Sedona Is Having a Moment

Sedona just landed on Expedia’s list as one of Expedia’s 10 Destinations of the Year for 2027, ranked #4 among the fastest-growing destinations. That ranking comes from real flight and accommodation search data, and Sedona’s search interest jumped 55% year over year.

Even better, Sedona earned Expedia’s Smart Travel Health Check, a nod to places that handle tourism responsibly. Translation: this is a destination worth visiting and worth taking care of.

It’s easy to see why people are searching. Sedona is instantly recognizable for its red and orange sandstone formations, and it’s packed with spas, yoga retreats, and more than 200 miles of hiking trails. But if hiking isn’t your speed, there’s a more hands-on way to explore.

Why an ATV Day Is the Perfect Sedona Adventure

When a destination is this popular, you want an experience that feels active, memorable, and a little bit wild. Driving your own ATV checks every box.

This is the trip for friends who want to make each other laugh, couples chasing a fun date, and groups looking for a shared story to tell. You’re not watching the scenery from a window. You’re in it, steering through rugged terrain and soaking up those unforgettable views.

It’s the playful, carefree side of Sedona: a little adventure, a lot of grins, and some great photos to prove it.
