Ever wanted to visit the building near Sky Harbor Airport that looks like a wedding cake? This place has become so popular that they had to institute a lottery system for tickets. Fortunately I was able to get group tickets for two tours each with 12 people. If you go the engineers in you will realize why they had to strengthen the floors and see if you can find the eggs.
Tours are approximately 2 hours and include the historic Castle's main floor and basement, extensive grounds and cactus gardens surrounding the Castle. Most of the tour is outside riding a tram so dress warm. The tour starts at 10.30 am and the grounds are cool. The tour is wheel chair accessible but no electric scooters are allowed. There are seats inside the building to rest so it is not a strenuous tour.
Guests are greeted by Tovrea Carraro Society volunteers at the Visitor Center and taken through the Carraro Cactus Gardens on a tram with a docent. The tour winds through the beautiful 44 acres, viewing the outer buildings, before arriving at Tovrea Castle.
WHEN: Friday, February 6th OR February 13th.
10:30 - 12:30pm
WHERE: The ride starts at Granada Park (6505 N. 20th St.) and ends at G.R. Herberger Park (5802 E. Indian School)
