For many travelers, no trip to Arizona would be complete without a look at cowboy & ranching history.
Southwest Odyssey Tours' Valleys, Vaqueros, & Vineyards tour takes you back to a time where ranching, railroads, and mining built the Southwest. As you travel you will gain an authentic, inside look at the life, sights, and tastes of this important historical era. Explore the scenic Mountain Empire region in your tour vehicle as you see willow and walnut forests, cottonwood, and magnificent Arizona Oaks. At a historic cattle ranch experience the hard life vaqueros led and the geological obstacles that made ranching a difficult and dangerous profession. Then taste the cuisine of the Northern Sonoran Desert prepared by locals who will share their culinary history. Finally, with an elevation of over 5,000 feet, nearby Sonoita produces some of the best wine in the United States. Taste the different vintages exclusive to this area at one of the select boutique wineries you will visit.
