General
Tucson Questions and Answers
I am thinking of relocating to
your city, can you suggest any good
Tucson Real Estate
agents?
For finding Real Estate in
Tucson, there is a very good website you can go to
called
tucsonhomesales.com where you can search for property that meets your
specifications. Good Luck.
How expensive are hotels in
Tucson and can you suggest any?
Hotel prices vary considerably
in Tucson with a lot depending on the time of
year you are
coming. (Generally we have higher rates in the Winter and
Spring).
Hotel Congress is a very popular downtown hotel that dates
back to the 1920's.
As far a top-end hotel, there is the
Arizona Inn which takes up almost a full
block in a wealthy
residential neighborhood. It is secluded and relaxing with
well groomed grounds. There's also a great restaurant, sauna,
and exercise
room too.
What is the weather like in
Tucson?
Temperatures in Tucson often
hover in between 70 and 80 degrees during the
Winter but can
reach well over 100 in the summer. The surrounding mountains
however offer year-round respite as Sabino Canyon, 15 miles
northeast of
downtown is a popular
getaway.
Any good sights I can see while
strolling through downtown Tucson?
In downtown Tucson, you can
stroll through craft stores and old 19th century
buildings in the
Presidio Historic District. The Tucson Museum of Art is also
well worth seeing with its 20th century works of western
art.
My friend and I are biking
enthusiasts, what can you suggest as far as
bicycling through
Tucson?
Bikes are a fantastic way of
getting around Tucson. You can rent one at Fair
Wheel at
1110 E 6th st and then ride it across the Diamondback Bicycle
Pedestrian Bridge, just east of downtown, which takes you over the
Broadway
Blvd traffic via a rattlesnake metal
sculpture.
