Williams, Arizona, one of this tour's two real pickup points, carries a title it's held for well over a century: 'Gateway to the Grand Canyon.' The name traces back to 1901, when the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway completed a 60-mile branch line connecting Williams to the South Rim, after buying out an earlier, financially troubled rail venture that had stalled short of the canyon. That branch — still running today as the Grand Canyon Railway — is what first turned a small lumber and ranching settlement, founded in 1876 and officially incorporated in July 1901, into the real starting point for canyon tourism in northern Arizona.
Williams also holds a genuinely unusual piece of Route 66 history: it was the very last town on the entire highway in the United States to be bypassed by the interstate system. When Interstate 40 finally opened around the town on October 13, 1984, roughly 500 people gathered at the new exit to mark what newspapers at the time called the effective end of Route 66 — and Bobby Troup, who wrote the song '(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66,' performed it there in person. That late bypass is part of why Williams' historic downtown still feels genuinely intact today, rather than hollowed out the way many Route 66 towns were decades earlier.
Flagstaff, the other real pickup point for this tour, has its own independent history as a railroad and lumber town — by 1886 it was already the largest town on the rail line between Albuquerque and the West Coast, and companies like the Riordan brothers' Arizona Lumber and Timber Company built much of its early economy. At 7,000 feet, it was also the highest-elevation town on the original Route 66. Today it's the single closest major city to the South Rim, a real advantage that a small, personalized operator like this one can put to good use — a shorter drive means more real time spent at the canyon itself, not stuck in the car getting there.
