If you prefer to drive, you can take I-17 N from Prescott Valley to connect with I-40 E. This route allows for beautiful scenery, especially in northern Arizona and New Mexico. Ensure to have snacks and entertainment for the journey.

Traveling by bus is another cost-effective option. With both Greyhound and FlixBus, you have the opportunity to relax while someone else handles the driving. Be prepared for longer travel times compared to flying.
Recommendation: If time is of the essence, I recommend flying as it is the fastest option. However, if you want a more scenic experience and don’t mind a longer duration, the road trip route offers beautiful scenery and flexibility.
