Tucson mixes street art and gastronomy


Southern Arizona reveals treasures that have nothing to envy the iconic Grand Canyon and Monument Valley. Between cities and desert landscapes, western scenery and gastronomy, the south of the state is a territory of history, conducive to adventure.

Known as Old Pueblo, Tucson City is a two-hour drive from Phoenix in southern Arizona. Cradle of the agricultural history of the United States, the city bears witness to a rich agricultural heritage. It is also the result of a mixture of Indian, Spanish, Mexican and American cultures.

The city is famous for its street art works that illustrate its history. The first frescoes date back to the 1970s with the creation of the Mexican muralist movement.

Tucson’s heritage is also reflected in its gastronomy, which is recognized by UNESCO in the classification of American Creative Cities.

This recognition is due in particular to its rich and varied cuisine, a blend of Mexican flavours, products and ingredients from the Sonora desert or inherited from Spanish colonization and traditional recipes that characterize southwestern cuisine.

Around Tucson, several ranches welcome couples and families for all-inclusive stays, with horseback rides for all levels (Tanque Verde Ranch, White Stallion Ranch, Price Canyon Ranch).
