Find the Ultimate Travel Playlists for Every Person Right Here

Did you ever notice how the right music on a road trip makes the trip so much more fun? Or when you hear the same song years later, you are reminded of that time of your life.

For me, whenever I hear the song Two Of Us by The Beatles, I go back to the road trip my sister, and I took right after graduation. We played it on repeat on the way home from our two-week adventure.

The right music will also make your time on the road fly right by. You can get so distracted by the music that you won’t realize you’ve gone two hours already. That is why before any trip, I always create a travel playlist.

The only problem with listening to the radio on a road trip is all the commercials and static, and you drive through their listening area. That’s why I love syncing my phone up to the car and listening to a created playlists.

But what if you don’t own a bunch of songs. That’s not a problem if you have an Amazon Prime Membership. They have tens of millions of albums and songs to download for free as part of your subscription.

They include a lot of favorite artists, including the Beatles and some new release albums. The music can be downloaded on the Amazon Music app and then listen to at any time, commercial free.

How to create your own ultimate Road Trip Playlist?

But what if you don’t like their playlists? No problem, create your own. Download the best travel songs you like to listen to and create an individual travel playlist of music for your particular road trip.

Headed south, maybe you’ll want a Route 66 Road Trip Playlist. Or perhaps music for Orlando filled with Disney Classics. Making a Nashville Trip, download some of the best Country tracks.

Create a list for some of the things you do when you get there, like Climbing a Mountain, Biking the Trails. The sky is the limit.

Collect a good mix of music for the region that you’re traveling too. If you know the length of the trip, factor that in too. That way you don’t run out of music halfway through.

Want to Unlock More Great Music?

The Amazon Library is enormous, but some of the songs are hidden behind the Music Unlimited Membership. For under eight dollars a month you can unlock even more music, on demand and always ad-free. You’ll be able to download all the ultimate road trip playlist.
