Sedona is a city with something unique to offer. Native American tribes such as the Apache, Yavapai and Navajo revere this city as a place of spiritual energy. They believe that potent spirits inhabit the sacred sites of Bell Rock, Cathedral Rock and Courthouse Butte. Modern spiritualists claim that these sites are vortexes where energy can be tapped for healing and enlightenment. You can customise a tour to experience the vortexes with Sedona Mystical Tours.
Visitors strolling Sedona’s Main Street will find a thriving mix of spiritual healers and wellness retreats scattered amongst souvenir shops and friendly cafés. Go on the Sedona Trolley to see the area’s attractions and retail hotspots such as Hillside Sedona. Then, check out Pink Jeep Tours and go on the Broken Arrow trail for a thrilling sightseeing adventure.
Sedona’s glorious history as a Western movie backdrop can be experienced today in a ranch accommodation. Scroll down to find a list of the best ranches to stay near Sedona, Arizona.
