JOIN GUESTS WHO LOVED IT—BOOK YOUR TOUR TESTIMONIAL The highlight of our trip to Arizona The highlight of our trip to Arizona was our Big Jeep Tour with owner, Travis. Travis was born and raised in Bisbee. Multiple generations of his family have lived and worked there, some in the mines. As a result, his tour information is first-hand and personally experienced. He knows dates, people, places, and history. It was fascinating to us. Travis founded Big Jeep Tours (BJT) because he was afraid the history of Bisbee would be forgotten and lost. As a result, the purpose and passion of BJT is to inform and share with as many people as possible, the history of Bisbee. Lastly, Travis is gracious and caring. He was always conscious of our well-being, always asking if we were OK and comfortable. I highly recommend you do not miss the Big Jeep Tour. Angie

The signature “Digging In: Bisbee’s Mineral Heritage” experience—crafted with Smithsonian designers—walks you from a miner’s changehouse into an underground drift and “crystal cave,” telling the stories of the people who blasted and mucked more than 2,000 miles of tunnels beneath the Mule Mountains.

Housed at 818 Tombstone Canyon, the museum features rotating galleries, a mural labyrinth, and a sculpture garden drawn from what it calls the largest private collection of its kind in the Southwest. It’s typically open Thursday–Sunday, 11:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m. (arrive by ~3:15 p.m.; no children under 13), with tickets sold at the gift shop. Pair a Big Jeep Tour with a self-guided hour here to round out your Bisbee day: rugged mining history by morning, cutting-edge art by afternoon. Sam•Poe Gallery: Bisbee’s Contemporary Heart on Subway Street Step into Bisbee’s creative core at the Sam•Poe Gallery, home to contemporary artists Sam Woolcott (award-winning painter of Bisbee’s spaces and light) and Poe Dismuke (inventive sculptor and maker of delightfully kinetic contraptions). You’ll find one-of-a-kind works that channel the town’s mining-era textures and desert geometry—right at 33 Subway Street. The gallery, opened by the duo in 2008, reflects their deep roots in Bisbee’s art scene (Poe even co-founded the city’s BRATS soapbox-derby arts tradition). A perfect short stop between explorations downtown, and a must for travelers who love art with a strong sense of place. Whitewater Draw: A Winter Sky Full of Cranes (just outside Bisbee) Just 20–30 minutes from Bisbee near McNeal, Whitewater Draw Wildlife Area is southeastern Arizona’s premier winter roost for tens of thousands of sandhill cranes. From roughly October through March—peaking mid-winter—you can watch massive flocks lift off at sunrise and swirl back at sunset, along with ducks, raptors, and other wetland birds. It’s free to visit, easy to access, and run by Arizona Game & Fish as habitat for cranes and waterfowl, making it a must-see nature stop to pair with a Bisbee history or scenic tour. Bring binoculars, arrive early or late for the best action, and listen for that unforgettable bugling call echoing across the wetlands. Things To Do In Bisbee Map
