Phoenix travel tips
See the bats staying awake in Phoenix
Tourists don't know it, but Phoenix is home to more than 10,000 Mexican bats. You can see this amazing scenery when plenty of bats stay awake in the evening. Walk Northwest from 40th Street and Camelback near Chelsea's Kitchen on the northern end of the Arizona Canal trail. No panic, they are completely harmless!
Have brunch at the reto-style Windsor Restaurant & Bar in Phoenix
Brunch at Windsor Restaurant & Bar in Phoenix is a great idea! This retro-cool rumpus cafe is famous among locals for their numbered cocktails. If you don’t need to drive a car, check out the No. 57 cocktail (a blend of cucumber vodka, fresh carrot juice and ancho reyes). Whatever you choose for drinks, the fish-n-chips will be a good addition.
See the fabulous marine life in Phoenix
Kids and adults will be amazed by the large collection of marine life at the SEA LIFE Arizona at 5000 S Arizona Mills Circle in Phoenix. They breed seahorse as part of a worldwide breeding programme in a special Temple of the Seahorse. Do not miss the Interactive Tidepool, where you can touch rockpool species like starfish and sea urchins.
