A Historical Walking Tour of Downtown Tucson. This historical walk, designed as a loop, begins and ends at the intersection of Church and Washington Streets, the north-east corner of Tucson’s historic presidio. The complete walk (about 2 1/2 miles in length) takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours, but it can, of course, be done in segments, beginning and ending wherever you like.

More than 20 restaurants are within a few blocks of the walk, providing plenty of opportunities for lunch or a break. Most of the sites on the tour are marked with historical plaques that provide additional information. Enjoy this walk through the heart of our city, which has expanded out from the adobe fort that was its beginning.

Just follow the turquoise striped path to visit each NUMBERED site. Sites designated with LETTERS are not directly on the tour, but are interesting locations that can be viewed from the tour route or are close by.
