Phoenix Vacations and Tour Packages

Phoenix, United States

Overview

Take a trip to Phoenix on your United States Vacation

Arizona is a place of inspiration, and in its capital, Phoenix, that inspiration comes to life through top art galleries, unique museums, gardens, and desert adventures. If you're a golf enthusiast, there's no better place in the United States for a round. Whether you use Phoenix as a gateway to explore the desert or for a city break, it has much to offer.

Explore Arizona's ecosystem at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, where you can follow five different trails. Take a trail in Papago Park to reach the Hole in the Rock, offering excellent views of the city. Don't forget to visit the Phoenix Zoo, a massive non-profit zoo with numerous walking trails and a wide variety of species. If you seek a challenge, consider hiking the Echo Canyon Trail on Camelback Mountain.

While Sedona is known for art galleries, Phoenix has a remarkable art scene. Start at the Phoenix Art Museum, which houses over 18,000 works from around the world in a modern building. For a more specialized experience, visit the Heard Museum, dedicated to Native American art.

Phoenix is home to unique niche museums, like the Musical Instrument Museum, with a collection of over 6,000 instruments, including John Lennon's 'Imagine' piano. The Hall of Flame Museum of Firefighting is an intriguing look at the history of firefighting in one of North America's hottest and driest regions.

Architecture enthusiasts will appreciate Phoenix's memorable homes, including the hand-built Mystery Castle and Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West.

While exploring Phoenix's outdoor attractions is enjoyable, it's good to have indoor options for the hottest days. Remember to stay hydrated, wear sunscreen, and use a hat, even in the cooler months. Be prepared and make the most of your time in this sunny city.

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

Mahalo Goway Travel for helping in planning our group Japan's trip. Lawrence was very helpful & patient with all the changes & additions we did. Also, mahalo to Natasa who helped planned my Australia trip past November. The planning from transportation to tours to hotels worked very smoothly.

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas

We were just back from an ambitious 42-day grand circle through seven of the ASEAN countries! An itinerary gestating over a period of time, carefully planned and pore over intently all the way through proved satisfying as expected, but the amazing "embarras de richesse" in six weeks such as we've never experienced before truly went beyond our imagination, both in terms of scenery and culture! The vast majority of the local teams who work with Goway provided impressive service throughout our stay, and quite a number of the guides and drivers deserve to be called cream of the crop in their line of work. But ultimately, we owe our destination specialist Taryn a profound gratitude for her insight and for her coordination efforts which made all this possible. When our debit card was not retrievable in an airport ATM Taryn again went out of her way to approve a small loan through transfer to our local guide's bank account, who then withdrew cash from an ATM while we simply paid Goway Travel by credit card through an online payment link. This helped us tremendously through that difficult moment. We will always treasure this kindness on her part.Yuan Lin

Alice was most helpful - full of insider suggestions. She was a good listener and able to provide tours, routes and guides tailored to our interests. She made our February trip to New Zealand entirely wonderful. Marlene
