Brilliant Jerome History Tour
My mum and I did this tour last Thursday with Courtney and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. It was only myself and my mum on this tour and there was no awkwardness there sometimes can be with a small group. Courtney really knew her stuff - you could tell she loved her job and telling people about the history of Jerome. She really knew her stuff and was very approachable answering any questions we had. Would 100% recommend!

If you are in Jerome, do this tour.
Our guide, Courtney, was great. She gave us 2-3 hours of knowledge and stories in 1 hour. Definitely worth the time in this hidden gem of a town.

Jerome Ghost Tours/History Walk
Very informative. Jerome is built into the side of a mountain so it is very steep walking most of the time; but it is well worth the trip. Good restaurants and nice little shops.
