Getting to Tucson is part of the adventure!
From coast to coast, every road leads to Tucson! Grab your map, set your GPS, and enjoy the journey as the scenery turns into wide skies, saguaro cacti, and desert magic.
By car
Road trip, anyone? Tucson is an easy and scenic drive from all directions. Set your GPS, cue up your favorite playlist, and enjoy miles of wide-open skies, desert landscapes, and sunshine all the way in.
If you are driving, you can plug your starting point in Google Maps and get driving directions to the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel at Reid Park.
By plane
Flying in? Tucson International Airport (TUS) makes arrival simple and smooth. From the airport, you’re just minutes away from sunshine, saguaros, and your creative desert getaway.
If you’re flying into Tucson, you can pick up an Uber or Lyft at the airport, and they will get you safely to the hotel in no time. It’s as simple as downloading an app, and you’ll be set up to request a ride in minutes. We use them all the time, and they are safe, less expensive and quicker than a taxi.
