Depart from the Phoenix-Scottsdale area in the morning and make a first stop in Williams, AZ. Explore the quaint Route 66 town, from its mom and pop shops, to its diner which is home to Arizona’s best slice of pie, Williams is always a delight. Following our time in Williams, we continue onto the Canyon. Take in the magnificent views, a seemingly endless openness that transforms magnificently as you walk along the rim. Check into your hotel and spend the rest of the day on your own overlooking the incredible natural spectacle.

Spend the morning relaxing and taking sunrise photographs over the canyon, or choose to embark on a morning hike. In the early afternoon, start on a driving tour along the rim of the canyon, discovering some of the best views and learning some history along the way. As we make our way back to Phoenix, we make a brief stop in Flagstaff to stretch our legs and grab a bite to eat for the ride home.
