Phoenix and Scottsdale both offer a lot of attractions, and this half-day tour will ensure you see all the major sights in both locations. On this Phoenix half-day tour, you’ll explore Arizona’s most populous county, Maricopa. With the Sonoran Desert serving as your backdrop for this Scottsdale half-day tour, you’ll make your way to Papago Park, the Arizona Biltmore, and other notable destinations across the county.
Expect to see plenty of architecture, art, and nature on this Scottsdale half-day tour. Scottsdale is often referred to as a desert version of Miami Beach; the city features many bars and clubs that are open into the wee hours of the night. One of the major highlights on this Scottsdale tour is Old Town Scottsdale, which is unique from other areas in town. This particular part of Scottsdale is reminiscent of the cowboy era. The old fashion stores, restaurants, and saloons evoke a sense of nostalgia. Old Town Scottsdale is also home to Scottsdale Fashion Square Mall, one of the 20 largest malls in the country.
Phoenix, the state’s capital, has its own share of must-see attractions, like Papago Park. Papago Park is known for the famous "hole in the rock," a red sandstone rock formation with several large openings called "tafoni" formed by erosion, and the sandstone buttes of the Valley of the Sun. Enjoy the spectacular views towards Phoenix, Mesa and Tempe. Downtown Phoenix is another stop on your tour. This section of the city is a sports fan’s paradise: both Chase Field (baseball) and U.S Airways Center (basketball) are located there.
