Overview
Jerome’s rich wild west history is one most places can’t compete with, but unless you already know about its booming copper mine during World War I and its ties to Billy the Kid, you’ll really miss out if you go exploring alone. This Wild Wild West Tour of Jerome takes you to historical spots with a local resident that knows the ins and outs of what makes this old-timey town so special.
- Hear about Jerome’s wild west history from a local resident
- Stop by historical landmarks without waiting to see them
- Find out info you wouldn’t otherwise know if exploring solo
- See an old copper mine dating back to 1882 with a guide
What's Included
- Half of the tour is in an air-conditioned vehicle

Courtney gave us a great tour. She really knows her stuff and her passion for Jerome and its history was apparent.
I had never been to or even heard of Jerome - a great little ghost mining town. Our tour guide told us stories that brought the town to life! We had a great time and really came to appreciate the ghost town on the side of the mountain!
Fun! great guide he was very knowledgeable about Jerome! It is easy to park and find meeting place
Good for all ages
It was the most amazing tour! Ed packed in so much history, trivia facts and interesting stories all in one tour. Being a tour guide is more than just a job for Ed, it was clear that he truly appreciates history and finds it fascinating!
Great and Informative tour, we lucked out being the only 2 on it. But a fun little afternoon of learning about a place you never knew existed and hardships about how wild the West was and for longer than you would expect! Ed was an excellent choice of guide, his personality really led us to to delve into some of the towns history! A+ for a off the beaten path chill experience!!;
Ed was super knowledgeable and answered all of our questions! Would definitely recommend if you are visiting Jerome!
Courtney was a great a guide. Very knowledgeable and passionate about Jerome. Lots of history in this small town!
The tour was outstanding. Wish I could remember the name of our tour guide she was spectacular. We got the extended tour and I felt like we got such a bonus. I would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling to the Sedona area!
For a small town, Jerome has a big history. Our guide, Ed, was one of those people who makes history come alive. Some people have the gift of storytelling….he was great! I didn’t realize Jerome was built on the side of a mountain. If you’re not a heights person, don’t look down! LOL
Is a history tour of Jerome. Very informative and interesting to hear the beginning and experiences of the people who established this community.
Great way to learn more about the history of the town of Jerome. Courtney is a fantastic guide and we enjoyed our experience!
Austin was a great tour guide. He knew a lot of history of the town. Was hoping for more Wild West History. It’s a very small reference in the narrative. More walking than expected. The history of Jerome is very interesting, but I was expecting more about The Wild West.
Loved the tour! Our guide knew so much about the history of Jerome. Note that this is mostly a walking tour, but there’s only one hill you have to go up during the tour.
Enjoyed the history of Jerome and our guide extremely knowledgeable and considerate to the people on the tour
The tour was fun and informative. Courtney was the best. The walk was perfect. The vehicle was clean
Courtney was an amazing guide. She really knows Jerome and the history. Her stories were very good and kept everyone there captivated. Learned a ton. She drives the van really well too.
It was a fun tour of a very old town. Our tour guide Courtney was very knowledgeable about the area and the history. She also has a fantastic funny sense of humor. Thanks for a great time!
A great tour, guide was great and had terrific knowledge of history told about the mining town of Jerome
The tour was wonderful. Our guide Courtney was great. She is full of Jerome history. The information has made me look further into Jerome. I will highly recommend this tour to anyone.
This was mine and my mother’s first time in Arizona and we booked this tour on our first day. We originally tried for a ghost tour but they were all sold out so I booked the extended 90 minute historic tour instead. It ended up being the highlight of our whole trip!! Our guide, Courtney was kind and considerate of any physical limitations any tour guests had and spoke so passionately about Jerome as a local herself. (I even purchased a book she recommended for anyone wanting to learn more about the towns history). Would recommend Jerome and this tour group specifically to anyone visiting Arizona, the Sedona area.
Austin the tour guide was amazing ! However , the wild Wild West tour is the Jerome history tour with additional 20-30 min at the mines that you can really see on your own. But the history part (the first hour) was amazing !
Really added to experience in understanding Jerome’s history and our visit. Recommend to do this at the beginning of your visit.
The history of Jerome has transfigured today what it is . Would never have survived without some circumstances. Courtney was a Superb Guide .
Our tour guide, Austin, made the experience so worthwhile. Extremely knowledgeable, fun spirited, perfect pace. Jerome has so much history you wouldn’t know without this experience.
Tour guide did a fantastic job of explaining the history of this copper mining town. This combined with the tour of the town’s relics made history come alive.
This tour gave a nice overview of the town’s unique history. Courtney our tour guide did an awesome job storytelling.
Great guide: very knowledgeable. Learned a lot with extra info included. Highly recommend and would do again
Loved the tour and Austin as guide was great. Learned a lot about Jerome. Would recommend this to others
It’s very informative. Austin was amazing!!! A great way to spend an afternoon! We learned so much about the history of Jerome.
Courtney did a great job of giving us the history of the town and how it all tied together. Having never been to the area before, her knowledge and ability to walk us through the history and bring it to life really made us feel like we learned a lot about the town and the mining operations that established it. Courtney was personable, knowledgeable, and kept the tour moving along.
