Vista del Rio Archaeological Site Free Tour

March 1 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am

On Saturday, March 1, 2025, from 9:00-11:00 am, join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Vista del Rio Archaeological Site Free Tour” guided by archaeologist Allen Dart at the Vista del Rio Cultural Resource Park, 7575 E. Desert Arbors St. (at Dos Hombres Road), Tucson. To celebrate Arizona Archaeology and Heritage Awareness Month, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center offers this free tour by its executive director, archaeologist Allen Dart, to Vista del Rio – an ancient village that was inhabited between 1000 and 1150 CE by people of southern Arizona’s Hohokam archaeological culture. Archaeological excavations at Vista del Rio revealed Hohokam houses, outdoor ovens and pits, and possibly an ancient irrigation canal. These features are no longer visible but in this visit to the park Mr. Dart brings them to life by pointing out subtle clues to their existence.

Reservations are required by 5 pm Thursday February 27: Email info@oldpueblo.org.
