Thanks for the experience! - Our tour guide was named Austin. A very nice and knowledgeable young man. The town is SMALL so I thought surely the tour wouldnt last the whole hour but he kept us learning the whole time. He pointed out some of the structural damage that I otherwise would not have noticed and it really added to the ambience- like you can see the history of what happened in the past in the buildings and the streets. I would highly recommend this tour if youre as enthralled about this quirky little town as I am.

A look in the past of the wickedest city in America. - Very informative. Our tour guide Austin was very passionate and engaging. Learned a lot about past of Jerome . We wish it was more walking during our "walking tour" ,although , dew to the hilly terrain of the town it would be very challenging for older people and younger kids to attend. Company did a great job accommodating every age group by using minivan to move us around. For that short tour it was pricy.

Horrendous! - It’s complete mumbo-jumbo, a total farce! They hand you some cheap gadgets which is supposed to connect us with the spirits, imagine that in the middle of a sunny afternoon. I had to trust my intelligence and leave after 30 minutes of the tour, they take us for fools. Old stories, haunted buildings, dead people is an interesting premise and when narrated well is not too bad but anything else is nothing but to fleece tourists.
