ARIZONA SONORA DESERT MUSEUM

Part museum, part zoo, the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum is a place where you can learn and see desert animals, flora, and fauna in their natural setting. Docents (guides) are on hand to greet, teach, and give tours so that you will better understand the desert environment.

"Probably the most distinctive zoo in the United States.
It is a combination of museum, zoo, botanical garden, and nature trail.
One of a kind, not to be missed"
- The New York Times

"Whether you take a picture for fun or career, this wonderful
destination should absolutely be on your top 10 list."
- Best Places to Photograph Wildlife in North America Magazine

SAN XAVIER MISSION

Mission San Xavier del Bac is situated in the Santa Cruz Valley nine miles south of Tucson Arizona. Framed in the warm browns of the surrounding hills and the violet shadows of more distant mountains, it rises, brilliantly white from the desert floor of dusty green mesquite and sage. The imposing dome and lofty towers, the rounded parapets and graceful spires etched against the vivid blue complete a skyline fraught with a gracefull enchantment.


PIMA AIR & SPACE MUSEUM

The Pima Air & Space Museum opened to the public in May 1976 with
75 aircraft on display. Since then the museum collection has grown
to over 250 aircraft occupying 80 acres of land. The entire museum
property covers about 150 acres.
