Newcomers to Phoenix, Arizona, may well believe that their goose is cooked. Let there be no mistake, Phoenix is a city in the sun, and no luxurious trappings are going to keep you from breaking a sweat.
Although it's the largest city in the southwest, Phoenix's greatest attraction is the land that surrounds it: a vast expanse of untamed desert. As the state capital, Phoenix is as modern as any American metropolis, with an active arts scene.
Our complete list of things to see & do in Phoenix
Grand Canyon: West Rim Adventure
From USD $580.00
A helicopter flight down to the Grand Canyon floor, a walk to the river's edge, a smooth-water boat ride on the Colorado River, a scenic flight back to Phoenix. It doesn't get any better than this.
Suggested Itineraries: Phoenix
While the period from October to May is dotted with community events in Phoenix, the city comes to a cultural standstill during the searing summer.
Late January and early February catch residents of Scottsdale dusting off their chaps and Stetsons for a string of rodeos, hoedowns, Pony Express reenactments and an All-Arabian Horse Show. In mid-March, the Phoenix Rodeo of Rodeos is held at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
The costumed Yaqui Indian Easter Ceremonies are held Friday afternoons during Lent in the main plaza of the village of Guadalupe, just south of Tempe.
