The capital of the Grand Canyon State, Arizona, Phoenix lies in the centre of the aptly named - because of the intense heat - Valley of the Sun, and can be reached by air with direct from London with British Airways, or by using one of the many American Airlines and stopping off somewhere else on the way, especially since Las Vegas and Los Angeles can be reached by air in a little over one hour.
Offering great shopping, a stunning climate, and plenty of attractions, Phoenix and Scottsdale are great places to visit, whether as holiday destinations in their own right, or as the starting point for a longer self drive holiday around the beautiful desert scenery of the deserts of the South West USA.
You can get cheap deals on flights to Phoenix throughout the year, and once there, with low prices on car rental and accommodation available, like the rest of the United States of America, the cities are excellent value for money, and a visit to this part of the country is an excellent introduction to a different side of America, away from the most popular tourism destinations and a place that you can get a real insight into the pioneering "can-do" idealism that makes the people of this vast, wealthy country push themselves to achieve what they have - made the desert bloom with flowers and green with golf courses.
