TESTIMONIAL

The Miners Peak Tour was fantastic!! Travis grew up in Bisbee and is a 3rd generation resident. Travis provided so much history with so much detail on Bisbee and a few of the surrounding areas. His tour included information on Bisbee from the beginning to current. We explored tight, hilly neighborhoods with so much character and rough, winding, hilly roads to reach the mountaintop that had breathtaking views!! There was SO much to see and take in on this tour! Travis pointed out several places to have our lunch, the one we chose was so delicious! The jeep was so comfortable with lots of room. He kept us both entertained and enthralled with all of his historic Bisbee knowledge! We highly recommend Big Jeep Tours! It was the highlight of our week-long visit to Arizona!
