Mike's knowledge of the desert plants and the history of Tucson was fantastic! We would do this tour again with other family members! Thank you Mike!

We had Mike as our guide, he was great! He told us a lot about the history of Tucson, was very kind and give us enough time to see and explore everything. Highly recommend this tour if you plan to visit Tucson!

Mike provided us a private tour for the day as we were the only people signed up for the tour that day. We were able to see so many things on the drive to and from the sites! The timing was perfect, about 3 hours at the museum, 30 minutes at the church and 30 minutes at the national park.
