He didn't hover over us, just let us do our thing and that was the best. He goes into some detail regarding the history of Jerome/Cottonwood which was interesting. We had so much fun that the 2 hours we were out there felt like 15 minutes. He even let us take the spirit box and EVP with us for the night! Super cool experience and would highly recommend it to anyone that likes to ghost hunt!

Read about this company online before we made our trip out West. From reviews and comments, we…read moredecided to book the tour in the middle of the week. We had self toured Jerome with our children 30 years ago and the town and area had grown quite a bit. Turns out, it was a slow day and we were the only two people on the Classic Jerome tour. We had been on small tours before and the guide went through the tour quickly and ended early. Not this Guide! Dave S. was a wonderful guide! He took extra time and care with us, a couple Seniors. He enthralled us with constant stories of surrounding towns and Jerome. He has amassed a great deal of knowledge having lived in the area since a small child and with various guide jobs over the years. He actually asked us what we were interested in and took care to allow us to take in the sights and pictures. And in Jerome, since my wife uses a walker, he dropped us off in front of the restaurant where we planned lunch, then picked us up just up the block. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and were very fortunate to choose Tours of Jerome and Dave.

Epic train adventure trip!!…read more We had the best time on this ride! Our train assistant, Romn, was very fun, and full of railroad knowledge! We met some great people and had some great cocktails! I think this Verde Canyon Railroad Adventure is one you shouldn't miss if you are in the Clarkdale, Sedona, Cottonwood area to visit!

We also purchased food from the cafe there and ended up going back twice for their fries! They were so tasty!! Now on the train we boarded the Sycamore cart and Shea was amazing she kept the vibe high and energetic. She interacted with everyone and was very personable! The only feedback I'd give is to maybe shorten the train ride. 4 hours is entirely too long to go 40 miles round trip. At some point it becomes boring. Also requesting guests to get there 2 hrs before departure is nuts. If you're staying in Sedona or Cottonwood...DO NOT go that early! I don't think young kids or teenagers would enjoy this as much as seniors but I did enjoy my experience 100% The complimentary charcuterie and champagne was a great value as well!

The guide (Elathia sp?) was knowledgeable with the history of the river and wildlife. She was a great guide. She was patient with us and helped us out few times getting stuck in the rapids. Overall it was a fun 2.5-3 hour tour. I'd do it again.

Friendly, and really informative when it came to explaining the history of Jerome and why so much activity is present. We lucked out on a private tour for my partner and I but he was laid back, unscripted and authentic. Never a dull moment! So shout out to Ed! We were lucky enough to converse with some spirits! Very cool, unique and unforgettable experience. 12/10 recommend to anyone in the area!

After traveling to different wine regions including South Australia we were very impressed with…read moreArizona Wines. It should be noted that with a couple of exceptions the wines are all seem to be made in the Willcox, AZ area which is located in South East Arizona. We visited the following tasting rooms during our week long visit to the area. 1. The Jerome Winery 2. Arizona Stronghold 3. Merkin Vineyards 4. Winery 101 5. Pillsbury Wine Company 6. Tantrum Wine 7. Winery 1912 8. Salt Mine Wine 9. Carlson Creek We found wines that we enjoyed at each of these with focus on the Syrah and Syrah blends. Most of these red wines are very smooth and silky with a fruit forward flavor. We found these wines to be actually better than many you would find in the Mclaren Vale region of South Australia, which is famous for their Syrahs. Our favorite hands down were the wines from the Pillsbury Wine Company. Each of these winery's charge between $12-15 for a tasting but most, with the exception of the Jerome Winery and Winery 1912, waived the tasting fee with a purchase of a bottle. We also noted that Tantrum Wine and Winery 1912 did not offer water with their tasting which I believe is pretty important. All in all if you enjoy wines and wine tasting the Verde Valley Wine Trail is a must do.

Upon arrival we had to wait a few minutes longer than start time, but it was because agent ensured we were able to tour without any other group issues! We had John T as our driver and this was one of the best tours we have had in a very long time! We laughed so hard, we literally cried. He was knowledgeable and funny and accommodating, and we would recommend this tour and John T to anyone even thinking about it. In terms of difficulty, there were moments that were a little harrowing, but we were definitely at ease with our driver. The views and experience more than make up for it though! Please do yourself a favor and utilize this company and ask for John T. Because we booked more than one tour with them, they even accommodated a deal for us on our next tour! Such a great time had by all!!
