A self-guided tour includes the church and cemetery, mortuary chapel, portions of the convent area, a patio garden and a visitors center/museum.

The Tumacacori Fiesta, held the first weekend in December, features the crafts and foods of the Apache, Mexican/Spanish, Pima, Tohono O'odham and Yaqui cultures.

Picnic facilities are available. Allow one hour minimum for your visit.

Opened 8-5 daily except Thanksgiving and December 25. Located 19 miles north of Nogales on I-19.
