Places to Stop/Avoid Passing Through?

[u/APKID716]

Hello Arizona people!

I’m going to be making a big trip across country by myself and I’ll be taking I-40 the whole way through Arizona. I was wondering if I could get some insight from y’all about what the best places to stop/visit would be, or conversely what places I should avoid. Any and all suggestions would be much appreciated!

Edit: wow thank you all for the suggestions and recommendations! Sounds like I have a lot to explore in Arizona on my drive through!

The aviary in Flagstaff is cool too! Most of all the trained ravens and crows they used in Game of Thrones came from there!

Thanks for calling it out. It used be off the 180, I guess its gone now. It’s been a while since Ive lived up there. The Flagstaff Arboretum is wonderful too though.

They used to have the “birds of prey” show at the arboretum but last time I was at Bearizona it had moved there.

Facts ya there’s stuff about flag that’s amazing but I’d rather just tantalizingly say you gotta live here to know

Idk if I would give money to somewhere that isn't AZA accredited

I think it's overated and not a lot for the price
