Tucson, AZ Travel Information

Saguaro National Park: It’s impossible to ignore the elegance and stillness of Tucson’s vibrant landscape. Easily recognized, the cactus is the symbol of the desert, which to this day still represents the vastness and wonder of Tucson as a city. Cacti can grow as tall as trees, and while they are somewhat threatened by increasing development and planters, they still don the city as spiky green banners. A stroll in Saguaro National Park will show you just how beautiful this plant truly is. Hiking trails and observation points allow for unforgettable photo opportunities and forest picnics with unbeatable views. If you’re booking flights to Tucson for the joy of natural wonder, and are still aching for more, then consider renting a car and making the 350-mile trek to the triumphant Grand Canyon.

Sometime during your Tucson travel, make a point to visit the University of Arizona’s campus, where buildings steeped in academia are paired with sprawling green space, all containing the city’s future innovators.

Some center around health and fitness, and others master pure relaxation. Spend an hour immersing yourself in a decadent hot stone massage, or treat yourself to a facial, seaweed wrap, or all-over scrub to feel your best. Spend a peaceful day of solitude on your own, or pamper you and someone special by booking a spa day for two.
