The Desert Botanical Gardens are beautiful and a fun outdoor activity that is also great for kids.
This is one of our FAVORITE activities as a couple. The Gilbert farmers market is on Saturday mornings from 7am-11am. There are food trucks and many different booths to check out! Downtown Gilbert is also a very fun option for shopping, food, and drinks!
The Phoenix Zoo is a fun outdoor activity, great for kids, and adults!
If you are looking for an active option, this is a very fun and well known hike in AZ, other than Camelback mountain. This hike is known as the "hole in the rock". Awesome photo opportunity, but you'll have to work for it!
Looking for some good food, drink, and shopping? Downtown Scottsdale has some fun western style shopping and great food options! Some weekends they also have a farmers market and art fairs (will update closer to event more details)
