Arizona is a little gem, and it is perfect for a short break or a longer adventure. In Arizona, you can head off and explore all that nature has to offer by taking a hike through the canyons and many valleys that await.
The Amazing and Beautiful Canyons
One epic thing you must do when you visit Arizona is to head on one of the many antelope canyon tours. This way, you can feel up close what it is like to be surrounded by beautiful canyons. Exploring the canyons both inside and outside (in a small group or a larger one, if you prefer) can give you the time and comfort to explore at a pace that is comfortable for you. These fantastic, majestic canyons provide the perfect scenic backdrop for those awesome vacation pictures.
Meteor Crater Landmark
If you fancy seeing the world’s best-preserved meteor crater, then you are in luck. Being able to stand and take in the size of the impact can leave you feeling very small yet in awe at the same time. On the observation platform you get a feel for how wide (and deep) the crater is. This adventure is perfect for filling in a morning or an afternoon, and, as it is open daily, you should be able to fit this landmark into even the busiest of itineraries.
Monument Valley
This is a park that features beautiful and outstanding natural beauty. On your journey through exploration, you will want to visit this park, especially if you are a nature lover as there is plenty to see and spot. Towering sandstone buttes and cliffs make for an awesome backdrop, even if you are only visiting with the family for a day. In this Navajo park, you can take in all of the beautiful sites such as The Three Sisters, while getting the perfect photo opportunities at every turn.
Hot Springs
If you fancy a day of relaxing and pampering yourself, then Arizona can accommodate this too. There are lots of hot springs which you can visit, and these will leave you feeling both refreshed and rejuvenated. Arizona’s hot springs are known for beautiful settings and for warm temperatures all year round. Taking in the enriching mineral water while relaxing and taking in beautiful views and surroundings is the perfect way to spend a few hours.
Thinking About the Time of Year to Travel
Arizona is no different from other destinations in terms of its weather. You will find that there are some months and seasons when it is better to visit than others. For example, in the summer months, you will find that every attraction or sight is open, but you may find that they are busy, and you have to wait and queue. To make the most of Arizona you may want to consider visiting in the Spring time when the weather is slightly cooler. You will most likely still get blue skies, but you will also still get plenty of flora and fauna too.
