Attend WrestleMania XXVI at University of Phoenix Stadium

Welcome back to USA Travel Guide. Two opening thoughts:

Can you believe that hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, of all people, was the first to break the news?
I love John Cena. The man can wrestle, he can act, he can crack a [...]

2010 Fiesta Bowl Hotels in Phoenix, Arizona

The tickets are gone, but it’s not too late to get your hotel rooms in Phoenix, Arizona for the 2010 Fiesta Bowl at University of Phoenix Stadium.*
I let on in the past that I’m no college football expert (or in fact, an expert of any sport unless you count competitive Call of Duty), so we [...]

Holiday Events in Phoenix, Arizona – Rawhide Western Town

When we wrote about Rawhide Western Town nearly a year ago now, they called it Rawhide at Wild Horse Pass, and their sign was a fair bit more charming, too. But changing the name doesn’t change the fact that Rawhide is still a fun afternoon excursion for anyone in the Phoenix area. So happens it’s [...]

Pueblo Grande and Indian Market – Things to Do in Phoenix, Arizona

Another cool thing about Phoenix is the Pueblo Grande Museum and Archeological Park. This ancient village of the Hohokam people features houses, offices and canals dated back more than 1500 years, with more yet to be discovered. While the tour sections have been preserved for the purpose of receiving guests, Pueblo Grande is still an active dig.

Visit the Heard Museum in Phoenix, Arizona

Those summer highs in Phoenix haven’t started to abate just yet (I think it got up to 108 on Tuesday), so if you’re in town you’ll definitely want to do something inside. Really, it was only a matter of time before we got to magnanimous Heard Museum.
One of the earliest cultural landmarks in Phoenix, Arizona, [...]

The largest water park in Arizona, and clean as it will [...]

Outdoor Adventure – Piestewa Peak in Phoenix, Arizona

In how many places can you climb a mountain without leaving the city limits? And don’t start ringing off a bunch of towns already in the mountains. That’s cheating.
On the other hand, if you said “Phoenix, Arizona” you’d be right on the money! That’s because this vibrant Sonoran Desert city is home to Piestewa Peak [...]

Top American Zoos – The Phoenix Zoo

In the wake of our notorious article, “The Top 10 Zoos in America“, we more or less let our individual zoo articles fall by the wayside. But no more! We’re coming back strong with our choice as the #4 zoo in America: The Phoenix Zoo.
You might not place your finger on it immediately, but you’ll [...]

Spring Break Golf Vacations – Phoenix, Arizona

I gave you beaches, mountains, adventure, and a little bit of everything else. Yet, I still managed to overlook one of the biggest Spring Break activities of all: golf.
Whether it’s college friends, fathers and sons, or even whole families, more and more people are spending their week away from the real world out on the fairway, and [...]

Phoenix Golf Vacations – The Right Place at the Right Time

Trolling over the archives I realized that we hadn’t done much lately for the golfers in the audience, and with the temperatures warming up quickly over the next couple of months, not to mention Spring Break just around the corner, the time seemed right.

Since the temperature likes to hover above one hundred degrees in the [...]
