Over 24 Years of Sedona Knowledge. One Personal Concierge. Your Sedona, Your Way.
Sedona isn't simply a destination. It's an experience.
The question isn't whether there are things to do here. The real question is: With so many choices, how do you know which Sedona experiences are right for you?
That's where I come in.
I'm Allen Elfman, and for more than 24 years, I've called the Sedona area home while providing concierge services and helping visitors navigate this extraordinary corner of Arizona.
I don't believe the perfect Sedona vacation comes from clicking the first sponsored result on the internet.
I believe it comes from understanding you.
Are you looking for adventure? Romance? Luxury? Incredible scenery? Wine country? A challenging hike? A relaxing afternoon? Something the entire family can enjoy?
Tell me what you want your Sedona experience to feel like, and I'll help you figure out how to make it happen.
Sedona offers everything from intimate boutique properties and creekside accommodations to luxury resorts, spas and spectacular red-rock retreats.
But the "best hotel in Sedona" isn't necessarily the best hotel for you.
Your priorities might be completely different from someone else's.
You may want:
• Incredible red-rock views
• A romantic setting
• A luxury resort experience
• Spa and wellness amenities
• Easy access to Uptown Sedona
• Privacy and seclusion
• Access to hiking
• Creekside accommodations
• Something appropriate for a family
• Something memorable for an anniversary or special occasion
I'll help you narrow the enormous list of choices and identify accommodations that make sense for the Sedona experience you're trying to create.
There are few things more "Sedona" than climbing aboard a Jeep and heading into Red Rock Country.
There are also numerous tours, routes and adventure levels to choose from.
Some visitors want rocks, bumps and adventure.
Others would strongly prefer to return from vacation with all their vertebrae still where nature originally installed them.
That's an important distinction.
I'll help you evaluate the different styles of Jeep and off-road experiences based on your interests, physical comfort, available time and the kind of scenery or adventure you want to experience.
From scenic introductions to rugged backcountry adventures, I'll help point you in the right direction.
You've seen Sedona from the ground.
Now imagine seeing Red Rock Country from above.
Helicopter and aerial tours provide an entirely different perspective on Sedona's massive formations, canyons and wilderness.
I can help you compare aerial experiences based on factors including:
• Flight duration
• Scenic routes
• Photography opportunities
• Private versus shared experiences
• Special occasions
• Adventure combinations
• Your schedule and budget
Sometimes you don't fully understand the scale of Sedona until you're looking down at it.
Yes, Sedona has red rocks.
But just beyond those rocks is another Northern Arizona attraction visitors sometimes don't discover until they've arrived:
Arizona Wine Country.
The Verde Valley offers vineyards, wineries, tasting rooms and beautiful countryside around communities including Cornville, Cottonwood, Clarkdale and Jerome.
Whether you're planning a romantic afternoon, birthday celebration, girls' getaway, group outing or simply want to explore Arizona wines without worrying about who's driving, I can help you explore the available wine-tour experiences.
Tell me the atmosphere you're looking for and I'll help you determine the type of experience that fits.
Because wine tasting is considerably more enjoyable when nobody in the group has been appointed "the responsible one."
Sedona offers hundreds of miles of trails, ranging from peaceful walks and scenic overlooks to serious red-rock adventures.
And no, you shouldn't select a trail simply because someone on Instagram looked fantastic standing on it.
Your ideal hike depends on you.
I can help you explore options based on:
• Fitness and experience
• Desired difficulty
• Length and available time
• Sunrise or sunset
• Photography opportunities
• Vortex interests
• Family-friendly options
• Guided versus independent hiking
• Scenic priorities
For visitors who prefer a knowledgeable professional alongside them, I can also help identify guided hiking experiences appropriate for their interests and ability.
The objective isn't simply to hike Sedona.
It's to experience it safely and enjoyably.
One of the advantages of having someone local helping with your visit is discovering what's happening while you're actually here.
Sedona's calendar changes constantly and can include:
• Art festivals and gallery events
• Sedona International Film Festival programming
• Live music
• Wine and culinary events
• Outdoor adventures
• Wellness and yoga experiences
• Community celebrations
• Holiday events
• Cultural programs
• Special events throughout the Verde Valley
Tell me the dates of your visit and your interests, and I'll help identify events worth considering while you're here.
Sometimes the experience you remember most wasn't even on your original itinerary.
There are plenty of websites capable of producing a list of "10 Things To Do In Sedona."
That's not concierge service.
My approach is personal.
After more than 24 years in the Sedona area, I've developed something that can't simply be downloaded from an app:
local perspective.
Instead of overwhelming you with dozens of possibilities, I'll listen to what you're looking for and help you narrow those choices.
Your vacation shouldn't look exactly like everyone else's.
Couples, families, solo travelers, adventurers and luxury travelers all experience Sedona differently.
My recommendations begin with your interests, not somebody else's itinerary.
I've watched Sedona grow and change for more than two decades.
I understand the geography, attractions, surrounding communities and the simple logistical realities that visitors often don't discover until they're already here.
Instead of researching hotels on one website, tours on another, wineries somewhere else and events on yet another page, you have one person you can call.
Me.
Maybe you want a Jeep tour in the morning, lunch with an incredible view, wine tasting in the afternoon and sunset somewhere spectacular.
Or maybe your idea of vacation is doing absolutely nothing until noon.
Both are perfectly legitimate life choices.
I'll help build your experience around your pace.
I wanted my concierge service to operate differently.
So instead of charging you a complicated hourly consulting rate or forcing you into a predetermined concierge package:
That's it.
Experience Sedona.
Use my local knowledge.
Allow me to help make your visit easier, more interesting and more memorable.
Then determine what that assistance was worth to you.
I have more than 24 years of Sedona experience behind my recommendations.
I'm willing to let their value speak for itself.
You already made one excellent decision:
You're coming to Sedona.
Now let's make sure you experience more than the view from your hotel window.
Whether you're looking for the right resort, an unforgettable Jeep adventure, a helicopter flight over the red rocks, an afternoon exploring Arizona wine country, a guided hike or simply want to know "Allen, what should we do today?"
That's what Sedona Concierge by Allen Elfman is here for.
