When sightseeing in the Tucson area, be a part of a tour to the Grand Canyon. If you'd like to tour by bus, consider the Gray Line charter bus tour, specializing in Grand Canyon tours. Choose from 2 or 3-day packages and view anything from the Sonoran Desert Museum to Tombstone.
Also, through Gray Line, take a city tour through Old Pueblo Tuscon. On this tour, you'll visit San Xavier del Bac Misson and Barrio Historica. Enjoy wonderful views, and capture them on camera, of Tucson, visiting Old Town Artisans, with unique shops and restaurants. Walk through historical downtown areas like Snob Hollow and the Garden of Gethsemane. Visit the Historic University of Arizona Campus and University District.

If you're interested in seeing other parts of the Tucson area, consider South of the Border Tours. Choose from the Sonora Nautral History Tour, the Kino Sonora Mission Tour, or the Patzcuaro tour, where you'll experience the rich culture and history of the region.
On the Sonora Natural History Tour, you'll discover the natural history and culture of Sonora, focusing on Sierra de Alamos and the mangrove estuary of Yavaros. With its southern extension of the Sonoran Desert and the northern limit of the tropics, this region is unique. Enjoy the commentary of Robin Baxeter during your tour in one of the most biologically diverse areas in North America.
On the Kino Sonora Mission Tour, you'll particularly look at the Pimeria Alta (land of the upper Pima Indians).
