California Road Trip Tips

There’s nothing like the open road, and with so many amazing destinations in California, we’re poised for endless road trip possibilities. These road trip tips will help you make the most of your wanderlust-driven adventures this year.

Prep Your Car

Since you’ll be spending a lot of time in your car, it’s a good idea to clean the interior and make the space as comfortable as possible beforehand. Once you’ve cleaned out the interior, stock it with wet wipes and a bag for garbage to help keep it decluttered on the trip.

Get Your Vehicle Serviced

It’s always good to have your vehicles serviced before a long trip, for the sake of safety and peace of mind. Be sure to stock your vehicle with maintenance tools for the trip, like a tire-changing kit, a spare, and extra oil.

Have a Backup Plan

You might be planning to fly by the seat of your pants and let GPS do all of the navigation work. However, in case of emergencies like dead phones or no service, it’s good to have a backup plan. Buy a road atlas or map and spend time getting familiar with your route before you take off.

Prepare Entertainment

There are tons of entertainment options perfect for road trips, like podcasts, audiobooks, and playlists. Get your favorites downloaded and ready to go before you leave, and always start the audio before you begin driving so you can keep both hands on the wheel.
