Lived in AZ for years and definitely miss trips to Sedona. It’s a magical place to visit. Great to see it again in this video!

@kelp71 3 ай бұрын

I went. Would do things differently next time. Get an Airbnb outside of town, cook all my own food, avoid the shops (seriously how many crystal stores did I see), get to all the trails early. It was so touristy and hard to get around.

@ThePilotUSA1962 2 ай бұрын

why do you recommend an Airbnb?

@kelp71 2 ай бұрын

@ThePilotUSA1962 Not specifically an airbnb, but a short-term vacation rental away from the city or in a quiet location of the city. I would prefer cooking myself as the places we were ate weren't great, overpriced, and some actually charged a 2 dollar fee for their employees' healthcare. I didn't like the touristy shops either except for a few photograph art shops. Traffic was annoying, too, and I'm from Seattle. Sorry got a little wordy but another trip to Sedona for me would be about nature versus tourist traps.

Chris, welcome to my state, can't believe you were here and I missed you, glad you had a good time in Sedona. As far as crowds and as a local, been here 20+ years, I have a different take on crowds. In my experience having visit like 10+ times, if you're going on a weekend or holiday, it'll always be busy. My recommendation is go during the week to avoid crowds. Summer tends to attract Phoenicians escaping the brutal heat, fall/spring attracts more out of state tourists, but if going weekends, it doesn't matter, it'll always be busy. As far as hotels, if you have cc certificates, the Hyatt Vacation Club is descent category 4 option, otherwise the Hilton resort on Oak Creek is another great certificate redemption. Great review, learned a few tips about the hikes, that torta norteña looked good 😋

I love Sedona! I went a few years ago, and I absolutely loved it! It was quite hot during the day (even during October), so I pretty much just did my outdoor hiking and downtown exploration early and late in the day. I remember doing some of the Airport Mesa trail, and I also did the Devils Bridge trail which was quite beautiful. Sedona is one place I would love to go back to someday. I'm glad you all had a great time there!

Great video Chris! Your daughter is adorable! We love Sedona, spent 2 weeks there in October 2023 and 2 weeks in August. If you want to beat the crowds and can handle the heat go in August. The crowds weren't too bad in October, it did get busy on the weekends. Just keep in mind August is monsoon season so you'll have to keep an eye on the weather. We found the Hilton Vacation Club properties are pretty reasonable and they all come with small kitchenettes so you can cook some meals to help save on food costs. There's one in Sedona and the Village of Oak Creek. Cheers!

Please, please, please get it right everyone! lol The arches are “Turquoise” at McDonald’s... not blue, not teal, not green but “Turquoise” for the desert south west. ( been here since 1994) Walk, Hike or Bike but do Not DRIVE! If you want to shop and enjoy “Uptown” between 12-4pm during peak season or holidays... I was walking faster than traffics yesterday. The views from the road are just as beautiful as the hiking trails. Also Don’t go eat right after sunset that’s when everyone else and their brother uncle go.

I would avoid these trails or you will get run over by mountain bikers: Slim Shady, Hiline, Hangover, Any of the Hogs, Chuckwagon. Those trails aren’t very pretty anyway. Lots of poop on the trails, . Stick to non MTB trails like devils bridge or avoid trails altogether and look at the McDonald’s blue arch or visit the Crystal shops. Also Famous pizza is terrible.

11:55 Why can you only describe foods & drinks as "good/great" when you're a grown adult that graduated from high school English class & have been eating & traveling for your whole life? I don't understand why you & many travel vloggers are like this. Most of you never even include the price of the items either. Why don't you do that? You lack so much basic information.
