Buy a Rail Pass for $899, and get on the train. Go just about anywhere in the next 45 days, making stops- where you leave the train, spending time at your destination, then reboard and go somewhere else.
I got a pass, and went 12 places in 45 days. I went from Illinois, To Texas, to Arizona, to California, and back- 3 times. I ran out of my 45 day window, and had to buy a couple of destinations in my loops. It’s the best $899.00 I ever spent. Clickety Clack!
I have always wanted or do that. ! A dream trip !
