Which one would you choose above the other, and why?
I'm having an arguement, and i think that Flagstaff would be more fun than Tucson, for a day trip. (I live in Phoenix). Are there fall colors right now in Flagstaff?|||If you live in Phoenix, I definitely think you should go to Flagstaff. It is in the mountains and would be a nice change from where you are. Going to Tuscon, another desert city, wouldn't feel as much like you actually went somewhere else. Besides, Flagstaff is just a beautiful city with a unique personality. I almost went to college there and I kinda wish I had. I'm not there right now but I'd guess that there's not many Fall colors there quite yet; I'm at about the same Latitude and there's none here yet. Give it just a couple more weeks though and there will be.|||Take 2 days. Go north on Day 1. Go to Tucson on Day 2. See Sabino Canyon, go up on Mt Lemmon, visit the mission, visit the National Park and the other stuff that's been mentioned. Oops - you'll need 2 days in Tucson.
But if you really want something off the main roads (and crowds), drive up to Tonto Natural Bridge State Park for a day. It's near Payson, and is quiet and beautiful and less crowded. A very nice drive up Hwy 87 from Phoenix.|||Flagstaff, yes there are some fall colors.|||Flagstaff!!!! good shoping too downtown a lot to look at, and eat at...and couple of brewerys too.. time to think of christmas presents?|||Flagstaff, it is cleaner, more to do, and the leaves have changed, so its beautiful, and the drive to Flag is more scenic than the drive to Tucson.|||Neither.
Go sedona, that is best for one day trip.|||Weather.com has a fall-colors map. I prefer oak-creek and sedona for the fall leaves. The leaves are changing in flagstaff, not in tucson.

There is so much to do around arizona that you could go out every weekend and be busy for years.
Montezumas well and castle. Verde Valley Railway. Biosphere 2 and the titan missile site. Meteor crater. Zoo. Zoolights is coming soon. There are night hikes, and stargazing hikes, and wildlife spotting hikes with phoenix parks and rec. departments in south mountain.
Theres lots to do in phoenix too.
I think that up north is cooler, and has more fun stuff.|||I'd go with Flagstaff. Flagstaff is very different from Phoenix, in terms of the weather and scenery, and you can even stop by Sedona on the way. There are fall colors, although the colors up in Flagstaff aren't as spectacular as those, say, in the northeast.
Tucson is pleasant enough, but it's not that different from Phoenix - big desert city.|||yes and tucson too.
