Flowers, birds, and verdant hues announce spring.
Arizona
Arizona has a lot more to see than idle tumbleweeds and cactus-lined desert roads. In fact, the southwestern state is home to some of the globe’s most spectacular natural landscapes, including the breathtaking Grand Canyon. Trying to comprehend the vastness of nature’s forces in this colorful canyon is nothing short of mind boggling. Equally stunning are the dramatic red rock buttes and pinnacles that cradle the state’s splendid new-age town of Sedona. Pleasant temperatures are the main reason to go in spring – the heat can be positively scorching in summer – but we also love the season for the wildflowers, like the sweet white blossoms that bloom on saguaro cacti, that you’ll see en-route.
