A person can take a tour to see the missile area. You can go down by elevator or stairs. If you need to take the stairs it is best to call and make a reservation for that. There are 55 stairs. Before you go downstairs...More

Hot destination for Cold-War History - Must-See for all ages!

If you lived through "duck & cover" drills, and want your grandchildren to get a sense of what those scary times were like, take the time to travel 1/2 hr. south of Tucson to visit this historic site. Brilliant presentation of why the Titan II...More

Are there tours or buses that take you to the museum from Tucson?

AnswerShow all 7 answers

It’s not far from the city of Tucson - I would recommend calling the museum to see what options they recommend to visit if you do not have your own transportation- it’s a great place to visit!!!

fstsai

how long should I allocate for the Museum to just see most interesting things? THANKS.

About 2 hours, a half hour before and a half hour after, this museum is a must see historical site.

Will there be too many people on Saturday (of a long weekend) afternoon? How long is the wait or the risk of missing it altogether?

Regret delay with answer. The Museum is one of the top attractions in Pima County (Tucson area). There is always a chance of a wait especially on the week ends.
