Top Nature in Phoenix

I think you should bring a camera, but also a good pair of shoes - you'll definitely want to capture the landscapes while being comfortable! I wore sandals and ended up with sore feet after a long day!

I think it's worth downloading a map or trail app before you go. Cell service gets spotty in the preserve, and getting lost is no fun!

My advice is to wear comfortable shoes. The gardens are larger than they look, and you'll want to explore every inch without your feet giving out on you

My advice is to wear comfy shoes! I made the mistake of wearing cute sandals, and my feet were killing me by the end of the day.

I recommend taking lots of photos but also taking a moment to put down your phone and just enjoy the tanks. The colors and the fish are mesmerizing!

Definitely check out the underwater tunnel. It's so cool and you can see the sharks and rays up close. I suggest timing your visit for around 1pm when it's less busy.

My advice is to bring some snacks and drinks. There aren’t many spots nearby to grab a bite without making it a hassle, and the beautiful surroundings are perfect for a little picnic

I recommend checking their calendar for special events or art exhibits before you go. I stumbled upon a lovely tea ceremony that I wasn't expecting!
