Q&A

Q: Can you reschedule if something comes up after I buy this tour?

A: Yes, you can reschedule! Just reach out to the provider, Historic Arizona Tours, at least 48 hours before your scheduled tour. They’re usually pretty flexible, but it’s good to give them a heads up. Make sure you check their policies for any specific rules.

Q: Is there an age limit for the tour? I want to take my kids!

A: There’s no strict age limit! Kids tend to love the ghost town aspect of the tour, and the prison has some cool history that could be educational too. Just keep in mind that some parts, like the ghost town, can have uneven terrain, so make sure to supervise younger ones!

Q: What should I wear for the tour? Is it mostly walking?

A: Comfortable shoes are a must since you’ll be walking around historical sites, especially Castle Dome. It can get really hot in Arizona, so wear breathable clothing, and don’t forget a hat and sunscreen! Bring a light jacket too, as it can get cooler in the ghost town areas in the evening.

Thinking about gifting the Yuma Territorial Prison & Castle Dome Ghost Town tour! Any tips?

I’m considering this private tour from Phoenix for a friend’s birthday. I love that it includes lunch and entrance fees. I’ve heard the history is fascinating, but how’s the tour guide? Are they engaging? Would love some personal stories if anyone’s been there!

Has anyone done the Castle Dome Ghost Town tour? What was it like?

Just looking for opinions on the Castle Dome portion of the tour. I know it’s a bit off the beaten path, but is it worth it? How much time do you spend there? I’m also curious about the petroglyph site since that’s included.
