Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Jerome and surrounding area.
Jason was a very good tour guide. He shared many interesting facts about Jerome and surrounding areas. The van we traveled in was quite worn. Torn upholstery and seat belt guide had come apart partially.
The tour was fun, much better than just trying to drive around without a guide. The guide, Don, was knowledgeable and very friendly. I would recommend it.

It was beautiful to see. Jason the guide was great. It was pretty laid back. It was nice to have the time to eat lunch in Jerome and have an hour to walk through the stores and explore. It would of been nice to see down into one of the mines
Great experience learning about the history of the town. We enjoyed lunch and shopping in Jerome as well.
I would recommend the tour to anyone visiting and wanting to learn more about the history of Jerome. Jason was awesome. His knowledge of the mine, historic buildings, culture and surrounding areas was the best 2hr we experienced.
