25 Best Things To Do in Arizona in 2023

Grand Canyon hike

To say that there are countless things to do in Arizona would be an understatement. I’ve lived in this southwestern US state for three years and have yet to run out of fun things to do.

The best part of Arizona is that it’s home to a diverse landscape including cities, mountains, canyons, deserts, lakes, and rivers. Within a matter of 4 hours, you can drive from the big city of Phoenix to the mountains and lakes in Flagstaff, and arrive at the Grand Canyon.

No matter what you like to do for fun, I am sure Arizona will have something to offer you. There’s just something magical about the desert that makes you want to keep coming back.

1. Hike the Grand Canyon

If I could choose just one thing out of the many things to do in Arizona, I would choose to hike down into the Grand Canyon. I’ve hiked to the bottom of the Canyon 10 times and it never gets old; it’s just as incredible each time.

This activity is best for active nature lovers and adventure addicts. Expect lots of sun exposure and difficult climbs – and remember, going down is optional but coming back up is mandatory!

Pay the national park fee and head into the South Rim of the Grand Canyon to hop onto Bright Angel Trail or South Kaibab Trail. Be sure to prepare well for this activity with plenty of water, snacks, and electrolytes.

2. Guided Tour of Antelope Canyon

I’ll never forget walking through Antelope Canyon for the first time. It feels as though you are in another world as you meander through the smooth and vibrant orange slot canyon.

This activity is a great thing to do in Arizona for families. Come prepared with water, comfortable walking shoes, and a camera so that you can capture every step of the way.
