Our own route
We've driven and explored every stop on this route ourselves, and we know the secret spots — not tourist trails, but places you won't find on Google Maps.
Small group of up to 8
People leave every trip as friends. That's why it's easy to travel with us even on your own — without the rush of big group tours.
All inclusive
Full meals: hot breakfasts, lunches and dinners, plus snacks, fruit, tea and coffee on the road. SUP boards or kayaks, e-bikes and e-scooters, entry to all parks and internet. Just bring an outfit for great photos — don't worry about anything else.
Our team and an active trip
Starlink and an LTE router the whole way — internet even in the canyons and on the coast. Bisha shoots photos and video, so you'll come home with tons of content, and Danila fixes anything that breaks. We love driving, hiking and paddleboarding — if you like an active vacation, you're one of us.
[ ...Menu ]
Our signature dishes on tour
We're all about good food. A US road trip usually means fast food — not with us: Bisha cooks in the RV every day, and it's one of the main reasons people come back.

Stories from our travelers
Every trip leaves warm memories. Here's what our guests say about the trips, the roads and the moments they remember most.
.
Sanobar Rhode Island
“I thought RV life only happened in movies. What a great idea to try something truly American! A personal approach, home cooking, and every stop had its own charm. I especially loved the evening ritual of cooking over the campfire. Feeling a piece of home so far away, surrounded by your own people — that's wonderful.”
Natasha Yellowstone, Oregon
“I travel a lot, and trips with RV Escape are like an awesome summer camp for grown-ups: you never know what's next, but you know it'll be great. You jump into the RV and you're surrounded by beauty and nature, everything is thought through, home cooking, great new friends. I wasn't even scared of the shark in the water — so many emotions! Already waiting for the next tours: Tahoe and the Las Vegas — New York cross-country.”
Nastya Niagara Falls
“A vacation with zero responsibility — a break from work, family, home, life. A camp for grown-ups where you don't have to think about time, the road or tickets. Highly recommend!”
Sergey Niagara Falls
“Loved it! The views are even better than on Instagram. The most memorable moment was stepping into the mist right by the falls, with water splashing your face. Everything was perfectly organized.”
Yulia Burning Man
“I'm thrilled! I can't even find the words for how much I loved it. We slept like at a spa — tasty breakfasts, barbecue, showers, never cold. I made friends with everyone and we still keep in touch. Do it at least once!”
Kostya Burning Man
“Mind-blowing — simply the best experience of my life! Great company, great emotions — we're already planning to come back next year. The comfort of the RV made a huge difference: in a tent it would have been much harder. Good sleep, tasty food — really 100 out of 100, I can't think of anything to improve.”
