When Nature Calls - Exploring the Sonoran Desert

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!

Both of us agreed that Mike,,was an excellent host and source of information concerning the history and natural history of this unique and wonderful part of our country. Further he was an excellent driver and we enjoyed his personal attention to our interests and questions. We highly recommend this trip and Mike as a guide.

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.

Mike was very knowledgeable and it was a great day. I personally would have liked a little more time at the Saguaro National Park for a hike and a little more time at the mission for a tour

The Sonoran Desert Museum was a great experience. Very informative. The cactus varieties and the historical significance are not widely known.

Mike is really friendly, flexible and knowledgable about Tucson. We had a lot of time to visit the Desert Museum. It's really convenient to also get by Old Tucson, Saguaro National Park, Mission San Xavier del Bac, and Gates Pass. The van is comfortable and Mike keeps us entertaining with historical contexts of the different destinations. I 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tucson!

This was the highlight of my Tucson trip! Mike is so friendly and has an immense wealth of knowledge about Tucson and Arizona in general. It really helps provide context for how the city and state grew to what we now know today - which allows you to truly appreciate where you are. I would hands down recommend this to anyone and would even consider going back on the same tour - it was that beneficial.

All of the stops are interesting and worth the time. We appreciated having ample time to explore the Sonoran Desert. Mike has a wealth of information about the history of the area and the many colorful characters who helped shape it.

First time in Tucson as a family, we decided to take a guided tour for our first day, getting to know the area so we could better fill the next days. Mike was wonderful. A life-long resident, he shares wonderful stories of the history of the things you pass and see. Some people are born to do certain things: Mike was born to welcome visitors to his home city. It was a true pleasure.
