Stingray Touch at Desert Museum

Gabriel Alcaraz, 9, smiles as a baby Atlantic cownose ray swims up for a visit at the new Stingray Touch exhibit at Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.Β 

The weather is getting nicer and the holiday season is coming quickly.

That means it's time to visit (or revisit) some of Tucson's best attractions, especially if you're expecting visitors.

You can do that on the cheap with the newest Tucson Attractions Passport, which is available now for $20 and includes up to $400 in savings. Β 

"The Book of Fun" includes 42 two-for-one admission deals and 19 other deals at places like the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, Biosphere 2, Colossal Cave Mountain Park, Old Tucson and the Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures.

A Haunted Mansion by Bill Langford looms in the Enchanted Realm Gallery at The Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures, 4455 East Camp Lowell Drive.

New additions to this year's passport include the Historic Hotel Congress, Oro Valley Aquatic Center, Rialto Theatre and Tucson Improv Movement.

The Rialto Theatre will be hopping on New Year's Eve. Tickets on sale now.

The book is available online hereΒ in digital form or you can pick one up at the Southern Arizona Attractions Alliance Sales Office, which is at 660 S. Country Club Road or the Tucson Visitor Center inside the UA Visitor Center at 811 N. Euclid Ave.

You can also get one at many of the area attractions, museums and hotels. Click here for a list.
