Description:

Relish in the countless attractions unique to Arizona such as the historic mining town of Jerome and famous cliff dwellings at Montezuma Castle. Knowledgeable tour guides illustrate the Sedona Desert's vibrant red rocks and canyons like you've never seen them before.

The tour begins at Montezuma Castle the oldest national monument in the United States. Nestled in a towering limestone cliff, this 20-room, high-rise-style dwelling dates back to 700 AD. Marvel at the Sinagua culture and learn their story of ingenuity and survival in an unforgiving desert land.

As you continue towards Sedona, take in the horizon of vibrantly colored red rocks. Keep your eyes open for wildlife as you pass through the Oak Creek Canyon. Stop at the stunning Chapel of the Holy Cross, a Roman Catholic Church set at the top of a cliff overlooking the surrounding valley.

Arrive in uptown Sedona and take a break at one of the city's many restaurants if your feet need a rest. If you're up for more, enjoy the wide variety of shopping boutiques or venture to one of the 50 Southwestern art galleries.

Your last stop is the historic mining town of Jerome, once a ghost town after the collapse of copper mining but now a revitalized community with bed-and-breakfasts, art galleries, and copper industry museums. This town sits at just about a mile (1.6 km) above sea level, making it the opportune location for breathtaking photos.
