Road trip from Sacramento to Tucson, what is a good route?
We are traveling with a 15 mo and an almost 4yo so we will have to stop often.
We are also considering stopping for a couple of days somewhere on the coast to enjoy the beach.
We are planning the trip during Easter week.
Any recommendations? TIA

SB I 5 to San Diego. Stop there for a couple days. EB I 8 from San Diego until it ends in Casa Grande and meets with I 10. EB (actually more SB in this area) I 10 to Tucson.

hahaha, I use to live in Sacramento too! Great city. I'm going to agree with sh9730's post, San Diego for the beach and come to Tucson.

No beach involved, Suzie . . .
However, I would recommend East to Reno and South via Las Vegas and The Hoover Damn and then all the way into Tucson.
A simple direct route with some great scenery and the ideal time for a side trip to The Canyon if time allows.

That sound like a great route if we didn't have the little ones.
