They call Arizona 'The Grand Canyon State'....which kind of focuses all the attention in one little corner and ignores all the other wonderful things about it. Yes, the Grand Canyon is a must-see sight if you're ever compiling a bucket list. But this is a big state, with lots of other unmissable places to go and memorable things to see. And it all happens under a blanket of warm sunshine, making Arizona holidays a hit all year round.
If you've ever wanted to see those classic desert landscapes of red rock canyons and giant cacti silhouetted against a blazing sun, this is the place to do it. The Sonoran Desert spreads its fiery fingers over much of the state, and makes for some stunning landscapes. You can take jeep trips across endless plateaus studded with striking rock formations; hike the trails up into the mountains; explore caverns; discover the lakes along the Apache Trail; or take a bird's eye view of everything from a hot air balloon.
But there's sophistication in the heart of the desert too, with three major cities - two of which, Phoenix and Scottsdale, are right next-door to each other. Tucson retains some of the spirit of the Old West and is home to the amazing Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, plus fantastic Mexican food; Phoenix has everything you'd expect of a bustling state capital, including great culture and the must-see American Indian Heard Museum; and Scottsdale pulses with some of the best shopping and night-life you'll find anywhere.
Other highlights of Arizona holidays include easy access to an endless swathe of emerald green golf courses, and some superb spas where you can book a treatment, lie back, and relax. So not only do Arizona holidays make you feel good - they can make you look good too!
