Route 66
After departing the Phoenix metro area, our tour travels through the expansive Sonoran Desert filled with the native saguaro cactus. The scenery begins to change as we increase in elevation and views of the cactus fade into pine trees. As we continue further into Northern Arizona, we will travel the outskirts of the Route 66 town of Flagstaff and from the highway, see the San Francisco Peaks among the seemingly endless Ponderosa Pine Forest, the largest contiguous forest of ponderosa pines in the world.

Williams Depot
Williams will be our first stop along the tour for a chance to experience Route 66, the iconic American highway steeped in rich tradition. While in Williams, guests will have the opportunity to “get their kicks on Route 66” with walks along the original route, explore the local shops and capture souvenir photos highlighting a bygone era in classic American history. Also known as the Will Rodgers Highway, Route 66 is the most recognizable road in the United States and stretched 2,448 miles from Chicago to California upon completion.

Our family took the day trip to Sedona and Grand Canyon. Our guide was Memo. He picked us up at our hotel promptly at 0630. We made the drive to Sedona and along the way he gave us tons of info about the flora and fauna of the desert as well as interesting facts about the town of Sedona. He is a wealth of information. After a short stop in Sedona, it was on to the Grand Canyon. We stopped at 3 different spots along the canyon for viewing. In all, we probaly spent 3 hours at the canyon, which was plenty of time since we had no plans for long hikes. Memo did point out a short hike that we would have had time for but we decided against as it was fairly crowded that day. After leaving the canyon, we stopped in Williams, AZ for a look at the last remaining portion of original Route 66. We arrived back in Phoenix around 1900, tired but very satisfied with the tour.
