As you leave the bustling city of Los Angeles for the laid-back yet exciting city of Phoenix, you should get ready to explore the diversity and long history of the metropolitan area. The Valley of the Sun is known for its natural beauty, which is showcased at attractions such as the Phoenix Botanical Gardens.
Other great destinations, like the Painted Desert and Meteor Crater, are just a short drive away from the Phoenix airport. If you'd prefer a more leisurely start to your stay in Phoenix, you can stop by South Mountain Park, which offers the opportunity to observe and explore desert plants and animals.
From Phoenix, you can take a short drive to Tombstone or Flagstaff, where the Lowell Observatory is located. During your time in Phoenix, you can park your rental car and enjoy a game of the Arizona Diamondbacks, Coyotes or the Phoenix Mercury Women's Professional Basketball League.
Your trip from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) should take about an hour. Once you've picked up your luggage and selected your rental car, you can take a quick drive to Montezuma's Castle or Phoenix Mountains Park. Phoenix is also a great place to start your drive to the Grand Canyon or the Petrified Forest National Park.
