From Phoenix to the Grand Canyon South Rim and Sedona – Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona

EXPERIENCE

We leave from Scottsdale/Phoenix and immediately outside the city, we start to see the wonderful Sonoran Desert and all the green cacti canvassing the scenery. Our first stop an hour and a half later, will be at Camp Verde for a quick 15-minute break. 30 minutes away is our first official stop at the wonderous Bell Rock Vista, which they say is one of the energetic vortexes in Sedona. Our quick hike up to the base will give you that energetic and good aura about the whole area and you can just take the ravishing beauty all in. The 911 Memorial in front of firehouse station #6 will be our next stop to pay respects and see the beam they brought back from one of the twin towers. Next, we’ll be visiting the magnificent Chapel of the Holy Cross, and they say this is another vortex spot. So just outside of the entrance, they have this huge photography spot where you can take pristine pictures. Everyone is normally famished by now, so we go to the most popular spot in Sedona called Uptown. This is where all the restaurant, art galleries and gift shops are at. We will be eating and doing a little shopping. The backroad through the magical Oak Creek Canyon to Flagstaff is very eye catching and wonderful. We drive through the green ponderosa pine trees and the snowcapped mountains of Flagstaff. Then we arrive at the Grand Canyon Village and see the wonderful viewpoints, Kolb Studio and the gift shop. Next place we visit is the Yavapai Point, more scenic viewpoints and the Geology Museum. We stay here for a couple hours before leaving back to Phoenix.
