First, we recommend the beauty of the Desert Botanical Garden.

Next, Old Town Scottsdale is perfect for those who love to shop or want to find that perfect souvenir. Shops are open day and night for that ideal shopping. It’s here where you can purchase Native American jewelry or eat at one of their renowned restaurants. Rent a bike, have a spa day, admire the local art, eat the local fare. Whatever you can imagine is here in Old Town. You won’t want to miss it. Just a short drive from Phoenix, not far at all.

The Heard Museum is a fantastic choice as well, as their mission is to advance the art of Native Americans. They specialize in art from Native Americans of the Southwest but also collaborate with artists and tribal communities all over the country to bring you one of the largest and most cohesive collections of Native American art in the country. Not only does this museum showcase breathtaking native art, they also include personal stories from a first-person perspective. They have both contemporary and traditional artwork on display. The mission of this museum is to be the premier museum for American Indian art, and we daresay they are well on their way.

Finally, the Arizona Science Center is sure to knock your socks off. Bring the whole family or go by yourself, this science center is fun for all ages. Their exhibits include All About Me, learning how our bodies work, Flight Zone, where you’ll learn about the science of flight together with Arizona’s flight history, and Forces of Nature, which allows you to experience a hurricane, a tornado, or a wildfire, all within their Immersion Theater!
