Arizona: Mix'n'Match

Tuesday July 8, 2008
So much to do in Arizona! So why not do a couple of things on one trip?

photo from Monument Valley photo ©  Teresa Plowright Say, Monument Valley: international tourists flock here, it's "Awesome" in the old sense of the word. Visit with a Navajo Guide: you'll see more, and learn about the Navajo way of life.

Then mix it up: go houseboat on Lake Powell (which has its own awesome scenery, in a flooded canyon.) Take an easy river float down the Colorado River. Or a whitewater river trip through the Grand Canyon. Or ride the Grand Canyon Railway, from the great little town of Williams Arizona (Route 66 plus Wild West...)

(And if you want easy logistics: Detours of Arizona does small-group guided tours, and custom tours that go where you want.)
