Mission Tours

With the permission of the Parish, the Patronato San Xavier is pleased to offer docent-led tours of Mission San Xavier to the public on a donation basis. These Public Tours generally take place several times a day, Monday through Saturday. Our docents are community volunteers trained in the history, architecture, and culture of the Mission and its surroundings, as well as the interior and exterior conservation and preservation work of the Patronato. Each tour is approximately 30 minutes, begins at the museum entrance, and requires no advance registration. Please note that in order to comply with Parish directives to preserve the Church as a sacred space for worshippers, tours take place on Mission grounds but do not include the Church interior. All visitors are welcome to visit the Church on their own before or after a tour.

 

Docent Tour Schedule

Tours are offered Monday through Friday and, when possible, on Saturday. However tour times vary by season, and may vary by day of week. As we work to rebuild our Docent program following Covid, there may be times when no Docent is available and tours cannot be offered.
