Phoenix Tour Enjoy The Valley of the Sun by Van - 4.5 Hours

The tour also includes Paradise Valley (the "Beverly Hills" of Arizona), downtown Phoenix, the State Capital Building with its remarkably beautiful copper dome, the USS Arizona Memorial, and the now world-renowned BOB ... (ask your driver about this one!) Along the way, you will see the famous Biltmore Resort and Estates, and the home of one of our favorite clients: Paul Harvey. Beyond simply seeing these sites, you will find out why they exist and hear their unique and exciting histories.
