Enjoying Tucson, Arizona Business Travel

While you're visiting the Tucson, Arizona area for business travel, you might consider squeezing in some extra time for a little Tucson sightseeing. Might as well kill two birds with one stone, right?

Definitely, consider walking through the historical downtown district (or at least the amount you have time for). When putting possible stops in your list of choices, consider fitting in at least a few of the following: the Arizona Historical Museum Downtown, Old Town Artisans (filled with Southwester crafts), La Casa Cordova, Tucson Museum of Art (housing collections of pre-Columbian and Western art as well as contemporary works), Romero House, Corbett House, Stevens House, Fish House, Julius Kruttschnidt House, Steinfeld House, and Owl's Club Mansion.

And even if you're focused on business, you have to eat! So, take a break at El Charro Cafe, Tucson's oldest Mexican restaurant. Then, sneak off to Plaza de las Armas, Pima County Courthouse, La Placita Village, the Tucson Convention Center, Sosa-Carillo-Fremont House, El Tiradito, Elysian Grove Market, Temple of Music and Art, St. Augustine Cathedral, Carnegie Library, Etherton Gallery, and Hotel Congress. At least you'll come away with Tucson with at least some memories that don't involve work.

If you have time for a guided tour, consider touring with 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.

Impress your coworkers when you make it back home with what you've learned and seen after taking 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.

Don't let the Tucson area distract you from your work entirely, but be sure to take advantage of your trip to the area and don't let the most popular attractions slip away without you ever viewing them. Take some time off to visit a few or many; it will be worth your while.
