  • Tucson Arizona sits down near the border with Mexico and despite having the second largest population in Arizona, it has the feel of a much smaller place. Admittedly, I filmed this virtual walking tour after about 12 hours in town so my knowledge is limited but we drove around quite a bit and explored.
    We start our treadmill video near the St Augustine Cathedral downtown and make our way over past some incredible murals to the historic 4th street corridor. The first half is nice and refined while 4th street has a more artistic, free living vibe to it.
    Again, I'm speaking naively and I'd love the chance to come down and spend more time in Tucson, exploring and sharing all the great things to do in the area. For one, it's known for its bike opportunities and the infrastructure is obvious.
    I hope you enjoy this city walk live tour of the downtown area. Let me know what you think in the comments section below and be sure to search for more Arizona walks on the website.

    I live in Tucson. Glad you liked it! The streetcar (or tram, as you referred to it) is actually free, same as buses here. The city removed fares after COVID. Tucson is not perfect by any means, but it is beautiful and it has a truly distinct energy that sets it apart from everywhere in the country.

      Hi Beezbo, Thanks so much for the info on the transit system. I really enjoyed our too brief visit to Tucson and would like to go back to explore more. Although it has an edgy feel to it, it also has the feel of a much smaller city which I like. You guys have so much great access to public lands as well. I also envy/admire the commitment to bike infrastructure. Thanks again and can't wait to get back. -H

    I'm 70 years old. At the rear of the St. Augustine Cathedral, is a block building that used to be the Catholic school. I used to go there during my elementary school years. If you would have turned left instead of right on Congress, you would have seen the plaza, where there once was the Mexican movie theater, now a nice park, an old fashioned hacienda patio breakfast restaurant and marketplace.

    I used to live in Tucson. 4th Ave is pretty cool place to walk around, grab food and grab drinks. I've been a bit toasted a few times on 4th Ave....okay, more than a few lol Never really spent much time downtown. Outside of these areas, the city isn't walkable at all. Hope you got to do some desert hiking...it's one of my favorite things to do in AZ. Going back in Sept.

    I was literally just thinking around the 28:23 mark that it seemed a bit like an area that I would feel "unsure of my safety." And then you said..... "It's a little edgy down here, but not unsafe. At least not in appearances....we'll see what happens." 😂
    Perfect timing!
    A lot of nice areas that have clearly been maintained over the years.
    The security dogs jumping up (your reaction) was funny too! 😊
    Awesome 31:19 home!
    Thanks, as always, Henry!
    Your videos are fantastic and it feels like a visit with a treasured friend as we all walk along with you!

    I live in downtown Tucson and next to the Ronstadt bus terminal and it is getting very rough now with fentanyl and many homeless folks. Sad to see this city starting to be a San Francisco runner up as drugs and crime are taking over. Watch your back if you visit Tucson.

    You walked two to three blocks in a town that spans 226 square miles. Although downtown Tucson and the Barrio District are historically and architecturally interesting, they do not reflect anything about the nature of Tucson. I have lived in Tucson for over 50 years. I have hiked the hundreds of trails that surround the city, and I used to bike everywhere including the entire distance of Eastside Tucson to the University of Arizona. I appreciate your small view of the community, and in some observations you are not too far off point; however, Tucson is not represented by a few city blocks with murals.

    A very vibrant busy city. Also seems very clean. I have noticed in the US cities that you have taken us to the planting of trees that takes place in the city centre's. Much more so than here in the Uk. It's a good thing both environmentally and aesthetically. Thanks Henry. One last question. Who looks after Senator Penelope while you are travelling or does she make the trips with you?

    • @CityWalks

    Visited Tucson a month or so ago. Overall it was nice, but was disappointed by all the transients all over the bike path. Made it difficult to ride and safety felt questionable. In fact we headed to Tempe and thoroughly loved Tempe a few hours away. We enjoyed Tempe so much we book another trip. If you haven't hit that Phoenix suburb I highly recommend it.
