A spectacular long weekend in Phoenix

Phoenix is such an underrated spot for a city break—I didn’t realise how much there is to do until I went! You’ve got this amazing mix of outdoor adventures (hello, desert hikes and hot air balloon rides) and city vibes with great food, cool art districts, and even wine tasting not far away. The weather is fab most of the year, so you can be outside soaking in the sunshine. Plus, day trips to Sedona or the Grand Canyon make it even better. It’s one of those places where you think, “Why haven’t I been here sooner?”
