    Do not hesitate to visit Taliesin West. It is an absolute ‘must see’ for young and old, design students, inquiring minds, history buffs and more.

    A unique view into the mind of Frank Lloyd Wright and his talented students, turning a baron piece of land into an amazing architectural wonder, winter home and design studio.

    There is so much to take in, visually and emotionally as you walk around. An amazing and insightful audio tour guides you from space to space. Light, texture and flow are the result of this masterpiece created out of literally nothing.

    Get there early. Better still, arrive before it opens, that way you can enjoy the amazing views and audio tour in peace before the crowds begin to gather and slow down your experience.

    There is plenty to do around here. Shops on every street, and it's perfect to find tourist gifts. Great place for a photo opt.

    Such an enjoyable Park with lots of railway museum. I went there by myself. I feel lots of people would flock here when cooler weather.

    This preserve has a wide variety of hiking trails, from Easy to Difficult. Lengths vary. The easy trail has a lot of educational signage.

    This is a lovely park but if you decide to hike to the hike it can be steep. You need a lot of water but will be rewarded with marvelous views. No dogs are allowed on trail.

    We visited in January 2023 with a group of five ranging in age 30 to 80. Everyone was impressed and liked the many different displays of the west, nit just Arizona. The Native American sculptures and photos are remarkable. We enjoyed the large murals that obe can step into for a really neat photo.

    50’s adult’s definitely used hiking poles. Bring plenty of water , we brought a backpack. We arrived around 7;15 and parking was fine. Took us about 1 1/2 hours there and an hour back. There are some athletes running the trail. Nice park worker there that took our picture.

    If you love auto racing this is a must. Small but has enough for the racing enthusiast. Free entrance. They would love if you come and browse at the attached luxury dealerships like Ferrari, Bentley and Porsche. Sad they removed the gift shop but still have the small cafeteria where we ate lunch

    Discounted rate after certain time - which was a great deal for our group of 4 to get out of the AZ heat. Great aquarium, we enjoyed the aquarium and hands on encounters.

    Very nice upscale outdoor mall to walk around. The Kierland Quarters across the street has even ore shops and placed to eat. So pretty at night with all the palm trees and the lights on them! It feels magical! I recommend reservations especially in season or on the weekends. Most places to eat are very busy!
