Travel To Arizona
Travel to Arizona by airlines: Both Phoenix and Tucson have international airports served by the major airlines. The Flagstaff airport is served by US Airways Express and Horizon Air, but most fly-in visitors fly to Phoenix and rent a car, or take a shuttle to Flagstaff or Sedona. The Sedona airport serves general aviation, including local helicopter and airplane tour companies.. Travel by car: The interstate highway system will get you here effortlessly Travel by way of Interstate 40: This highway traverses the northern part of the state between New Mexico and California. I-40 goes through Flagstaff. Sedona is a half-hour south of Flagstaff.
Travel by way of Interstate 10: I-10 traverses the southern part of the state, also between New Mexico and California. Interstate 17 connects these two major east - west highways. Interstate 17 connects with Interstate 10 in Phoenix, and with Interstate 40 in Flagstaff.
Interstate17 runs through the heart of South of Flagstaff. This is a beautiful area in the shadow of the San Francisco Peaks. Pine forests and open mountain meadows add to the beauty and tranquility of the area. Sedona is just off I-17. Keep an eye out for elk, deer, turkey, and other wildlife as you drive and hike through the tall, green forest. Or... they might come down to the meadows to see you!
These seven bull elk spent several weeks in the big meadow at The elk are magnificent,
regal creatures... but they are also sneaky. They'll hang out just beyond your
back yard in the evening and Wildlife is a common sight all around the area. By the way, the trout fishing is pretty good too. If you're looking for the best deal you can find...

Grand Canyon and Sedona are world famous, so I don't need to tell you about them here,
but have you visited some of the other scenic locations... like Monument Valley? Monument Valley is on the Navajo Reservation, north of Flagstaff. You've seen it in hundreds of Western movies. It helped make John Wayne a star. This larger-than-life landscape is awe inspiring.
Four Corners is north - east of Flagstaff, beyond the turn off to Monument Valley. This is the only place where four states come together. It's also the place where you will see adults having their photograph taken while they pose on their hands and knees, one in each of the four states. The Painted Desert and Petrified Forest are east of Flagstaff, along Interstate 40. Here you'll see sand of many pastel colors layered one upon another. You'll also see ancient trees turned to stone (no, they're not still standing). If you like staying at a luxury resort then Sedona's resorts are for you.
