Area Information
Scottsdale is a true chameleon city that can fit any vacation personality. From diverse activities to ease of travel, we are the perfect tourist destination for the visitor looking for minimal logistics and maximum enjoyment.
How To Get Here
Scottsdale is a quick 20-minute drive from the Phoenix Sky International Airport, which means if your accommodation is in Old Town, a car rental is not a necessity to have a great and convenient vacation experience. One of the best parts of Scottsdale is that a quick Uber will put you directly in the walkable tourist hotspot. If you’re staying out of Old Town, a rental car may come in handy.
How To Get Around
Old Town is a perfect area for those who like to rely on public transportation (or your feet) to get you to all the fun of the city. From 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., a free trolley will shuttle you around Old Town so you don’t need to pay for a ride. At night, you can hop on one of the many party golf carts that will take you around the Scottsdale nightlife for tips.
Typical Weather & Temperatures
With beautiful, year-round summer days come very high temperatures. The main weather consideration to factor into your vacation plans is the extreme heat of Scottsdale summers. If you are not interested in sweating out the summer days, you may need to spend a little more to find accommodations during the high season of January to May.

If you are celebrating a Scottsdale birth-week instead of birthday, then here are some accommodations and restaurants that will stretch out the festivities!
