Enjoy a warm 4-day winter getaway in one of southern Arizona’s most dramatic landscapes: the Sonoran Desert. There is something magical about the way the scenery unfolds in the Sonoran Desert. Giant Saguaro cacti are framed against a blue, cloudless backdrop. The sky is dotted with birds of prey soaring in search of their next meal. Bright flowers burst impossibly from the parched earth. When night falls, the scene becomes entirely still—a level of quiet that can only be felt in the desert. This adventure explores it all, including visits to Saguaro National Park, Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Each of these places is a protected wilderness area, offering opportunities to learn more about the flora, fauna, history, and geology that comprise this desert ecosystem. Get the perspective of locals living modern day life on the Arizona-Mexico Border. Enjoy daily hikes among desert landscapes and lounge on polished granite next to a clear, spring-fed waterfall. Cap each evening off in the relaxing comfort of our well-appointed hotel accommodations, feeling tired but exhilarated from the day’s adventures.
