Williams will provide a Route 66 passport

The Main Street organization of Williams, Ariz., will provide special Route 66 passports for Mother Road travelers next week, according to the Williams-Grand Canyon News.

Route 66 communities from throughout the state are featured in the special promotional tool, said Kim Kadletz of the Williams Main Street Association. […]

“The passports will be at each visitor center, including our own,” he said. “Customers can pick this up for free. Some of the cities have stamps, as does ours and (travelers) qualify for some type of prize. The whole basis is for them to come to our town and do more shopping.”

Besides having their passports stamped in various Route 66 communities, coupons may also be added to the passports, which can be slipped inside the pages to help draw visitors to particular area businesses.

Samples of the passport were provided at the Arizona Historic Route 66 Fun Run earlier this month. Kadletz said the passports will be available for travelers beginning on May 27.

  1. Will these be available at the AZ Visitor Center when you cross over the New Mexico border? I’m starting Route 66 next week and would like to pick one up when I hit AZ.

  2. That sounds great, I enjoy collecting travel passports. I would love to have a NM RT 66 Passport. I think every 66 state/community should adapt this type of tourism program.
