Nogales

From Tucson we travelled west through Saguaro National Park and then south towards the Mexican border. Our first stop was at Old Tucson Studios to experience a bit of the Wild West, after which we visited San Xavier and Tumcacori Missions. That evening our very gracious hosts in Nogales took us over the border to experience the Day of the Dead as celebrated by their Mexican neighbours.
​
Returning to Tucson next day, we passed through Patagonia, had a tour the Kartchner Caverns, and ended by driving through east end of Saguaro NP at sunset.
