Great place for lunch, dinner or brunch. Nestled at the base of the Santa Catalina Mountain Range, Hacienda Del Sol is a relaxing refuge with breathtaking views and storied history. Brunch on Sunday is awesome and includes a large buffet. Make sure to book on the "grill" side, which is a bit more formal but offers better views.

A very quaint place with a unique ambiance both inside and outside. The outside patio can be used year-round and looks like a stylish Mediterranean resort. Love this place for brunch and drinks.

Newly renovated restaurant with a charming bar and backyard. Lots of old world style, newly interpreted. If there is no space, the place next door is just as nice and features an in-house bakery and food store.

A place definitely worth a visit, just a few blocks away. I love the design of the newly renovated place and the food (mostly Italian) is outstanding. If there is no space in the front or if you prefer a more quiet place, you can walk right through to the cafe in the back where you can have the same menu (order at the counter). I also recommend the pastries and coffee.

Just around the corner is Speedway Antique Mall - a must visit place for antique treasure hunting. You will almost certainly find what you're looking for (or didn't even know you needed) because the selection is so vast. The mall contains dozens of small booths with local finds and quality items.

Shopping and groceries

My close-by favorites are Sprouts Farmers Market and Trader Joes. If you need a larger store, Fry’s is pretty close and has everything you’d need.

The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum is must-see in Tucson. This is not only a beautiful park but a zoo, botanical garden, art gallery and history museum in one. I highly recommend it. https://g.page/azdesertmuseum?share

A National Historic Landmark, San Xavier Mission was founded as a Catholic mission by Father Eusebio Kino in 1692. Construction of the current church began in 1783 and was completed in 1797. The oldest intact European structure in Arizona, the church's interior is filled with marvelous original statuary and mural paintings. It is a place where visitors can truly step back in time and enter an authentic 18th Century space.

It takes about 45 minutes to drive up Mount Lemmon. It's a scenic drive through cacti and as you get closer to the top you'll get some of the most amazing views. It also is about 10 degrees colder on top of the mountain. Make sure you gas up before you start.
