Places
Looking for somewhere to visit in AZ?
The Grand Canyon is BREATH TAKING. Pictures don't do it justice. If you find yourself in Arizona you have to make the trip up north
The nightlife in downtown Phoenix is so fun!! Downtown Phoenix also has first friday art walks!
Oldtown Scottsdale has a western feel during the day and turns into a party scene at night!
Flagstaff is a small town in Northern Arizona and has some of the prettiest views in AZ. It is a college town which can be super fun at night! Downtown Flagstaff is super walkable and has many different bars and resturaunts
Black Canyon is a small stop between Phoenix and Flagstaff. They have some of the best pie I have every had! They also offer different activies such as renting ATVs!
Tempe has great views and offers a variety of restaurant and bar options. Be warned ASU is the heart of Tempe so it can be crowded!
Lake Pleasant is a great way to beat the AZ heat. Not only are there activities such as: paddle boarding, kayaking, boating, and water slides there is also great food. (my fave is the fried pickles at Dillions)
Sedona, Arizona is arguably the most beautiful town in AZ. The red rocks are something you can't even imagine unless you see it with your own eyes. There is so much to do in Sedona. Slide rock is a great place for cliff jumping and swimming. SOOOO ma...
Shopping
Fashion Square is a great mix of luxury brands and normal retail stores. It has a little bit of everything. There are also good food options ranging from the food court to higher end restaurants near by.
Arrowhead is another large mall in West Phoenix. Less luxury and more typical retail options.
A typical outlet mall with some luxury brands.
Tanger outlets is the best outlet mall in AZ (in my opinion) A great mix of luxury and retail. They have typical food court options but there are many great restaurants super close by you can walk too.
Desert Ridge is a smaller outdoor mall in Phoenix but it is a nice place to visit. There are pretty decent retail options, great food and bar options.
Scottsdale Quarter is a cute little mall with some decent shopping options and great food options.
Activities
Top Golf is always a fun activity! Great food and drinks! If you're lucky you'll catch one of Arizona's amazing sunsets
Popstroke is a newer addition to AZ but it is so fun!! I would avoid going June-August since it is outdoors. They have great food, and drinks. They have QR codes throughout the course so you can have a drink brought right to you.
Phoenix Zoo can be fun for all ages!! During holiday time they also have zoo lights!
This zoo is so fun! I prefer this one of the Phoenix Zoo! More aquatics
Odysea is so fun! Great place to visit in the summer and avoid the heat
