THERE'S SO MUCH TO love

WHERE TO GO

XO from Arizona is deeply rooted in the love of local and we celebrate the local businesses, charming towns, innovative cities and stunning natural wonders that make Arizona truly unique. We celebrate the proud legacy of Native American, Hispanic and Cowboy Cultures, whose rich traditions, art and histories are woven into the very fabric of the Grand Canyon State.

 

From the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, to Tucson, a UNESCO World Heritage Food City, where Native American & Hispanic influences infuse the cuisine with flavors as vibrant as the community itself. Flagstaff, the United States' first International Dark Sky City, offers a gateway to the stars. Kingman and the character-filled towns that dot Route 66, Sedona’s red rock splendor, the desert elegance of Scottsdale, the artistic haven of Tubac and the legendary streets of Tombstone each tell a story of Arizona's diverse cultural tapestry.

 

Through XO from Arizona, we invite you to explore these roads less travelled and discover the real Arizona one local business, town & destination at a time. There’s so much to love...

TELL US WHAT YOU love AND WE'LL SHOW YOU WHERE TO GO...
