Exceptional guest service is another highlight, aiming to meet your individual objectives for the tour.

As you ascend, the guide elaborates on the street's historical significance, pausing at Joseph Muheim's house to discuss his contributions. Next, you explore Brewery Gulch, known for its blend of architecture and historical events, pausing at Muhiem's Bar for an in-depth look.

We then move to another pit section showcasing remnants of leaching ponds. The guide explains how copper is extracted from ore through leaching, adding depth to your understanding of mining science. We also delve into the socio-cultural aspects, discussing nearby closed mining communities and their historical context along with future mining prospects. This attraction offers an intricate view of mining operations, from large-scale setups to minute chemical processes, all set against the backdrop of stunning landscapes.

5.00Travis is an experienced tour guide of Bisbee and the surrounding areas as he was born and raised in Bisbee so we got to learn first hand how people in Bisbee lived before the mines closed. He took his time and answered all our questions about Bisbee’s history. I’d book this tour again.
What a fun tour !

5.00This was a great tour! Me and my friend were picked up at our hotel by our guide in his Jeep. He grew up in Bisbee so he knew the place like the back of his hand, and had tons of knowledge. He drove us around on small back streets and up and down every area and then out to Lavender Pit and Lowell. It was even a bit longer than two hours. Our guide was so very nice and easy to talk to. It was like getting a guided tour with an old friend. I definitely recommend doing this tour.
Don’t miss it!

5.00Great behind the scenes tour! Travis is a local who took us to places we would not have ventured to on our own. He gave us lots of history and shared stories of his life growing up in Bisbee.
