Know when and where to go

Get ready for the weather

Like most places in the United States, Arizona has unpredictable weather conditions. A sunny day can eventually turn into a chilly day so you better be ready with your jacket and umbrella. Nevertheless, the spring and fall months usually have mild weather. If you want to go for some sightseeing activities, you can visit around these seasons.

Learn a little Spanish language

The locals in Arizona speak English fluently because it is the primary language. However, since it is a border between Mexico and America, you can hear other people talking with their own dialects. Some also speak Spanish. So if you are planning to stay longer in Arizona, it is best to learn the most commonly used words and phrases in Spanish or Mexican to talk to some locals.

We recommend you travel with friends. We toured the Grand Canyon area with some friends who helped us start our small company here in Arizona almost 10 years ago (Chandler Towing and Recovery). Take time to have a blast in Arizona!
