Past Lane Travels Joins Push To Promote America 250 Travel
There’s no better way to celebrate America’s 250th birthday than with travel
to the historic small towns and hidden gems that helped shape our nation.
Past Lane Travels, a leading history and travel platform dedicated to America’s historic destinations, is proud to announce its cooperation with Freedom 250, the national nonpartisan initiative established by Congress to lead the commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
Through this effort, Past Lane Travels will help inspire Americans to explore the places where the nation’s story unfolded—highlighting Revolutionary War sites, historic small towns, hidden gems, and the landscapes that shaped the birth of the United States.
With a mission to encourage meaningful travel experiences rooted in history, Past Lane Travels will share curated itineraries, storytelling, and destination guides that bring America’s founding era to life.
Founded by award-winning historical fiction author and travel writer Jessica James, Past Lane Travels has become a trusted resource for travelers seeking to walk in the footsteps of America’s founders and heroes.
Through blog features, newsletters, social media campaigns, and special projects tied to the 250th anniversary, the platform will help connect modern travelers with the people, places, and stories that shaped the nation.

“As our nation approaches its 250th anniversary, there has never been a more meaningful time to rediscover the places where America’s story began,” said Jessica James. “Through Past Lane Travels, I hope to inspire people to step beyond the history books and experience these remarkable places firsthand—walking the same streets, visiting the small towns, and even dining in the same taverns —where the ideals of liberty were forged.”
James added, “Travel has a unique power to make history come alive. My hope is that families, history lovers, and patriots across the country will feel inspired to explore America’s heritage and celebrate the courage of those who built this nation.”
In conjunction with this initiative, James has released a new travel resource designed to guide readers through the nation’s founding story. The Patriot’s Journey: 250 Sites to Visit for America 250 is now available in a convenient ebook format, as well as coil-bound, and softcover for those who prefer printed books. The book offers curated collection of historic destinations across the country.
The book provides travelers with an easy-to-use guide to Revolutionary War sites, historic towns, and lesser-known locations, making it a timely companion for those looking to explore America’s past during the 250th anniversary years.
Any DMO’s or related public relations organizations who are interested in sponsoring a page in the book or purchasing copies at a wholesale rate can contact James at jessica@pastlanetravels.com.
