AMBIENTE
The highly-anticipated Ambiente, A Landscape Hotel, is set to welcome its first guests this December in Sedona. North America’s first landscape hotel is comprised of 40 cubed-shaped guest Atriums elevated above the ground by steel piers. Constructed around the natural vegetation and topography and built with sustainable methods and modern architecture, Ambiente promises to be a breathtaking hotel both visually and experientially. It is developed, owned and operated by Two Sister Bosses, a Sedona family-owned and operated company and designed by Scottsdalebased ASUL Architects.

AZ WINE WAGON
The Wine Wagon believes that getting there is half the fun, which is why this unique Arizona winery shuttle experience was created. Guests enjoy a full day of exploring the Verde Valley’s wine country through a luxe, hop-on, hop-off bus ride. Enjoy the ultimate convenience of same-day transportation both to and from Scottsdale.

If you have not heard of Puzzle Rides yet, it’s time to become familiar with one of the most unique businesses in Arizona. Puzzle Rides is most accurately described as a mobile escape room, but it really does combine the best elements of both escape rooms and scavenger hunts — and it’s all done outside and on-the-go. Participants are chauffeured around town on a golf cart by their puzzlemaster, finding clues and solving puzzles to unveil the next location on your quest for treasure.
