Arizona is known for its diverse landscape, from the breathtaking depths of the Grand Canyon to the majestic red hillsides of Sedona. But even with all its natural beauty, there’s so much more to the Copper State than what literally meets the eye. Arizona is also home to the trendiest restaurants, hippest bars, biggest adventures, and much more!
So if you are planning your next big getaway, put Arizona at the top of your list and brace yourself for an epic experience.
It’s everywhere, but for sure in Downtown Scottsdale and Central Phoenix along the Camelback corridor. But it’s also in every city and town across the state. Brand name/designer apparel, gifts, jewelry, art, and antique galleries along with one-of-a-kind souvenir stores like Kactus Jock in Scottsdale, you will find them everywhere.
If you have been cooped up at home for the past several months and are raring to explore the outdoors, why not do it in Arizona?
Arizona is vast as it is varied, and it will surely have something in store for you, whether you want a relaxing trip or an adrenaline-pumping adventure. You could admire the scenic desert trails in Phoenix, go hot-air ballooning or play a great round of golf at over 150 courses, all within 30 minutes of the city, or enjoy a leisurely hike, or take on the urban trails of Williams or
Flagstaff on a Fat Tire E-bike.
Things could heat up easily with Arizona’s desert climate, but there are tons of boating and water sports activities for you to do. Just take your pick from one of the several water destinations in the state, including Lake Powell and Lake Havasu.
If you really want to take things up a notch, enjoy the view from the top with a thrilling aerobatic ride!
With all the things that you can see and do in Arizona, it’s hard not to work up an appetite. Fortunately, dining and nightlife is one of the many things that the Grand Canyon state has perfected, aside from sunsets and hiking.
It boasts a long list of culinary destinations, (with a global reputation for fine dining) serving anything and everything you could think of, from timeless classics to new favorites. If you are craving some locally-inspired dishes, head to FnB in Scottsdale. Do you want to try some authentic Japanese cuisine? Fukuda’s Teeter House has an extensive lunch and dinner menu for you to choose from. If it’s classic bars and clubs you are looking for, you won’t have to look very hard to find one that amazes.
With more restaurants than there are stars on the flag, you surely won’t be disappointed, whatever your taste is.
What better way to bookend a fun-filled day than by spending the night out in a bar, many of which are unique? Try lounging in a bar with an epic view, or simply get “cowboy down” in a true western fun – filled atmosphere!
Scottsdale has some of the finest drinks and spirits – from locally brewed beer to desert-inspired cocktails – matched only by the beauty of the sunset above and the stunning city lights below.
Try Scottsdale’s Canopy Hotel Perched, with its romantic fireplaces and comfortable couches, offering an unfettered view of nearby Camelback Mountain and the Arizona sun as it makes way for the stars. You can also go to the Jade bar, birthplace of the cocktail culture in the area.
