Things To Do

Saguaro National Park East

Saguaro National Park West

Colossal Cave Road

Where we spent out first date! Recommend a light jacket and closed toed shoes! The normal tour is not strenuous, be prepared for stairs and uneven surfaces. If you are feeling extra adventurous, call ahead to book a splunking tour to really explore the cave!

Tohono Chul - Tucson's Botanical Garden

Casino Del Sol

Feeling lucky?

Downtown

Come explore the downtown scene of Tucson. Some of our favorite stops include The Hub, Reilly's Pizza or La Cocina for dinner and drinks, the HUB creamery for dessert. If you are in the mood for late night fun, check out Highwire for a fun, low-key, elevated cocktail environment, or HIFI if you're craving a party.

Mount Lemmon

Come take a scenic drive up to the top of Mt. Lemmon. Drive takes about an hour, be prepared for a windy route if you are motion sickness prone. Along the way see different terrains the Southwest has to offer as the elevation increases. Once at the top, see all the beautiful camping areas, hiking options, cabins, and cute town. Really want a view? Catch a ride on the ski-lift at Snowbowl to see incredible views of the moutains and national park forest. Need a snack? Check out the Cookie Cabin for awesome pizza and cookies... We recommend a light jacket, comfortable shoes and the safety necessities if you are hiking!

Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum

Come explore the Sonoran desert and some of it's animal inhabitants! We recommend packing a lunch or snack, closed toed shoes, sunscreen and refillable water bottles!

Mi Nidito

Craving Mexican food? Like REAL Mexican food? Look no further. There is no call ahead list and the waits can be long, but worth it! Some of our favorites include enchiladas, fajitas and guacamole.

El Güero Canelo Restaurant

Craving a famous Sonoran Dog or street tacos? Come experience one of the first local Taco Trucks that has grown to multi-site restaurant locations. Featured on the Food Network and a recent James Beard Award recipient, you will not be dissapointed. Some of our favorites include the Sonoran Dog, Carne Asada tacos and a carmelo. Dont forget a Mexican Coke or Horchata to wash it all down.

Arizona Zipline Adventures

Goodness Fresh Food and Juice Bar

Iris' personal favorite. Fresh juices, smoothies and food to power you through, or replenish you from a hike or day of Tucson exploring.

La Cocina | Downtown Tucson Restaurant - Bar - Live Music

Super cool outdoor atmosphere for light fare, drinks, live music, etc. Weather permitting, this would be a great stop in the Downtown area that is family friendly.
