Hi guys, so a bunch of us (15) are coming in may (19-23) for my brothers bachelor party. For some reason hes really into golfing so are there any suggestions of good courses that aren't overly priced.
As well since thats the weeked before memorial day for you guys any suggestions on clubs or bars to hit up?
and finally is there something thats a really memorable to do thats cool there?
I really don't know much about the courses here and am not a big golfer myself. My one tip is the earlier, the better because even in May it's going to be pretty hot. Hopefully someone else can help you. What area are you looking for?
My recommendation for restaurant/bar (also kind of memorable) would be any authentic Mexican place. Not the Tex/Mex that you can get anywhere else. Look for a place that serves chilaquiles, poblano, tres leches and when they serve you coke it will have real sugar. The actual Mexican food here is delicious, and usually very reasonably priced.
Obviously for tourists there's the Grand Canyon, but be warned, it's a four-hour drive one way. Staying more in the greater Phoenix area, we have the Desert Botanical Garden which is great for walking through at night (they have different events at different times and and they cater to a wide audience. Alcohol is available to purchase. If you and your friends are feeling more sporty, than you can walk up/climb Camelback Mountain which is fun/great view (Beware the heat though, hopefully it won't be to bad in May, bring lots of water) and the Coyotes used to do it as a rookie camp activity. I'm probably not the best person to talk to but regarding clubs and bars I think Mill Avenue, which is near ASU, is pretty wild. Two unique museums I'll recommend that are very cool are the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix and a place in Scottsdale called Taliesin West. It was Frank Lloyd Wright's home and now it's been converted into a museum. They give really good tours.
