Since 1926, AAA’s free TourBook guides have been providing trustworthy travel information to AAA members. The digital guide is the same great TourBook you know and love, but now you can get that information and more in an eco-friendly, easy-to-use format on your smartphone, tablet or desktop. It also is downloadable, so you can access the guide wherever you are at any time of day.
Go from dreaming about your next vacation — whether that’s a
family adventure to Yosemite, a romantic getaway in Asheville or
a fun trip with friends in Austin — to planning with this interactive
guide. You can find a hotel with ease and book your room with just
a click of the Book Now button. Save money with access to special
deals and benefits available only to AAA members and you can rest
assured that wherever you choose to stay, it will be clean and comfortable. Or follow the link to contact a travel agent at your local AAA office. They can assist you with a complete vacation package, from finding the best deals and booking your hotel to helping you plan an entire itinerary.
All hotels in the digital guide have earned a AAA Diamond designation by going through rigorous inspections conducted by AAA’s team of professional inspectors. Not only are they clean, but you can also know what level of amenities are offered, making it easy to choose a hotel that best suits your budget and your preferences.
Save time planning your trip by using our helpful articles. AAA’s team of travel editors has created one-day itineraries that you can follow exactly to get the most out of a short excursion. Alternatively, use them as a guide to get an idea of where things are in a city to assist in planning your trip, so you don’t waste valuable vacation time.
Our travel editors also have identified must-see attractions including GEMs, Great Experience for Members, that shouldn’t be missed. These include stops ranging from the Montreal Botanical Garden and The Field Museum in Chicago to the Painted Desert in the Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. They also have noted top places to take children, so everyone of all ages has a good time during your family vacation.
Unlike the printed guides, the all-new digital TourBook guides include road trips. You can use these to plan out an entire itinerary like a classic trip down Route 66 or a drive up the Northern California coast. Our suggested routes include stops such as tasty local restaurants to refuel, museums to learn about the area and parks to recharge and stretch your legs in an idyllic setting. Or use them to take a detour down a scenic byway through forests, around lakes and even for leaf-peeping in the fall.
