    The Ultimate Driving Trip: The Blue Ridge Parkway From Top to Bottom

    Many travelers who enjoy leisure travel using their own car have often dreamed about driving some of America’s most scenic drives in total. Knowing that the Blue Ridge Parkway is considered by many to be "America’s most scenic roadway," we have created "The Ultimate Driving Experience", traversing the Parkway from beginning to end. Along the way, we’ve arranged for you to stay in the wonderful series of Historic Hotels that dot the Parkway from top to bottom and explore the heritage and culture of the nearby historic towns.

    Even though the spring and fall have always been considered the ideal time to take a trip like this, it will work in any season. Experiencing four distinct seasons, the Parkway is constantly transforming itself. The trees and flowers bloom with every new spring producing a bright vivid rainbow of colors that lead into the lush green of summer. In autumn, the mountains change once again to showcase the wonderful array of blazing fall colors. And then the stillness arrives with each new snowfall.

    Whatever season you choose, there are plenty of chances to slow down, relax, meander and enjoy some of America’s finest scenic views.
