To really see the Saguaros go to Tucson and stay in a hotel or motel. It will be hot so forget the camper. Saguaro National Park is hard to beat.
This is my recommendation if you don't have AC in your trailer. You'll enjoy the trip much more. Tucson will be a 'little' cooler than Phoenix but if you're in a hotel and have a pool either will be tolerable. I hope you can do the trip. A forest of Saguaros is something to see and they are thick in Saguaro Nat'l Park. There are two areas of the national park - east and west. The east area has the nicest easy trails winding through the Saguaros. Early morning (like 6-7am) is the best time for hiking. By 10am you'll want the pool and then find something inside like a move from 12-4. The Desert Museum is wonderful in Tucson but again - early morning.
Another thought is to spend the Christmas holiday or spring break south then you can do everything outdoors all day long. :)
