Arizona Day Trip: Desert Jeep Tours

Riding a jeep driven by Elena Bibbo is a little bit like a theme park ride, and a little like how the settlers felt coming west on a covered wagon.

Two hours from Phoenix is some of the most beautiful scenery in the state - scenery that people come to visit from all over the world. The Phoenix area is lucky enough to be a short 2-hour ride away from Sedona; a quick hop on I-17, and red rock and cooler temperatures await.

Less than one hour North of Phoenix on I-17 is a town called Camp Verde, nestled in a valley.  It doesn’t look like too much from the highway, with the fast food and gas station signs dragging away the driver’s attention.  But the area offers some quite unique things to do.  Even if you’re on the way to Flagstaff, Camp Verde attractions make a good quick-stop on the way.  Take a day or an hour.
