Private Tombstone Arizona and San Xavier Mission Day Trip

To be frank, it's a a long drive from Scottsdale to Tombstone. But once you get there the history is fascinating, the true facts are enlightening and everything and everybody in Tombstone is a delight. We really appreciated our driver, Tracy, who was so nice, so accommodating and an excellent driver. It was a fun, relaxing day trip.

Nate was an excellent driver/guide who adapted the day to our needs. We saw the Boneyard, tombstone bisbee and Lowell His knowledge in particular of the Native American Indians was terrific 5 stars to Nate

Had a fantastic day out with Nate our tour guide, we were driven around in the most comfortable of cars....this is the way to make memories to last a lifetime! He kept us thoroughly entertained and enlightened our our long drive there and back. We were picked up at 6 45am and then driven first to Saint Xavier, a stunning American South Western church. We had 90 minutes to take in the stunning architecture and explore the museum. Then we hit the road to drive to Tombstone and as a Brit I loved seeing the iconic place names on our drive. We arrived and was taken first to the Old Courthouse, the entrance fee was included in our private tour cost. This was one of the highlights of the tour, really gave us a sense of the history of Tomstone. Next Nate recommended Big Nose Kate's Saloon for lunch as he was not wrong. Great food, great atmostphere and great prices, loved it. We then had some free time before one of the gunfighter shows so we went on a stagecoach ride, great value at $8 each. Did some shopping and then headed to the show, we did the comedy one, would have liked to have done both shows, our only regret of the day. I think as it was quiet tourist wise, the show frequency times were reduced? We then drove off to Boot Hill, the cost also included in our tour fee. Very historic and goosebump making, real history in front of your eyes. Nate was a credit to the Detours company and we were so happy that we had him as our guide. Ask for Nate! We arrived back in Phoenix at 7.pm and can honestly say that the previous 12 hours were some of the best we have ever had and worth every penny of the cost of our private tour. Thank you Detours!

Was an amazing tour. Tour Guide Mark was excellent and offered amazing commentary not just of Tombstone but of Arizona and the southern parts particularly. Anybody with an interest in the history of the west should definately take this tour

Great communication and on time pickup from our hotel. Dan had answers for all of our questions about the scenery and could name all the mountains and plants/trees along the way. San Xavier Mission is a must see as well as tombstone. Will definitely use Detours again next time we are in AZ!
