Fort Tours covers America but is focused on the Southern Plains. The Santa Fe Trail from Boone's Lick on the Missouri to the Rocky Mountains forms the northern border and the National Park Service has provided an engaging driving tour.

It seems appropriate that America's favorite Cowboy/Indian, Will Rogers, did a hitch at Booneville's (Boone' s Lick)Kemper Military School, established in 1844 to better educate the young princes of the prairie to assume their role in America's manifest destiny. The western border is formed by the Rio Grande River and the ancient Camino Real is another National Park drive worth taking. Details about the remaining recommended road trips can be found on our maps page.
