About This Deal
We offer 3 Audio Tour Packages of select Tucson attractions. When you purchase a package, you will gain 10 days of access to the narrated audio tours which include the historic stories & fascinating tales, plus my "interesting tidbits" on select Tucson attractions. The historic stories are narrated over multiple still photos of the attraction and are put together as a video. To uncover my "interesting tidbits" and historical stories, I spent many hours researching the history of these attractions at the Arizona Historical Society & in other historical records. While many of these attractions are free to visit, some do require admission. Please note, that admission is NOT included with the purchase of these historical story audio tours. While you can go inside many of these attractions, some are private homes or offices with historic architecture, and the historic stories can be enjoyed from outside along the sidewalk.
