Itinerary

  1. Walnut Canyon National Monument is a scenic canyon near Flagstaff known for its well-preserved ancient cliff dwellings built by the Sinagua people over 700 years ago. Visitors can explore winding trails along the canyon walls, offering stunning views and a unique glimpse into early Native American life and culture.

  2. Meteor Crater Natural Landmark is one of the world’s best-preserved meteorite impact sites, formed approximately 50,000 years ago when a massive iron meteor struck the Earth. Located in the high desert of northern Arizona, the crater measures nearly one mile (1.2 km) wide and over 550 feet (170 meters) deep, creating a dramatic and otherworldly landscape.

  3. Winslow is a historic Route 66 town in northern Arizona known for its classic Americana charm and cultural significance. Once a major stop along the iconic highway, Winslow has become a nostalgic destination that captures the spirit of old-road travel in the American Southwest.

  4. The tour concludes with a relaxing drive south, leaving Northern Arizona behind as you head back down to Phoenix.
