Good Enough Mine Tour

Buck was an incredible tour guide. This isn't a basic "here's a hole, here's what it's for" kind of tour. Buck did an outstanding job in explaining the hardships of silver mining and educated our entire group in how it was done. While Hollywood has turned Tombstone into an attraction, the Good Enough Mine Tour was an unexpected breath of reality. Do not miss this.

Really good mine tour, highly recommend. Tombstone wouldn't exist without this mine, and mining is such an important piece of Arizona history that it's worth to see an example of how this town and the state came to be. You will definitely gain a deep appreciation for the life of miners in the 1880's.Our guide Cheryl was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and made the hour go by so quickly. The tour does not require extensive walking distance, but you will be walking over uneven surfaces, and there is a long stairway at the start (and end) of the tour...so take note if you have bad knees or have fitness limitations.There are a lot of tourist attractions in Tombstone; this is the only one I would consider a "must do".

This is a must if you are visiting Tombstone! The whole family loved it. Take the mine tour for sure! We learned so much about mining, Tombstone, and AZ history. Dave was a great tour guide!

We decided to go on this tour and it was amazing. Our tour guide was not only knowledgeable but personable and was a great guide in every sense of the word. Would I recommend doing this tour? 100% YES!

Such a great tour. Ray was our guide and he answered all our questions and seemed very knowledgeable about the mine's history. I would definitely do this tour again. Great for all ages but if you can't climb stairs don't do it. There are quite a few steps you have to use to get to the mine.

We came here Sunday Oct 2nd and used our GetOut Pass to do a free gold panning activity. It was a lot of fun and Janey was really nice.We plan on coming back to do one of their Saturday night dinner theater experiences inside the mine!

We really enjoyed this tour. It took a bit less than an hour which was just about the right amount of time to be underground. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We learned a lot and enjoyed ourselves.

I wanna give a shout-out to the staff, first and foremost, who were all very friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly enjoy their profession. My folks and I opted to get the tickets for the combined mine tour + trolley tour, which lowered the price we would have paid for both individually. They made it very easy to do one or the other in whichever order you prefer, with the trolley leaving on the hour every hour.We did the mine tour first, and our guide was an older woman named Amy. She was witty and quick and knew a lot about the details of mining. She took us down into and through the interesting winding tunnels where silver ore was extracted. It was well-lit and low-hanging rocks are marked with red paint to assist those who are taller to not hit their heads; though hard hats are provided to all guests as well to wear during the experience. On a hot day, I recommend the mine tour because no matter what, it's a moderate 68°F underground, and a welcome relief to the heat up top!I later learned that they have intermediate and challenging mine tours as well, which do cost more but also last much longer and take you through more interesting areas. If I ever were to go back, I'd definitely want to try the next step up! (Note: for the intermediate they recommend 12+ yo, and for advanced they recommend adults only.)Our guide for the trolley tour was George, who had a conversational tone and drove us allllll over. It lasted approximately 45 minutes because he really showed us all the different areas of Tombstone, not just the mining areas and Allen street. We also were given complementary water, which was very welcome because it was 109°F that day! The trolley runs with the windows down, no A/C.

It's a must do while you are visiting ! The tour guide was very informative, fun & had some jokes ! It's a very different& exciting experience, learned a lot ! Make time for this , you will not regret ! The petting zoo has really cute animals too :)

We took this tour on a hot (mid-90s) early-October day and were grateful to get out of the heat and down into the cool mine for a while. Our guide, Buck, was entertaining and informative and really looked the part of an old-time miner with his white hair and Santa Claus beard! He answered all our questions and moved at a pace that made sure no one ever got too far behind. Five stars for Buck!
