Sedona: Center of Arizona’s Red Rock Country is now available as a QuietGuide. A year-round vacation destination tucked into a national forest, Sedona is about 100 miles south of the Grand Canyon. More than four million visitors tour this picturesque little town each year, some as day trippers, but most as overnight guests at one of the world-class resorts or delightful inns. In addition to the amazing red rock scenery, which is much like that of the Grand Canyon, the area features nationally-protected ancient Native American sites, miles of marked multi-use trails, dozens of upscale art galleries and shops, and a variety of restaurants serving regional and international dishes in all price ranges.

This tour was written and photographed by Lynne Sullivan, an author of travel guides and articles about dozens of Caribbean islands and the American Southwest. Her writing encourages independent travelers to explore the history, culture and lifestyle of every destination, while allowing ample time for aimless wandering, spontaneous detours and afternoon naps.
