Why take this tour?

Travel back in time on this walking tour through America’s best-preserved Wild West mining boomtown, Tombstone. This circular stroll around the historical town starts and ends in front of the Bird Cage Theater. From there, you’ll walk down Allen Street where I’ll bring the infamous O.K Corral gunfight back to life. I’ll point out where Virgil Earp and Doc Holliday were ambushed by Clantons and McLaurys, and where Virgil’s younger brother, Morgan Earp, was assassinated in revenge for the O.K. Corral killings.

This tour isn’t only about the most famous shootout in the Wild West. I’ll also show you the former Chinese district, Hop Town, and tell you about the district’s boss, China Mary. You’ll hear about the other women of Tombstone like Doc Holliday’s girlfriend Big Nose Kate, Nellie “the Miners’ Angel” Cashman, and San Diego newspaper correspondent, Clara Spaulding Brown. You’ll also learn about the dancehall girls, madams and prostitutes that worked Tombstone’s red-light district.

On this tour, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Learn the difference between a Cow Town and a mining Boom Town
• Hear about the lavish lifestyles in Tombstone during its heyday, including the most opulent hotels and saloons to be found between New York City and San Francisco, all made possible by at least $550 million dollars of silver taken out of the Tombstone mines from 1878 to 1895
• Take in historical buildings like the Crystal Palace and the Cochise County Courthouse which were erected right after the 1882 fire that devastated the town
• Find out about John Heath, whose cause of death was ruled, by officials, as “strangulation, self-inflicted or otherwise”
• See where Tombstone’s “Original Shady Lady,” the world’s largest rose bush, is located at the Rose Tree Museum
• Pass by some of the town’s notable establishments, including Four Deuces Saloon, the Longhorn Restaurant, and Big Nose Kate’s Saloon
• Discover if the world-famous O.K Corral gunfight really lasted only 30-seconds

Join me on this hour-long stroll and let the quirky gun-slinging characters of the town “too tough to die” come to life.
