Restaurant Recommendations
Old Town Scottsdale is FULL of great restaurants. Postino, Cold Beers and Cheeseburgers, and Farm and Craft are some of our favorites. The Montauk, Diego Pops, Culinary Dropout, and Olive & Ivy are also fan favorites. Check out Toca Madera, Bourbon and Bones, or Ocean 44 if you're looking to ball out! Arcadia: We love the brewery OHSO, the porch, the henry, north italia, and la grande orange. Arcadia is such a cute neighborhood with great restaurants.
Wrigley Mansion
A beautiful tour filled with some fun history, and you can grab some lunch where a menu highlight is a SPAM sandwich! :) The mansion has beautiful views of the valley and offers Happy Hour on the deck overlooking the city of Phoenix!
Taliesin West
If you're into architecture, this place is absolutely beautiful!
Apache Trail
The existing Apache Trail in Arizona is a 120 mile circle route through the Superstition Mountains. It was named the Apache Trail after the Native American Indian s who originally used this trail to migrate through the Superstition Mountains for over 1,000 years. This can be an 8 hour drive that includes a tour of an old western town; lunch along the way at Tortilla Flat Saloon; many scenic stops at sight seeing view point and ending at the Roosevelt Dam. Truly breathtaking!
Buffalo Chip Saloon and Steakhouse
This place has some great live music and dancing! Some nights there is even some live bull riding that you can pay to ride if you feel like being that wild!
Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center
If you love wild animals, this is your spot! It's a great rescue organization.
Arizona Biltmore, A Waldorf Astoria Resort
Great tour to find where the rich and famous stay while in town. They offer a daytime tour or a happy hour tour starting with champagne and ending with the ever famous Tequila Sunrise.
Outdoors
Arizona is a beautiful state! We love hiking around. The mountains in the valley to hike are the Phoenix Mountain Range, Camelback Mountain, McDowell Mountain Range, and South Mountain. If you're interested in a drive, we love the Superstition Mountains. If you're into water sports, there are also plenty of lakes around the valley. In addition, you could rent paddle boards or kayaks and go along the Salt River to see the wild horses.
Up North
If you want to make a trip out of your Arizona visit, we are home to some beautiful sites. We have beautiful towns like Prescott, Payson (Mogollon Rim), Sedona, and Flagstaff! There are also beautiful sites like Horseshoe Bend, Antelope Canyon, and the Grand Canyon.
