Depends on where you fly in. If you fly into Vegas, then obviously you will do Vegas. Death Valley National Park is just a couple hour drive away, as is Hoover Dam.
If you fly into PHX, lots and lots of stuff to see. Our last trip, flying into PHX, we were in N. AZ a little over two weeks -- with two nights in Grand Canyon.
Besides the Grand Canyon, Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon are big attractions, but the entire Northern AZ area is one natural wonder after another. We visited Montezuma's Castle, Walnut Canyon, Wupatki, Petrified Forest, Sunset Crater Volcano Natl Monument, Lower Antelope Canyon (my avatar), Upper Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley, and Four Corners, among others. The last 4 listed are Navajo Nation Parks.
We actually cut short our Grand Canyon visit to spend an extra night in Sedona.
I've never been there, but a friend recommended Meteor Crater, although it's privately owned.
