Whether it be navigating with a GPS to discover desert creatures, going on a photo safari or better yet, meeting real-life adventurers who have discovered new species and traveled to the ends of the earth, the Fairmont Scottsdale in Arizona is making this summer an adventure to remember. Continuing its commitment to responsible tourism—and for “creating memorable vacations for the whole family”—the AAA Five Diamond resort is partnering with National Geographic for the first National Geographic Explorers Camp, exclusively for overnight guests.
 
From May 22 through September 7 of this year, the camp will be filled with fun, discovery-based activities for children ages 5-12, with added events for the entire family. Amping up the excitement, eight world-renowned National Geographic explorers will keynote camp events on special Saturdays throughout the summer.

"We are proud to bring one of the world's largest non-profit, scientific and educational organizations, National Geographic, to Fairmont Scottsdale, offering enriching experiences for our visiting families and their children," said General Manager Robert Foster.
