Last year, we bought a 2015 Toyota Sienna and both Frank and I love to drive it! It’s super comfortable for going on day trips or traveling far for staycations and vacations! However, going on road trips takes time and effort to plan, not to mention finding things to keep the kids occupied while on the trip. That’s where Fodor’s comes into play.

With summer right around the corner, planning your family vacation is easy thanks to Fodor’s Travel. For 80 years, Fodor’s has been a trusted resource offering expert travel advice and in celebration of the National Park Service Centennial in 2016, their experts unveiled a new suite of online tools and updated guidebooks to help travelers plan an unforgettable family trip to America’s incredible natural wonders. Throughout 2016, all parks, including the venerable Yellowstone and Yosemite, will celebrate the centennial with activities and initiatives that allow visitors to revel in their natural, historical, and cultural splendor.

There’s no better way to explore a national park (or a few!) than to hit the road and let’s face it, picking which parks to visit and what scenic routes to take can be overwhelming. Fodor’s National Park Road Trip Itineraries, found on Fodors.com, include the most road-trip worthy adventures to parks across various states. And that’s not all you’ll find – National Parks 101 tells you everything you need to know about planning a trip to the national parks, including booking, budgeting and packing tips; and National Parks Finder helps you find and compare national parks based on activity, region or season. When you use these tools with Fodor’s National Parks of the West, on sale May 10, which includes completely updated coverage of the best sites, dining, and lodging in and around each park, you’re sure to have the best summer trip yet.

And while you’re on the road with your family, you’re going to need some travel entertainment. The solution: Listen to an audiobook! With an audiobook, you can completely lose yourself in the journey, enjoying the scenery while listening to a great narrator tell you a story. Ideal listening with kids in the car, audiobooks expand vocabulary, teach pronunciation and improve reading comprehension. In fact, 85% of what we learn, we learn by listening. Whether it’s a charmingly, quirky tale for your middle grader like Jennifer L. Holm’s The Fourteenth Goldfish, a brain-teasing mystery like Chris Grabenstein’s Escape From Mr. Lemoncello’s Library, or Jack London’s classic The Call of the Wild read by Emmy Award winner Jeff Daniels, you’ll be able to sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride!

This summer, I encourage you to take your family to take a road trip out west using resources from Fodor’s Travel and Penguin Random House.

    I’d love to travel to Niagara Falls or Yellowstone National Park… even though they’re both extremely far from each other. 🙂

    We’ll probably be staying local this year, with a few weekend camping trips. Next summer, however, we’re going to Yosimite!

    I would love to go back to the Outer Banks. We went many years ago and had a blast. It would be even more fun to go again now that our girls are older and could enjoy it more. Thank you!

    I will be traveling parts of central California and the bay area with my sisters this summer. We are heading to the Gilroy Garlic Festival and doing some wine tasting for my 50th birthday!

    I would love to take our kids to visit Olympic National Park / WA, but they would rather head to the beach in San Diego.
