Itinerary
EXPLORE PHOENIX
We know you’re here to golf, but as Visit Arizona reminds us, this state is home to “food worth traveling for.” Phoenix is a great place to sample a large variety of flavors: from farm-to-table eats to classic fare like the Sonoran hot dog. Over 100 craft breweries are located within greater city limits, too. Just don’t overdo it—tomorrow you’ll be working hard to burn off those bacon-wrapped dogs.
GOLF PHOENIX
On your first full day in Arizona, get a hole-in-one at a local course. As we mentioned, there are a mind-boggling number of courses to choose from, so let us help you narrow it down. Perhaps you’ll pick one of Arizona’s most unique fairways, like the Grayhawk Golf Club, known for its notoriously challenging par 5. Alternatively, you might select the TPC Scottsdale Stadium Course, where the fan-favorite Waste Management Phoenix Open is held every year. Of course, you really can’t go wrong today—all 200 local fairways are sure to have beautiful scenery and temperate weather in common.
