Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson — view 2
The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum is a unique combination of a zoo, botanical garden, art gallery, and natural history museum focused on the biodiversity of the Sonoran Desert. Founded in 1952, the 98-acre site features pathways winding through desert landscapes where visitors can observe local wildlife, including roadrunners and Gila monsters, in natural habitats. Plan for at least half a day to fully explore the exhibits and trails. Mornings are particularly lovely for cooler temperatures and active animals. The museum is located just west of Saguaro National Park, making it easy to visit both in one trip. Keep an eye out for the striking desert flora along the paths.

    Explore Saguaro National Park with a downloadable audio guide for a scenic drive through iconic cacti and rich history.

    The Self-Guided Driving Audio tour was, in my view, the ideal way to explore Saguaro National Park. Hearing descriptions of our surroundings proved very helpful, especially for identifying scenic viewpoints and trails. We gained insights into the park's history and the lives of its early inhabitants, as well as the local flora and fauna. Instead of just driving through and wondering about the unique plants and animals, the audio tour enriched our experience. The visitor center was also a valuable stop.G3769PIchristinew on the Self-guided driving audio tour of Saguaro National Park tour
