    Hash Kitchen

    Start your morning off with breakfast bright and early from the Hash Kitchen!

    From the moment I walked through the doors, I was captivated by the vibrant and lively atmosphere. The restaurant’s quirky and fun decor immediately set the tone for a fantastic breakfast adventure.

    One of the highlights of my visit was the “make it yourself” Bloody Mary bar, which was an absolute delight. It featured an impressive array of toppings and garnishes, allowing you to personalize your drink to perfection. From crispy bacon and pickled vegetables to an assortment of hot sauces and spices, the options were endless.

    The Hash Kitchen has such attention that was put into the restaurant’s design. The colorful wall art, playful signage, and eclectic furnishings created an energetic ambiance that made me feel right at home. The staff members were friendly and attentive, further enhancing the overall experience.

    Now, let’s talk about the food. The breakfast options at Hash Kitchen were nothing short of phenomenal. The menu boasted an impressive variety of dishes, from classic favorites to innovative creations. I opted for their signature egg breakfast meal and it was perfectly delicious! The portion sizes were generous, ensuring that no one at the table left hungry.

    Kayaking at Saguaro Lake Ranch

    During my trip to Phoenix, I knew I had to add this fun activity to my Phoenix Itinerary. I had my 1-year-old son with me, but thankfully my mom was also with me so she was able to watch him while I did this activity.

    You will definitely want to add this kayaking adventure along the breathtaking lower Salt River to your Phoenix itinerary. This was booked through the fantastic team at Saguaro Lake Ranch. Let me tell you, it was an experience that exceeded all my expectations.

    The kayaking excursion lasted approximately two hours, providing ample time to soak in the serene beauty of the surroundings. What I loved most about this experience was the freedom it offered. It was a self-guided and self-paced adventure, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the tranquility of the river at my own leisure.

    Before setting off, the friendly staff at Saguaro Lake Ranch ensured that we were equipped with all the necessary gear and gave us a brief orientation on kayaking techniques and safety procedures. Their professionalism and attention to detail immediately put me at ease, allowing me to focus on the adventure ahead.

    As I paddled along the lower Salt River, I was in awe of the picturesque views that unfolded before me. The rugged desert landscapes, towering saguaro cacti, and the gentle flow of the river created a truly mesmerizing atmosphere. It was a scenic feast for the eyes, with every stroke of the paddle revealing new delights.

    One of the highlights of the kayaking experience was the wildlife I encountered along the way. I saw majestic bald eagles soaring above and you even have the potential to see graceful wild horses grazing on the riverbanks. The peaceful nature of kayaking allowed me to observe these animals in their natural habitat, creating cherished memories that will last a lifetime.

    It’s worth noting that this kayaking adventure is suitable for those aged 12 and above, making it a fantastic outing for families and older children. The cost per person, at approximately $51, was well worth the experience, considering the quality of the equipment, the stunning scenery, and the knowledgeable guidance provided by Saguaro Lake Ranch.

    Children’s Museum of Phoenix

    If you have kids then you have to add the Children’s Museum of Phoenix to your Phoenix itinerary. From the moment we stepped inside, my family and I were greeted with a world of imagination and wonder. Our experience at the museum was nothing short of exceptional.

    One of the standout features of the Children’s Museum of Phoenix is its multiple levels, each offering a unique and engaging experience. The museum thoughtfully divided the spaces into different areas based on age groups, ensuring that everyone had an appropriate and enjoyable experience.

    Landon was thrilled to discover the variety of interactive exhibits catered specifically to his interests and abilities. From sensory exploration and imaginative play areas to engaging science experiments and creative art spaces, the museum provided an enriching and stimulating environment for them to learn and grow.

    One aspect that particularly stood out was how well-maintained and comfortable the museum was. The air-conditioned interior provided a respite from the Arizona heat, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the exhibits without worrying about the weather outside.

    The admission cost of $17.00 per person was well worth the value of the experience. The museum’s commitment to providing a safe and engaging environment for children was evident in the attention to detail and the quality of the exhibits.

    Day 2 Phoenix Itinerary: hike and Arizona Boardwalk

    Hike Papago park

    If you’re planning a trip to Arizona, make sure to visit the enchanting Papago Park. The best time to experience its breathtaking beauty is at sunrise or sunset when the desert landscape comes alive with vibrant colors.
