Phoenix & Central Arizona

Bustling Metropolis to Wild West

If you’re looking for a cosmopolitan center where warm sunshine and cool culture collide, Central Arizona is your playground. With the Phoenix area at its heart – including cities from Chandler, in the southeast, to Peoria, in the northwest – Central Arizona is a haven of relaxing resorts and award-winning golf, restaurants, shopping and nightlife.

But Central Arizona has more to offer than the big city – like hiking trails and casinos near Fountain Hills and Fort McDowell, arboretums and botanical gardens and even dude ranches. Learn more about Central Arizona’s top destinations below:

  • Scottsdale
    If you’re looking for a vacation spot that’s as much cowboy as it is couture, you’re in luck in Scottsdale. This scenic desert city is home to posh resorts and spas, dozens of golf courses, and great shopping and dining – but it’s also where you’ll find plenty of Old West charm and Southwestern art and jewelry.

  • Tempe
    Arizona State University may be Tempe’s claim to fame, but there’s plenty going on in this friendly city just south of Phoenix. Boating on Tempe Town Lake, nightlife on Mill Avenue and performances at the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Gammage Auditorium are just a few of our favorite Tempe temptations.

  • Glendale
    Home of the Arizona Cardinals, Glendale is a sports fan’s paradise. In addition to its home teams, Glendale also plays host to the annual Tostitos Fiesta Bowl and has served as a Super Bowl site.

  • Wickenburg
    City slickers are welcome in this Western enclave – but prepare to get your hands dirty and your boots dusty. Located around 60 miles northwest of Phoenix, Wickenburg feels a million miles away from the bustle of the city. Known for its working ranches – where visitors can ride, camp and work with real ranch hands – you’ll fall in love with the friendly folk and campfire fun here. Learn more about Wickenburg, Arizona >>
