Tours Track Tony Hillerman Mystery Sites

The Arizona Republic recently ran an article on the Hillerman Country Tours that takes visitors on a tour of sites featured or described in Tony Hillerman mysteries. Hillerman is the author of the Jimmy Chee and Joe Leaphorn mystery series set on the reservations of northeastern Arizona and northwestern New Mexico.

The tours cover more than 1,100 miles and extend over four days, taking participants from Phoenix to the Grand Canyon; the Hopi, Navajo and Zuni reservations; Canyon de Chelly; Chaco Canyon; trading posts and various villages and towns. Most of them are strategic locations in Hillerman's books.

For fans of the Hillerman series, or just the southwest US in general, this tour sounds like a wonderful way to see the area and experience the beautiful environment described in the books.
