Phoenix can be as affordable or as luxurious as you choose. While neighbouring Scottsdale is known for its upscale resorts, there are plenty of ways to experience the region without stretching your budget. Many of Phoenix's top attractions, including Papago Park and South Mountain Park, are free to visit.

Phoenix Airport is just a short drive from the city centre, with taxis and shuttle services available.

Within the city, the Valley Metro light rail connects key areas, while local bus services provide affordable transport throughout the region. Scottsdale's Old Town district is particularly easy to explore on foot.
