 Sky Harbor Airport by ATXtraveler
Sky Harbor is a hub for both Southwest and America West Airlines, but is also served by all the major domestic airlines as well.
There are only 3 international carriers that come to Phoenix... British Airways, AeroMexico, and Air Jamaica. Leave a Comment

CAR. Phoenix is not known for having great public transportation!
Taxi is fine for short destinations, but for site-seeing, rental car is best. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

This was a wonderful way to get around the historical downtown area free by a neat cool clean trolley car. The Downtown Trolley runs 7 days a week from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm, every 10 min., and visits the most significate places to sightsee. So check it out, my boys loved it! Leave a Comment

although the streets are basically laid out in a grid that includes both scottsdale and phoenix, you must pay attention very carefully to their exact names. the main street running north and south through both is central avenue. the numbered "streets" run east from central avenue. the numbered "avenues" run west from central avenue.
one thing that helps is that in most areas, the street signs are large (even for old people like me whose sight is not so great any more!), mark which way is north/south or east/west, and give house address ranges (for example, 2340-2390 for the house numbers on that block).
it helps to have a map, though, because in one place, i found 70th street right next to 1st street!
practically all parking is free in scottsdale; in downtown phoenix, practically all parking is at coin-operated meters, except for specific large attractions, such as the heard museum. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

The best or maybe only commercial airport to fly in to to get to Scottsdale is Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. PHX is a nice ariport but it is large. If you are renting a car, you should note that you will have to take a shuttle to the car rental building. This can be a pain if you are with children and have plenty of luggage. I recommend that you take a Sedan or SUV service to your hotel and bypass the hassle of carrying your kids and your luggage to the car rental place via a shuttle. You can reserve a sedan or SUV service with Accent Transportation Services and a professional chauffeur will be waiting for you by the baggage claim. The cars are equipped with in-car WiFI, XM Satellite Radio, local news paper and much more. Child car seats are also available upon request. The hospitable service will blow your mind away.

I do and I don't recommend this place. I would have loved to tour Frank Lloyd Wright's desert camp but I was satisfied to see the outside and check out the gift shop and the book store. For my husband, myself, and my 16 year old son to go through on a one hour tour would have been $54 which is not even recommended, they really push the 90 minute tour which would have been $65. It certainly did not stop alot of other people from doing it but that is a bit out of my price range. We went through the Frank Lloyd Wright museum in Oak Park IL some years ago and it did not cost much at all. Anyway, I have seen tours of this place on TV and it is great so if you can afford it I recommend it.
2007 update, on a recent trip to Arizona we decided this time we would take the tour. My husband, myself, and my student son took a 90 minute tour for $59. It was incredible, very informative, and entertaining. The tour takes you through parts of the house, around the grounds, through the auditorium, and into the caberet. You are not allowed into the studios. Leave a Comment

I really enjoyed staying near this area and we frequented the day and night time by strolling around and looking at everything. Everyone was friendly helpful and not frightened by having children wonder in and looking too, so that was nice. There are loads of shops and galleries to explore to take your time. Lots of different restaurants and plenty of nightlife along the trendy blvd. I actually felt safe exploring the streets, which was a nice change. If you like the southwest feel, you'll love this place for sure! Leave a Comment

There are so many wonderful and beautiful galleries to stroll along and see in the old downtown area. Parking along here is not bad at all and not far from the galleries are places to eat at. Hours vary from gallery to gallery, but many are open at night too. Leave a Comment

This was a neat little find while walking along discovering all the wonderful scultpures and stores. I really enjoy exploring along the trendy downtown mall area. The building houses some really historical information of Scottsdale and it worth visiting.
