  1. Vulture City Ghost Town
    Admission ticket included
    Step into the heart of Arizona’s Wild West and explore one of the state’s most authentic and best-preserved ghost towns at your own pace. This self-guided tour lets you wander through over 16 original buildings and structures dating back to the 1800s — including the brothel, assay office, cookhouse, and the infamous Hanging Tree.

    Whether you’re a history buff, photographer, adventurer, or simply curious, this immersive experience offers a rare opportunity to connect with the past in a hands-on, open-air environment surrounded by the raw beauty of the Sonoran Desert.
