Arizona Vacation Ideas
Try these Arizona vacation ideas to help you plan your trip.
Flagstaff
Flagstaff is the gateway to the Grand Canyon. While most of Arizona is known for its very hot weather, Flagstaff is a higher-elevation city with a more moderate climate. Base your vacation around Flagstaff if you enjoy year-round outdoor activities. More about Flagstaff vacations.
Grand Canyon
The Grand Canyon needs no introduction. This natural wonder defies description. Visitors to the Grand Canyon include photographers, hikers, outdoor enthusiasts, and nature lovers. Even if you aren't in tip-top physical shape, you can still enjoy the canyon by way of flatter hikes near the rim. More about Grand Canyon vacations.
Phoenix
Phoenix is an urban mecca that's geared for sports fans. It isn't what you'd call a beautiful city, but you can find plenty of activities to keep you busy. See a show, watch a baseball game, go dancing, or play golf. It's your choice in Phoenix. More about Phoenix vacations.
Scottsdale
Scottsdale is a few shades classier than its neighbor Phoenix. This is a golf resort community--so if you love to sit by the pool wearing a big floppy hat, try your skill on the golf course, and shop in high-end stores, Scottsdale is a great choice. Read more about Scottsdale vacations.
Sedona
Plan a trip to Sedona if you like art and unique natural geography. Expect to find quirky independent shops and lots of opportunities to explore the surrounding desert and red rock landscape. More about Sedona vacations.
