For the best group travel deals, consider visiting Arizona during the off-season when crowds are lower and discounts on accommodations, restaurants, and attractions are more abundant. Summers are ideal for exploring cooler northern destinations like Flagstaff, while winter is perfect for enjoying the warmth of southern cities like Tucson and Phoenix.
