About this tour
Explore Bisbee’s steep canyon streets with a self-guided audio walking tour that brings the Arizona town’s mining history and colorful character into focus. GPS-triggered narration leads you through historic downtown, past hidden stairways and landmarks tied to the Copper Queen Mine and Brewery Gulch.
As you walk, hear about the 1917 Bisbee Deportation and the social tensions that shaped the town’s transformation from a mining powerhouse into a vibrant arts enclave. Set your own pace: pause for coffee, browse a gallery, or linger at a viewpoint, then continue when you’re ready. The audio resumes as you move through the route, and the downloaded tour works offline, so cell service is not required.
There’s no in-person guide, fixed schedule, or expiration date. Download the Drives & Detours app and tour before setting out, then discover Bisbee’s layered past one street and stairway at a time.

How this score is calculated
This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.
How the score works
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
