COST-EFFECTIVE ANALYSIS TRIP SCHEDULE
To make a truly cost effective evaluation, there are two other mechanical and one laser scribing companies located in the Greater Phoenix area.

The Painted Desert to the Grand Canyon: Touring Arizona
Deserts, red rock formations, abundant lakes, majestic mountains - this is Arizona, home to some of America's most breathtaking natural wonders. This sixth-largest state in America has the Grand Canyon, the Painted Desert, the Petrified Forest, ancient cave dwellings, meteor craters and more to its credit. A trip through Arizona is an awe-inspiring adventure for travelers from near and far.
By contrast, Arizona also boasts cosmopolitan cities like Phoenix, its capital - its urban lifestyle tempered with Southwestern spirit. There, as in much of the state, you'll get a definite sense of the Native American heritage evidenced by Navajo and Hopi reservations covering the state. Combine the history and natural beauty of Arizona with a balmy climate that stays moderate year-round - and the lure of the state is clear.
Unparalleled natural beauty, Native American heritage, a huge array of recreational options - see the great American Southwest.
Points of Interest in Arizona
Arizona is a state rich in natural beauty and history. The most awe-inspiring site is, of course, the Grand Canyon. One of the seven natural wonders of the world, the Grand Canyon draws millions of visitors each year. Base yourself in Flagstaff if exploring the Grand Canyon is your goal - it's about 90 miles south of the Grand Canyon and the closest city. To adequately see and experience the Grand Canyon takes several days - a hike just to the bottom takes one full day. Many visitors opt for mule trips and river trips to get the real flavor of the Grand Canyon. These fill up quickly, so don't forget to make reservations in advance. Check out Grand Canyon Caverns, which are 345 million years old. You can take an elevator down 21 stories to see them.
An adventure in science awaits near Tucson at the Biosphere 2 Center, the world's largest glass-enclosed ecological laboratory. This center, open to the public since 1990, focuses on the environment - how we affect it and how it affects us. See the Human Habitat, built to house 10 people comfortably, or enjoy the underwater gallery of the Ocean and Coral Reef.
If your interest is more in history, Arizona boasts a wealth. The existing ghost towns are testaments to the once-thriving mining industry in the state. Jerome, near Sedona, was once the fifth-largest city in Arizona. The copper mines that were crucial to the size and prosperity of the town are rumored to be over 1,000 years old, a product of one of the Native American tribes. Now it hosts visitors curious about the Old West and features shops and restaurants galore.
Perhaps you'd like to take a shot at discovering the legendary Lost Dutchman Mine, the famous lost mine that draws would-be prospectors to this day. Phoenix is where to start - drive the Apache Trail and make a stop at Lost Dutchman State Park, at the foot of the imposing Superstition Mountains.
Downtown Phoenix is also home to the internationally acclaimed Heard Museum, which showcases the cultures and art of Native Americans of the Southwest. Both traditional and contemporary Native American art take center stage in the galleries and lovely outdoor courtyards.
Arizona is truly a must-see, with its towns, cities and parks offering a dazzling array of sites and attractions. Perhaps this wonderful dichotomy of nature and culture explains why millions of visitors experience Arizona each year.
