Totally Fascinating

We drove 2-1/2 hours from Phoenix for this tour and we weren’t disappointed. The tour was led by passionate volunteers and gives one a real glimpse into a time capsule. Highly recommend.

Not the safest place, but cool

I've never been to a public place that only has one way out and no fire control system in there. Not only did not have one back then but it doesn't have one now. Plus it probably has lead paint. Otherwise the tour was cool...More

What a wonderful tour! Absolutely worth the price of admission. Even the intro video before the tour was informative. There was a short wait to get on the next available tour for us, so I'd recommend calling ahead or booking your tickets online in advance....More

Interesting if you like military history

The tour consists of a 20 minute video then a walk down 55 steps to the missile. I ended up taking the elevator which was easy. Once in the installation you are in the command center for 20 minutes learning the history, and then another...More

Interesting if you're into the Cold War

In order to access the grounds other than the gift shop area, you have to go on the tour. The tour starts with a 15 minute video. Then you're led outside and they explain what the objects seen above ground are used for. If you're...More

See a real Titan Missle

They give quite a good tour here. Surprising to find that it is just a local site. Very safe, but with stairs and an optional elevator. See what it was like during the Cold War when two people sat with keys to determine the fate...More

Good history lesson and indoor activity

Ah yes, duck and cover. For those of us old enough to remember the Cold War it is a reminder of the brinksmanship played by both sides. For those younger it is a lesson in the value of diplomacy (or assured mutual destruction, depending on...More

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

December 9, 2018|

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!!!

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.
