Great experience- staring with Nelson Ghost town, then heading to Oatman, AZ, onto Route 66, and seeing Lake Mead overlook. Incredible guide who was very impressive by explaining and the knowledge and passion for the travel and sightseeing. Thank you! Cannot recommend enough!

A great day back to the future: start with Nelson and the 19th century, then Oatman and finally Kingman, all with a guide at the top. We talked a lot all the way:)
