Ideally, take your southern road trip in the spring or fall.
While you can technically take all of these southern USA road trips year-round, the south’s notoriously brutal summer means that it’s best to avoid the months of June, July, and August if you can (unless you plan to spend most of your time on the beach, of course). Winter, depending on the location, can be gray and rainy, but can also be a joyous time to visit cities, towns, and mountains that see far less tourism in the winter (but don’t underestimate the possibility of snow in the mountains...
If you’re renting a car, shop around.
The best company to rent a car from for your US south road trip will likely vary dramatically depending on where and when you’re traveling. Sometimes large international carriers offer the best prices, sometimes local outfits. Sometimes one company has an excellent base price, but terrible rental requirements. The best way to find your rental car is to search through Discover Cars, which will sift through dozens of companies to find the best combination of low prices and reasonable rental ter...
Read the rental requirements carefully.
Especially make sure you know how many miles you’ve been allotted (or ideally, if they’re unlimited), if you need to return the car empty or full of fuel, what to do if the car breaks down, and what damages you’re liable for in the event of an accident.
Mississippi Gulf Coast Scenic Byway
From Charles of US Gulf Coast Travel One of the best scenic coastal drives in the United States is the Gulf Coast Scenic Byway (US Highway 90 / Beach Boulevard) in Coastal Mississippi, where for 11 glorious miles there is nothing between you and the soft sugar sand and Gulf of Mexico water. The most awe-inspiring section of the Gulf Coast Scenic Byway is from Henderson Point Beach to the Port of Gulfport Mississippi. Drive this portion, or this entire road trip, in either direction, but we su...
Alabama Black Belt Road Trip
From Lori of Southerner Says A road trip through the Black Belt region of Alabama is one of the best southern USA road trips around. Named for the dark fertile soil of the region, the Alabama Black Beltis made up of twenty-three states across central and south Alabama. This part of Alabama is the place where significant law-changing history was made, where literary giants were born, and is home to some of the best food that can be found in the United States. For first-time visitors or someone...
Mississippi’s Highway 61
From Hannah of HH Lifestyle Travel A road trip from Memphis to New Orleans down Mississippi’s Highway 61 is rich in music history; and the inevitable river lore that pervades a road trip running parallel to the Mighty Mississippi. In true road trip style, the road itself is part of the fun of the journey. Highway 61 is long and flat and often sits higher than the fields and levees below it. It is punctuated by quaint southern churches, glimpses of the Mississippi River, and cities rich in blu...
The Classic Blue Ridge Parkway Road Trip Route

- Savannah, Georgia. With well-preserved architecture and oaks dripping with Spanish moss, Savannah is easy to fall in love with. A spotlight has been thrown on the city’s dining scene in recent years; splashy new openings like The Grey and Common Thread have impressed diners with their Southern hospitality and memorable takes on Georgia-grown ingredients.
- Bowling Green, Kentucky. For some people, Bowling Green’s appeal can be summed up in two words: cars and caves. At the National Corvette Museum, even non-auto geeks might drool at the mint-condition models and prototypes of America’s most famous car.
- Chattanooga, Tennessee. Chattanooga is having a moment. The scenic riverside city leaves a mark on visitors with its mountain scenery and booming downtown filled with hotels, barbecue joints, and hot spots like Easy Bistro & Bar, a French restaurant and raw bar that makes full use of Southern ingredients (regulars love the charcuterie board).
- Wilmington, North Carolina. Dawson’s Creek and other TV and film productions may have put Wilmington on the map, but there’s so much more to this lively riverfront city than Hollywood ties.
