Travel Podcasts Available for Scottsdale, Arizona

Now that the cold weather has hit the northern part of the United States, snowbirds and vacationers alike are heading south.

If you’ll be in the Scottsdale (Arizona) area, check out the Convention and Visitors Bureau website, and download a few travel podcasts before you go.  You can play the podcast on your computer or mp3 player.

There is a downloadable map of downtown Scottsdale, and one for the greater Scottsdale area.  The podcasts corresponds with various stops on the map.  Follow the driving tour and discover the history and culture of Scottsdale, along with discovering its architecture, art, sports, and the drama of the Sonoran Desert.

Here a sample of what’s available:

• Saddle Up in the West’s Most Western Town
• A Cactus League Blooms in the Desert
• Fabulous Fairways and Bountiful Trails
• The McDowell Sonoran Preserve
• The Panoramas of Pinnacle Peak Park

Arizona is on my list of places to get back to this winter, and I’m already checking out places that I want to visit.  I think I’m moving the McDowell Sonoran Preserve to the top of the list.
