You’ve likely heard about the Scottsdale bachelorette party scene. Scottsdale has been one of the best bachelorette party destinations for a few years now.
A Scottsdale bachelorette can be chill, adventurous, elegant, or wild — or any combination thereof that suits your crew best. And Scottsdale businesses have risen to the occasion, so you’ll find just the right activities for your ideal bride-to-be getaway.
Let Troupe help you with all the details. Vote on your favorite accommodations and book the winning hotel or homestay right in the app. With Troupe, everything related to bachelorette planning is all in one place. That means no more endless texts back and forth and more getting stuff done.
Where to stay for a Scottsdale bachelorette party
The greater Scottsdale area has plenty of Airbnb options with picture-perfect rooms ready for large groups, so your whole bachelorette party can spend the weekend comfortably under the same roof. If you’re coming from afar and have a little extra budget, you can have your space decorated and/or kitchen stocked ahead of your arrival. If you’re looking to be a bit more budget- and eco-conscious, there are some great Etsy makers who sell beautiful and affordable decorations that minimize waste.
Scottsdale’s weather is mostly clear year-round, so you can’t go wrong with the timing of your trip. Some factors that might help you decide on your “when”:
- It gets pretty hot between May and October, so if sun and water activities sound like your style, summer is the time to go.
- November through March is the “cool” season, with average temperatures clocking in at around 55°F. These might be optimal times to plan a trip if hiking and nature exploration are your priority. Bring a sweater, though, since it gets chillier after the sun sets.
Here are some fun bachelorette party activities, by category, that Scottsdale has to offer.

Scottsdale Bachelorette Party Guide
Learn how to plan a Scottsdale bachelorette party in 8 easy steps.
Sip & Chill
Whether you’re going all out or keeping things cozy (or both, depending on the night), Scottsdale businesses are ready to help you make it happen.
1. Maya Pool Party
Maya Dayclub is the happening spot for groups celebrating their brides- and grooms-to-be. With a giant, beautiful pool and awesome music, you’ll get the Las Vegas party feel at Maya. Maya is on the premium end of the spectrum, so be sure to check their menu and reservation options before you go.
2. Cabana Boys for Hire
Do you kiiiiinda want to hire strippers but not quite literally? Allow Scottsdale to introduce: cabana boys who will come hang out, pour drinks, curate fun playlists, help with party games, and more. As an add-on, they’ll also bring pool floaties. For two hours with two cabana boys, you can expect to spend about $550.
3. Dinner In with a Private Chef
Enjoy an elevated dining experience from the comfort of your home. You can choose the cuisine for your multi-course meal, or participate in the cooking with lessons from the chef. Depending on the meal, you can expect to spend $60 – $150 per person.
4. Cocktail-Making Classes
Have a local mixology coach come teach you how to make cocktails. You’ll learn how to make two or three cocktails and bring home valuable behind-the-bar secrets. Classes are $50 per person for two cocktails and $70 per person for three cocktails, and you’ll also have to stock up on your selected alcohol separately.
5. Party Bus Tour
Enjoy a 3 hour party bus trip through Scottsdale — bar hop along the way, or cruise along with drinks and tunes on a converted school bus. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can also hire a party bus for a day trip or excursion outside of Scottsdale.
6. Winery Hopping in Sedona
Spend a day visiting 3 Verde Valley wineries in the Sedona area, about 2 hours away from Scottsdale. The AZ Wine Wagon leaves from Scottsdale in the morning and brings you to the Alcantara Vineyard, Javelina Leap, and Page Springs Cellars. You’ll spend about an hour and a half at each.
You can reserve individual seats on a trip ($99 per person), or book the whole wagon for your crew ($2,000 total). Tastings and food will be available at each winery but aren’t included in the cost of the wagon.
Bachelorette Adventures in Scottsdale
From hiking to saying ‘namaste’ with goats, these opportunities for adventure are perfect for a bachelorette party in Scottsdale.
1. Hiking
Scottsdale’s beautiful topography makes for fun adventures and great views. There are trails to suit all levels of experience. AllTrails has filters to help you find one that works best for your group.
Some easy, under 2 hour hikes are the Granite Mountain Loop and the Saguaro Loop & Nature Trail.
If you’re up for something on the moderately challenging side, Pinnacle Peak Trail and Gateway Loop Trail are 4 miles and 4.4 miles respectively. No matter your route, you really can’t go wrong when it comes to the Arizona landscape.
2. Public Art & Mural Tour
Choose from a portfolio of beautiful Scottsdale murals and locations to visit on a mural tour in Old Town Scottsdale. JoyRidesAZ offers fun, open-air rides starting in the morning and lasting 60 to 90 minutes.
Your guide will be happy to take your group’s photos in front of your favorite backdrops, bump your favorite music, and point out local sites along the way. JoyRidesAZ charges $55 per person (not including gratuity/fees), and can accommodate groups of varying sizes.
3. Goat Yoga
There are baby goats involved, need we say more? Take a drop-in class for $20 per person.
4. Party Biking Around Town
Now is your chance to show off your drinking and biking prowess all at once. Arizona Party Bike provides coolers, ice, and cups, and you can buy your booze in their on-site store, or pre-order it on their website. They offer private group trips lasting 2 hours for $499, or individual seats on the Old Town Pub Crawl bike for $49 per person. (Alcohol purchases are additional.)
5. Hot Air Balloons
A sunrise hot air balloon ride might be just the way to start one of your bachelorette party days in Scottsdale. But make sure you have something low-key planned for the night before — you’ll need to get an early start for this.
Firebird Balloons charges $175 per person for a shared group ride, but they also offer private rides for small groups, and you can get a quote for your dates here.
6. Desert Jeep Tour
Go off-roading in the Sonoran Desert with the gang. Scottsdale Adventure Tours has a Bachelorette Party option for $125 per person, where up to 14 people can sit together in the same Jeep. You can BYOB (as long as it’s not glass) and you’ll take in all the desert’s beauty (and maybe even a glorious sunset) over the two-hour ride.
