RV Rental Tucson

Tucson is the USA’s 33rd largest city and its Spanish name means “(at the) base of the black [hill]”, and derives for the basalt-covered hill, Sentinel Peak. As home to the University of Arizona and with more than 120 parks, Tucson has a thriving outdoor community, which is celebrated with lots of fantastic annual festivals and events.

The most famous park is Saguaro National Park, a great destination for RV rental, because it has the tallest cacti in the country. In addition, ancient petroglyphs (rock art), can be seen along many of the hiking trails. This is definitely a place to add to the top of your “to do list”. Along, with the pristine natural trails to hike, like King Trail, you will also experience extraordinary vistas to admire.
