I just recently went to an open house for their new location at 811 N Euclid. It was very nice! The store has a lot to offer as far as brochures and maps on a wide variety of things to do in Tucson as well as how (biking, walking, driving, etc.). There are also items that you can purchase in the store, some for everyday use (umbrellas, sunscreen, etc.), as well as some excellent souvenirs. I have already begun my mental Christmas list with some of these items! And they are very reasonably priced, too. The staff here are very helpful and informed. They really enjoy what they do and it shows! So
