Phoenix Zoo<br />

The Phoenix Zoo is made up of four major themed areas, or<br />

"trails", where visitors can experience exhibits representing<br />

different areas of the world and their native wildlife: the<br />

Arizona Trail, the Africa Trail, the Tropics Trail, and the<br />

Discovery/Children's Trail. There are also side trails<br />

including the Desert Lives Trail (featuring native Big Horn<br />

Sheep and Arabian Oryx amongst the natural buttes) and the<br />

Forest of Uco (featuring a mock South American mercado, a<br />

fake scientific expedition and ruins, and highlighting a<br />

number of tropical animals including the Spectacled <strong>Be</strong>ar).<br />

Desert Botanical Garden<br />

The Desert Botanical Garden is home to over 10,000 plants<br />

from deserts around the world, including more than half of<br />

the world's total number of cacti species. During your<br />

walking tour of the garden, group members will have the<br />

opportunity to discover the secrets of the desert. Plants<br />

and People of the Sonoran Desert is a three-acre permanent<br />

exhibit which takes visitors through a saguaro forest, a<br />

mesquite thicket, a desert stream and an upland chaparral<br />

habitat with historic and prehistoric structures along<br />

the trail.<br />

Kartchner Caverns<br />

Deep below the extreme desert surface in southeastern<br />

Arizona, a cave system - a geological void of gigantic<br />

proportions -- hides its riches from the eye of Phoebus.<br />

Existing in its own delicate microclimate for over 200,000<br />

years, the caverns clutch in their dominion a wide variety<br />

of priceless calcite decorations called speleothems.Until<br />

recently, travelers passing among the saguaros and<br />

creosote were unaware of the vast space, cool damp and<br />

quiet, lying secretly beneath them. Inside the caverns,<br />

Things to see and do in Phoenix<br />

darkness and humidity prevail. The echo of dripping water<br />

resounding off the cave's ancient limestone walls hints at its<br />

immense size, and the still moist air enjoys undisturbed<br />

slumber except for the occasional rapid wing beats of a<br />

myotis bat. Completely closed to the outside except for small<br />

fissures, with an average temperature of 68 degrees and<br />

relative humidity at a stifling 99%, visitors face mixed<br />

emotions upon entering this earthen basement. Initially awed<br />

by the spaciousness, later challenged by the encapsulation,<br />

most spectators become acutely fascinated by the majestic<br />

features that beckon their eye with peculiar shapes and<br />

vivid color.<br />

Shopping<br />

Fashion Square anchored by several major department<br />

stores including Nordstrom, Dillard’s, Neiman Marcus,<br />

Robinson’s-May, and Macy’s. Fashion Square is one of<br />

Scottsdale's largest malls. Numerous Arizona novelty shops<br />

along with mall favorites like Victoria’s Secret, the Gap<br />

and Crate and Barrel, make this a mall with an exceptional<br />

mix of stores, boutiques and restaurants.<br />

Desert Ridge Marketplace<br />

Arizona’s premier shopping, dining and entertainment<br />

destination is located across from the JW Marriott Desert<br />

Ridge. Immerse your shopping senses in a unique blend of<br />

specialty retailers, restaurants and entertainment venues in<br />
