Sedona! You've got to spend time in the Sedona, Oak Creek and Jerome area, on the 89A. Beautiful.
Of course, you can't miss Flagstaff, the San Francisco Peaks, the Grand Canyon, Meteor Crater, the Painted Desert and Lake Powell (with Glen Canyon Dam hydroelectric powerplant tour).
Then there's Lake Mead (Boulder/Hoover Dam), Lake Mohave and Lake Havasu/Parker, along the Colorado River.
Who could go to Arizona without going to the famous Four Corners (AZ/UT/CO/NM borders) and the desolate but beautiful rock desert up in north/east AZ area.
Then of course there's Payson/Pinetop, Christopher Creek, Heber and Show Low, on the 87/260 and the White Mountains.
There is the Bradshaw Mountain area south of Prescott on the historic Senator Highway, with the famous Crown King gold and silver mining area. This area is best explored with a Jeep.
The drive from Prescott west on Iron Springs Road and south through Skull Valley, to Kirkland, and then the 89 south through Peeples Valley and Yarnell, down the mountain to Congress and to the famous rodeo town of Wickenburg and Vulture Mine is very pretty any time of year. Winter is rodeo season and Wickenburg comes alive then.
