ARIZONA SONORA DESERT MUSEUM REVIEWS
The Desert Museum is much more than a zoo, or a museum. It is truly sublime. I think it is a religious, holy place. You can experience the beauty and majesty of the desert through all of your senses. It's visually stunning, with colors and textures. It's also wonderful to be able to hear the winds of the desert through the various trees and shrubs. The calls of the birds, too. And if you're lucky, the call of a mountain lion or wolf. I am in awe. You can have the Louvre or the Sistine Chapel. I love it here. Thanks to everyone involved in this masterpiece.
Everyone in Tucson should come and visit this place. It is a fantastic experience for everyone. If it is summer be aware that most of the museum is outside. Bring water, a hat, and comfortable shoes. Extremely educational and interactive. I spent the entire day here. They going to start staying open late to enjoy the magnificent sunsets. This is the perfect place to witness the earth being painted before your eyes. Enjoy!!
This place was amazing. So much to see. I really like that it all has a flow to it and you won’t feel like you missed out on it. There are multiple animal and botanical exhibits. A great place to spend the day

REID PARK ZOO REVIEWS
This zoo is fantastic, I have been a member for a few years, and my kids and I always have a great time. They are doing a lot of expanding right now so there is some construction, but once it's done it will be amazing! They even have an indoor learning center in the back of the zoo and they have animal encounters. Just this week my kids have been able to touch and learn about a baby alligator and a lizard. I enjoy seeing the progress they make every time I come out to it! Highly recommend!
Great zoo in an amazing park. There are several new animals so if you haven't been in a while, so check it out. It's a good activity to do with the family that allows for social distancing and gets the kids off the screen. I recommend the membership because if you want to go more than once, it pays for itself, totally worth it.
It was wonderful. The new layout was interesting but the new exhibits were really awesome. Meer Kats, African dogs, the flamingos are cool also. So much to see. Usually takes us about 2 hrs and we love it so much.

PIMA AIR & SPACE MUSEUM REVIEWS
We love Pima Air & Space. It's very interesting, lots to look at, and entertaining for kids. The staff is extremely friendly and anxious to answer any questions. Really tho, the best part is just all the things they have on display to look at. Such history! So glad all this is preserved for generations to share. The place looks so good too, they have done a lot of work and keep it updated and clean and relaxed. We recommend to all to go visit.
What an awesome place. So much to see. The "Flying Fortress" hangar was very interesting. My 5-year-old granddaughter has recently been in the mode of wanting to know more about flying and space. This place held her interest for quite a while. She enjoyed reading about the women in the Arizona section. I found the variety and history found here fantastic.
Pima Air Museum is a great place if you love aviation. They have everything from small civil aviation planes all the way to some of the biggest commercial and military planes made. My favorite was the GE 747 test aircraft and the ANA 787 from Boeing's experimental program. They also had many military aircraft, from bombers to electrical signal blocking aircraft. They also had various presidential and Nasa planes.
