Rated a Top 5 Most Scenic Drive by Rand McNally, the Oak Creek Canyon Scenic Road is most spectacular during the fall season! Our adventure begins in historic downtown Flagstaff, where we’ll enjoy lunch on self, with several wonderful restaurants to choose from. Back in the Transits, we’ll travel south on Arizona 89A—a 14-mile stretch of high-country switchbacks, with stops along the way at dramatic overlooks. And if that’s not enough, Oak Creek Canyon Scenic Road turns onto the Red Rock Scenic Byway, Arizona’s first All-American Road. Often called “The Museum Without Walls,” the Red Rock Scenic Byway in Sedona, Arizona is visited by tourists from around the world. It cannot be overstated how fortunate we are that these two breathtaking scenic byways are just a hop-skip-and-a-jump away from the Valley, and ours to enjoy with every changing season! Do not miss this Kindred Tours Fall Classic!
