Wilder Westen: Tombstone & San Xavier – Arizona's Legenden erleben!

We had a wonderful fun day! Our tour guide Taffy was attentive and pleasant. She was always asking if we were able to hear her or if the ac was okay! The San Xiever and Tombstone was fun! We didn’t feel rushed and learned a lot Arizona history! Would highly recommend when in Tucson!

We had a wonderful time. Our guide Tafe was a fountain of information. We learned so much about Arizona. The trip was comfortable and we had a lot of fun!

I was in Arizona for a quick trip to Tucson last weekend. While my friends were busy working a local home show, I had plenty of time to get out and explore. A bit of research before the trip revealed how close Tombstone is to Tucson, so I decided to make a full day adventure out of it and I’m so glad I did! Jeff picked me up promptly at Starbucks, and I soon learned I was the only guest on the tour that day. A solo tour was a bit unexpected, but it turned out to be a real treat and I received the full personalized experience! Jeff was absolutely wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He made me feel at ease right away, and we chatted about the history of Tucson, the stunning San Xavier Mission, and the town of Tombstone during our drive that lasted about an hour and twenty minutes or so. The OK Corral reenactment is a fun experience for anyone interested in the Wyatt Earp story and comes with your tour! I highly recommend watching the classic film Tombstone (1993) and the more recent Netflix docudrama Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War (2024) beforehand for a little historical context. If you’re planning to visit Tombstone, I suggest mapping out your "must see" spots in advance, as there is a lot to experience, and time flies once you’re there! I stopped for lunch at The Longhorn (the Diablo Burger is *delish!*), and still had plenty of time afterward to wander, take photos, and soak in the atmosphere. On the way back to Tucson, we made a quick stop at Boothill Graveyard, which was a fascinating and fitting way to end the day. Overall, this was a fantastic little side trip and exactly what I needed. I highly recommend adding this tour to your Tucson itinerary!

Very interesting to learn about the history and experience some of it in Tombstone. The visit to San Xavier was also great with lots of interesting facts on how it was established. Mike was excellent. His knowledge on the area and the history was top class. I will definitely recommend this tour from Tucson.

Overall we enjoyed the places we visited. By the description, I was hoping for a more interactive experience with the tour guide. Our tour guide was super nice and knowledgeable and answered all our questions. He talked to us about the history to and from the destinations. Essentially, the guide serves as a driver to the destinations. We were dropped off at the mission and given about 30-45 minutes to explore. We then went to Tombstone and were given around 2 hours 45 min/3 hours to explore. What was included in the price of our experience was the OK Corral reenactment, admission to the Historama next door, and a self guided tour of the courthouse. The stage coach and mines mentioned in the description are extra fees if you want to do them. We didnt have time to do everything we wanted and didnt have time to do the historama. In hindsight, we probably would have made the drive ourselves so we could spend the time at the places that we wanted since it was self-guided for the most part. Again, our driver was very nice and gave us some info along the way, so no complaints there. Just wanted to provide honest feedback for those considering this trip.

Very enjoyable and educational day spent touring the Tucson area, Tombstone, San Xavier and so much more. Our driver and tour guide, Jeff did and incredible job and we would highly recommend this tour.

The itinerary Viator posts is not accurate-30 min at church and 2 hrs in Tombstone. We only had time to eat and rush to see the shoot out at OK Corral and then leave. I recommend packing a lunch because you can get bar food anywhere, but you cannot see the old town of Tombstone unless you are here. We did get 15 minutes in the graveyard when we left. The tour is very interesting and our tour guide was very good as well. The drive by attractions are nice to see and hear about. I would recommend picking a different tour and exploring Tombstone on your own. There are so many tours available in this beautiful area. Viator needs to update their itinerary so it matches what the local provider can accommodate.

Glad we took the tour from Tucson because we learned many fun facts about things along the way. Thanks Jeff for your patience and knowledge.

Back to the Border Gate to night and the Sirloin Steak was very nice. The server Amelia was friendly and helpful. Nothing was a problem to her.

We had an amazing tour with 5 people, counting my wife. Jeff took his time explaining EVERYTHING and showing us out-of-towners the Arizona experience. I highly recommend this tour. Small and personal. Better than driving ourselves. Sit back, relax and enjoy!!
