 1.5 hour drive to Antelope Island State Park, where you can take a dip in the salt-rich water and float along the surface. If you’d prefer to stay local and explore the city sights, Thanksgiving Point offers lots of fun for all the family with a museum, farm, gardens and a butterfly biosphere.
