Old Town Scottsdale is among the most vibrant and unique urban centers in the American Southwest. Its pedestrian-friendly streets are home to world class art galleries, museums, restaurants and retail shops ... and when the sun goes down you don't have to. We love hoping on and off the trolley and just venturing around town.

Parks & Nature

The Scottsdale McDowell Sonoran Preserve is a large, permanently protected, sustainable desert habitat that includes an interconnected network of non-motorized, multi-use trails (hike/bike/horse) accessed from multiple trailhead locations. Gateway Loop is the best. This 4.5 mile, moderately difficult trek around a mountain, offers visitors sweeping views from every direction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVGZFhInARY&index=4&list=PLOKBvBs_6yw_leuk8q-1XqorjG0cIPX5I

My son's favorite - not fancy dinning, but not fast food either. Crinkle cut fries are great and the shanks need to be eaten with a spoon.

Entertainment & Activities

Unique Golfing Experience with great food and other activites. The Topgolf (https://topgolf.com/us/riverwalk/) games can be played by all ages and skill levels, and the microchipped golf balls score themselves, providing players with instant feedback on each shot's accuracy and distance. Players aim for 11 giant dartboard-like targets on a 215-yard outfield. The farther the shot goes and the closer to the pin, the more points the player receives. Each Topgolf venue features climate-controlled hitting bays for year-round play, food, beverage, music and HDTVs on which various sports games are shown, such as football, basketball and golf. It's just fun

Absolutely the best place to go for a morning stroll. Listen to the animals as they wake up to start their day. I recommend getting there when the gates open and leaving around 11:00 when the tourists show up.

I am a life-time member and never get tired of seeing the creatures of the sea. I can sit for hours in front of the penguins. It does not compare with Monterrey or Mystic, but sure does hold it's own for an aquarium in the desert. Best part it that the complex where it is located has so many more things to see and do also.
