experience flagstaff

Packed with energy and surrounded by beautiful natural wonders Flagstaff warmly welcomes visitors to northern Arizona. But that's not all. With over two-hundred restaurants, a variety of accommodations, world-class attractions, and colorful nightspots, our small-town charm gives big-town excitement. Flagstaff is located an easy 2-hour drive north of Phoenix and just 1 and a half hours south of The Grand Canyon.

Visitors to the Flagstaff area are often surprised to find some of the most beautiful country in the Southwest in and around Flagstaff, with lush woodlands, majestic mountains, rugged, northern deserts, and a string of National Monuments that showcase many ancient Native ruins.

At the heart of all this is Flagstaff’s lovely historic downtown where visitors enjoy galleries, unique gift shops, dozens of restaurants, coffee shops, and entertainment. A visit to Flagstaff would also not be complete with a stop at one or more of Flagstaff’s attractions including the Museum of Northern Arizona featuring internationally acclaimed collections that cover the people, cultures and land of the Colorado Plateau and the Lowell Observatory, site of the discovery of the Planet Pluto and much more.

For more information on visiting Flagstaff stop by the Visitors Center, located downtown in the historic train station at 1 East Route 66, or give us a call at 1-800-842-7293.
