Scottsdale Arizona Travel Guide: Cowboys, Couture & Quirk

October 17, 2012 By VoyageVixens 1 Comment

Voyage Vixens headed to the Beverly Hills of the Sonoran Desert to create a sophisticated + sexy + sizzling Scottsdale, Arizona travel guide. We discovered Scottsdale offers more than meets the eye including Arizona wine, Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, artisan eats, mystical spa treatments and scenic adventures. Lindsay’s interest led her to horseback riding and slinging mud on an ATV while Lanee headed for quirky culture sights like Cosanti and James Turrell’s skyscape at Museum of Contemporary Arts. They joined forces in Scottsdale, Arizona for hikes on Camelback and Summit Trail, relishing in Montelucia’s Hamman spa, tequila tasting at the Phoenician and fireside chats at Hermosa Inn.

Excerpt from Lindsay’s Scottsdale, Arizona travel guide in the Tennessean:

From the moment he first set eyes upon the Sonoran Desert in the late 1920s as a consulting architect for the Arizona Biltmore Resort in Phoenix, Frank Lloyd Wright was smitten “by the beauty of the desert, by the dry, clear, sundrenched air, and by the stark geometry of the mountains.”

A rugged and untamed wilderness, the Sonoran Desert is a 120,000-square-mile reminder that the American West’s frontier spirit is alive and kicking. Keep reading: Scottsdale, Arizona: From Cowboy to Couture by Lindsay Taub

An excerpt from Lanee’s Scottsdale quirky travel guide in Fathom Away:

If you only do one thing in Scottsdale, Arizona,  explore Frank Lloyd Wright’s legacy. Many of the projects he did later in life were situated in Scottsdale and nearby Phoenix, and most are still preserved, including The First Christian Church, Gammage Auditorium on the Arizona University campus in Tempe, and several homes. The combination of wide-open sky and rugged, desert terrain makes FLW’s organic architecture a symphony for the eyes.

WHO ARE THE VIXENS?

Lanee Lee and Lindsay Taub of Voyage Vixens

Hi! We're Lanee and Lindsay. You may have gotten to this page because you're intrigued by the word "vixens" or maybe you found some of our porn online (#travelporn, that is!). Either way, we are fully aware we are not what you typically think of when you hear the word "vixen", i.e. boobalicious babe wearing skintight minidresses in 6-inch heels. In our book, you don't need DDs to be a VV. To us -- vixens are smart and sassy women (and men, why not?!) who take action, scared sh**less or not, to turn their dreams into realities. Now you know a little about us; we'd like to get to know you. Connect with us on twitter, instagram, google+, pinterest, youtube, Facebook, tumblr, and periscope! (yes, we're on them all...#sorrynotsorry)

Got a Story to Tell?

We want to hear it! We're now accepting guest blog posts. Send us your travel tale—be it hilarious, heartwarming or horrifying— to [email protected]. Promise, you'll hear from us in less than 48 hours.
