    Chris was absolutely amazing! Reached out to plan a proposal he texted me right way to make the experience more special for us. The tour was personable and Chris was so engaged with making sure this was the best possible experience for us! Words can't express just how great this was for us! Thank you! Will be seeing you again to see the Christmas lights!

    Incredible Tour!!!!! If you are looking for a unique idea to see the Valley of the Sun, celebrate a special day, or special people in your life... This is such an amazing tour and a great value! We toured with Chris and he was just so kind, informative, great with our kid, and was so gentle with the ride! We couldn't of asked for a better day! Yes, it is worth it! We will do this again!

    What an exceptional experience! Safety is of utmost importance to us we really couldn't have picked a better helicopter tour than SunState. Chris, the pilot & owner has years & years of experience and we felt like we were in great hands. He is extremely knowledgeable and pointed out some really interesting finds along our trip. The helicopter itself is beautiful, comfortable and just so much fun. We had such an amazing time - with breathtaking views. Highly recommend :)

    Highly recommend this company for Helicopter tours, very flexible and great prices. Chris, our pilot was very personable/knowledgeable of the area. He pointed out several points of interest and wildlife. We took a photo tour and he was able to get us some exceptional shots of wildlife and ruins. If you had to pick a tour company I would highly recommend

    Incredible sunset

    BOOK THIS PLACE!!!!! You will not find a better experience than the one with Chris. The ride is not only the best views in the state but also calming and surreal. I will definitely be doing this again. Priced better than anyone else worth every Penny. Book direct and call him. You won't regret it.

    We booked a "city lights" tour on January 1st to ring in the new year with our pilot Chris. It was my first time on a helicopter so I want sure what to expect. My partner is really nervous and scared of heights. Chris makes you feel comfortable and the helicopter felt very safe and clean. In the 30 minute ride we got to see pretty much everything. We took off right after sunset to catch the last glimpse of sun over the horizon. It was super cool seeing the city lights as soon as it got dark. Truly a beautiful and unforgettable experience!

    amazinnggg experience ! Chris was very funny and lighthearted. He is an amazing pilot and answered both mine and my boyfriends silly questions! Cant wait to book another flight :) (PS he even made sure that we got a perfect picture! haha)

    HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this tour! Don't be cheap, splurge for the hour tour, don't waste yours or Chris' time. Treat yourself. Also, DEFINITELY request a peak at the hottest bar in Old Town Wine Girl!

    Chris was great! I booked a sunset tour as a surprise for my boyfriend's birthday and we had a wonderful experience. The views are absolutely beautiful and the ride was very relaxing!

It's such a fun way to get some exercise in. I was sweating within 10 minutes of starting play. One thing that surprised me was what I feel like were new rooms and concepts. If my memory is not failing me and they are actually new rooms, that is very cool to know that they're always being updated and you can have new experiences despite having been before. Even if not, it's still a great place that I would frequent. I just need them in Tucson and I would have a monthly membership! There are a couple of things I think they can do to improve. For one, they should have benches, for those who may need a break from going into the rooms. I know the Atlanta one I went to did have benches. I also feel that there should be a water fountain. Should they add these things, I think it would really be the perfect place! (they are also losing out by not having a snack bar area with water bottles, snacks, liquid IV, etc.)!

We were all engaged in the activities and able to follow along on the prompts - nothing too difficult to remember and definitely a fun time!

They will disqualify you! :P I also thoroughly appreciate the staff dressing for the occasion and acting the part, making sure that the parties are actively participating and having fun throughout the event and that everyone has their turns. We all had a blast making each other laugh and teasing as well. Because there were different rooms I'm definitely curious what other games were in the other room so I'll surely come back for more :) This is definitely a great spot for family, friends, or even work activities. They offered space for catering and sell soft drinks as well as adult beverages for a reasonable price. Bathrooms are very clean and also single person rooms. Really good AC and clean environment. I would highly recommend this as an alternative to the common alternative dave and b's or escape rooms etc. for some adult fun! Plus you get to use your noggin!

We originally found them through Groupon, but when we visited their website, we noticed they were offering a 25% off promotion from July 3rd through July 5th, so we decided to take advantage of that deal. They offer both a 9-hole and an 18-hole mini golf course. The 18-hole option costs a little more, but with the promotion, it was a great value. We opted for the 9-hole course and had a wonderful time. The staff was very friendly, explained everything clearly, and made the check-in process easy. Since we purchased our tickets online in advance, we were able to pre-check in for our reserved time slot. It was fairly busy because of the holiday weekend, but the course flowed well. Guests simply waited for the group ahead to finish each hole before moving on, which kept things organized. They also have a restaurant and bar inside, making it easy to grab food and drinks before or after your game. We noticed they offer happy hour specials from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, although I'm not certain if those specials are available on weekends. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely visit again if we're in the area. It's a bit of a drive for us, but it was well worth the trip for a fun family outing.

But I just came here to play mini golf. Staff was great, and I was able to start early since I arrived before my reserved play time. There are two courses on site (starting either upstairs or downstairs), you don't get to choose when you book online, at least I don't remember being given an option, they just place you in one. I did the yellow & green course (amber & emerald to be exact). Lots of lights and color with moving parts on some of the holes. And the main difference is automatic scoring via ball sensors (which means I couldn't cheat, lol). I actually never keep score when I play mini golf. But I do like getting extra tries. The place was pretty busy, so it probably wouldn't be a good idea anyway. The holes are playful and creative, but more flashy than challenging. I'm no pro though so I'm fine with that. After getting a hole-in-one on the first two holes, I was feeling pretty confident. I know it was partly luck, lol. Not surprisingly, it didn't last. I had fun, that's what matters.

While he has properties all across the U.S., he's most well known in Phoenix for Talisien West. While Frank Lloyd Wright Spire isn't as extensive, it makes for a fun mini adventure. I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and had no trouble finding a free parking spot in the entertainment center where the Spire is located. Naturally, it's right off of Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd. If you're trying to find where to park, look for Maggiano's. The Spire was actually intended to be part of the State Capitol Building (another cool place to check out). Instead, it ended up in North Scottsdale. It's a large spire that stands out due to it's geometrical design and color scheme. While I saw it during the day, it's also nice to visit at night (when it lights up) or around the holidays (when an elf is attached to it). Outside of the spire, you have a good number of interesting sculptures designed by one of FLW's pupils. There's also a nice water fountain and bench area designed by another pupil. You can see FLW's influence in frequent uses of symmetry. And last but not least, there's a little tablet telling you a little bit about the spire and sculpture garden. This experience is free and can be done in about 10 minutes. I still have a few FLW spots to check out in town. On to the next one!

We were driving to Cosanti and I wanted to stop here to check it out. My favorite part of Taliesen West is the sculpture garden with sculptures by Heloise Crista. The good thing about this location is you can see a couple of the same sculptures for free. The archer near the fountain is very memorable and I took a picture of it for a friend who visited TLW with me and he instantly remembered it.  The spire itself was draped with a blow-up elf for the holidays and it was distracting. It was originally meant for Arizona State Capitol. It's odd its just placed on a street corner though I can see why its probably the best location for it. The spires at the Marin County Civic Center and the Anderton Court Shops are integrated into his architecture and feel a lot more appropriate. Overall, it was quick free stop for FLW fans, no one else was there in the afternoon. You can see a wider breadth of the Crista Sculptures at Taliesen West and there are better FLW spires that are part of his buildings.
