旅行者へのアドバイス
必要な持ち物
Essentials
A canteen/water bottle. Always remember to hydrate in the desert. The very dry climate can catch some off guard. Have a canteen with you like you would your keys to always have water accessible. Having electrolytes is helpful too.
Sunscreen. Obvious but often forgotten and regretted.
A hat. Helpful in near-constant sunshine!
Layers. The desert often fluctuates 20-30 degrees from morning to night year-round.
交通アクセス
Cars are the fastest way to get around.
It's hard to get lost in Phoenix since it's a grid system. Avenues are to the west of Central Ave, and streets are to the east.
Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are easy to access all over the valley.
Rental bikes and scooters are available in pockets around the city.
The Valley Metro rail runs a 30-mile stretch and serves Phoenix, Tempe, and Mesa.
The Phoenix Public Transit bus service runs 7 days a week.
