10 Best Things To Do In Arizona 2026 | Top10Adventures®

Welcome to Arizona

Arizona, the 48th and last of the contiguous states admitted to the Union, is the essential Southwestern state. The southern part of the state is comprised by the Sonoran Desert ecosystem and is very hot, while the northern reaches include evergreen-forested mountains, ski resorts, and the awesome Grand Canyon. The Old West lives in the natural red rock sculptures of Sedona and the narrow slick rock passages of Antelope Canyon in Navajo country outside of the small town of Page. The Phoenix metropolitan area is one of America’s largest, and golf in Scottsdale is great, but nature is the star in Arizona as desert sunsets frame the iconic silhouette of the Saguaro Cacti unique to Arizona.

Kayaking the Salt River Foxtail Trip

Rochelle_M, Jul 2026

A Must!

We totally loved our kayaking trip and highly recommend it to others. We are a family of 4 with 2 teenagers and no prior kayaking experience (only paddle boarding). The safety video was a bit intense and made my husband nervous, but once on the river all was good. We went on a Sunday and parts of the river were packed with tubers and paddle boarders making it challenging to navigate around, but still doable. Luckily we saw 3 wild horses right at the end of our journey. Amazing!!

Kayak tour with Preston

If you're lucky enough to get Preston as your kayak guide, you're in for an incredible experience. From the moment we started in the van, he was knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely enthusiastic about sharing the area with us. He made everyone feel comfortable on the water, whether they were experienced paddlers or complete beginners.What really stood out was his passion for the local wildlife and environment. He pointed out things we would have completely missed on our own, shared fascinating stories and facts, and answered every question with patience and expertise. His positive energy was contagious and made the entire tour feel relaxed, engaging, and memorable.Preston struck the perfect balance between adventure, safety, and fun. You could tell he truly cares about giving every guest an amazing experience, and he absolutely delivered. This was one of the highlights of our trip, and a huge part of that was thanks to him. He even helps you with photos so you can have proof of your experience ;pI can't recommend Preston highly enough. If you're booking a kayak tour, request him if you can—you'll leave with great memories, a deeper appreciation for the area, and a smile on your face. Five stars isn't enough!
