Arizona

Welcome to the ultimate solo traveler’s guide to Arizona! Altogether I have spent over 6 months traveling around Arizona, but I could easily spend 6 years exploring the Grand Canyon State. This is one of the states that I highly recommend for road trips because of the outstanding landscapes, especially in the north and central region.

👉 Arizona Travel Tip: Remember that Arizona does NOT follow Daylight Savings Time! If you are road-tripping close to the Utah border or exploring Navajo Nation lands, your mobile phone might arbitrarily switch time zones. Set your phone’s time zone manually to “Phoenix” to avoid missing out on your tour reservations and other time sensitive events.
