Things To Do
Saguaro National Park
AZ
Please bring extra water; sun coverage is a must, especially in May! That said, it's an Arizona classic. Come here to take in the majestic Saguaros.
Tohono Chul | Gardens, Galleries, and Bistro
7366 North Paseo Del Norte, Tucson, AZ 85704
It is an excellent place for lunch and to browse local art in the galleries and shops.
Catalina State Park
11570 North Oracle Road, Tucson, AZ 85737
A family favorite for hiking. There are beautiful views and relatively flat trails.
Mercado San Agustin
100 South Avenida del Convento, Tucson, AZ 85745
My family loves coming here for tacos at Seis Kitchen (which also has an Oro Valley location), and for tres leches at the bakery.
San Xavier del Bac Mission
1950 West San Xavier Road, Tucson, AZ 85746
This Catholic mission was established in the late 1700s in the Tohono O'odaham Nation, which has a fascinating history and offers the opportunity to visit a reservation.
