We had signed up for the History Walk but switched to the Jerome Ghost Walk which worked better for us timewise. Thank you so much for accommodating us. Loved our guide's pre walk chat. Thanks Courtney. Great narration-Ron and Khosi Trussell.

We had a great experience with my husband and work colleagues/ friends. Our tour guide, while only 2 months on the jobs, was very knowledgeable. I cannot urge this tour enough! A few of the people in our group were a little reluctant to go, but by the end of the tour, we were all so fascinated with the history and glad we went.

Such a great decision, to take this tour! Courtney was so knowledgeable and open for questions. Learned a lot that I hadn’t read before, and appreciated her timing of our walking and resting. This is a hilly place, to say the least, but she timed her talks in such a way that we never felt rushed or out of breath! Thank you so much, Courtney, for such a good tour!

Courtney was an excellent guide and knew her information. It was an easy walk and learned a lot about the history of the town. We would like to do the ghost tour next time we visit.

When we arrived in Jerome we walked around and got the lay of the land. Initially we weren't very impressed UNTIL we went on a walking tour with Courtney. She really opened our eyes to the long history of this town. We stopped at the museum before doing the walking tour and learned a lot, but Courtney was able to share much more detail and history. In our book this walking tour is a must!!!!

We had been to Jerome a few times but didn't know the history so we decided to take a tour. Such a unique town with rich history. Our tour guide was amazing and full of knowledge. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in the towns history.

This was a very very weird experience. The tour started on time, it was fairly Easy to find. They provided a flashlight which was nice as the town was very dark. They gave good info but the guide seemed annoyed that we booked the history tour at dark instead of the ghost tour. She would make comments like “well I can’t show you this because you booked the history tour at night” to me: If that effects how the tour is - do not sell the tickets at night? How were we supposed to know? Also there was a trainee the whole tour following- totally cool. However the trainee and the tour guide argued the entire tour. It was sooo uncomfortable and so awkward the entire time. Then in the middle of one of their arguments the guide abruptly ended our tour. So odd. It seemed like there were a few other options in town. I would choose one of those.

Stopped in Jerome on a solo trip to explore the mining town and learn some history to bring back to my students. Had a great time on my walking history tour with Aaron. Aaron was *super* knowledgable of the town and was able to share it's history and some first hand experiences with us. I did the 7pm tour, and I am not sure if it was all the info or all of our questions, but it went a little over an hour. Personally, I didn't mind this since there was so much to see and hear about. Despite the town being on the side of the mountain, it was a fairly easy walk - maybe one location that was uphill, everything else is simple to navigate and is going downhill.

We took this 1 hour historic walking tour of Jerome since there were fires in the area that prevented us from hiking. It was an informative tour that the family enjoyed. Jerome is a great little town and we were glad we took the tour. Courtney was very knowledgeable and sent us down to where the mine shift was. We wouldn't have gone had she not recommended it. The walk itself is relatively easy. There is a short walk uphill but we stopped a few times and were fine. Otherwise it was downhill or down stairs.
