I'm planning our Sedona trip for next month. We are staying at Hyatt PP.
On the to-do list already:
* Town sponsored kids event and trolley tour
* Jeep tour
* Day trip to Camp Verde Valley - wildlife park.
* Day trip to Flagstaff - explore area and treetop obstacle course
Need help with Grand Canyon: Complete honesty here....it isn't high on my to-do list, but I feel since we are close we really should. I was hoping to find a helicopter tour out of Sedona, but no luck. Can find group "van" tours and of course we could drive ourselves. Any suggestions?
Up for consideration is train ride, horseback riding and star gazing tour.
We are family of 3 that are active with 11 YO child.
Other things I'm thinking about:
* Any grocery delivery service in area? I have tried to google, called resort and nothing.
* We are flying in/out of PHX....would it be worth it to leave Sedona a day early (or arrive a day later) to see stay in another part of AZ for a night?
Any insight, suggestions or just your two cents welcome!
Expect you have it on your list, but don't forget a day of visiting and/or hiking the various red rock formations there in Sedona. Will second the motion for a visit to Jerome as its a neat little town and is easy/quick to get to. We felt the same way about the Grand Canyon - being so close, we had to go (just drove up). Was there in middle of July and was not a good day at the GC - could barely see the other side due to haziness. Staying at HPP, you'll be able to star gaze each night from the pool/common area. The view out over the valley during the day from the pool area is pretty nice. If you're adventurous (and comfortable with driving off road yourself), rent your own jeep for 4+/- hours for the various off road tours in lieu doing the Pink Jeep. AZ has a lot to see/offer, but Sedona is a wonderful place to spend a week, so I wouldn't cut the stay short to visit another location.
