Route 66 in Oklahoma is tons of fun! There is a huge blue whale in Catoosa, Neon lights In Tulsa and Oklahoma City, quirky curiosity shops in Erick (among others), and ghost towns – including in Texola!! So much to do and see! Due to our “detour” we didn’t see the big whale and a few other renowned Oklahoma Route 66 attractions. However, we did enjoy PLENTY of Oklahoma attractions with great fun factor!

TULSA

Start at the Visitor Center

Plan your visit – including these FREE Tulsa activities!

Don’t miss >>> TULSA MOTHER ROAD MARKET (Lewis and 13th Street, see the Google map location)

The Mother Road Market is a very accessible food hall with an eclectic array of foods. I especially loved the Native American pop-up restaurant with wafting smells of squash, beans, and much more!

My meal was vegan and delicious!

When in Tulsa Make Some Noise!

Celebrate the Route 66 Centennial by making some music! Just hop on a bike, pedal, and listen to what you create! Free and easy! (next to the Mother Road Market on Lewis Street/ Route 66 in Tulsa.)

DISCOVER SMALLER OKLAHOMA TOWNS on ROUTE 66

Stop at the Stafford Air and Space Museum. Named for their local hero and astronaut, General Thomas P. Stafford. The museum is located in Weatherford, Oklahoma. Check out their website for details, including educational opportunities.

This is a great spot to stop on a hot day or to let the kids explore the outside planes and rockets.

Don’t forget to take a picture of the fun Route 66 commemorative car in the front!
