    Lowell
    Natasha A.

    While you wait for your table at the Bisbee Breakfast Club make sure to walk down Erie St in Lowell for a glimpse into the 1950's. Fascinating how the city keeps it this way like a little time capsule.

    Not a ghost town, but the older part of town, fun to just walk the street and look at all the classics/old Town

    If you want to experience walking in a 40's- 50's Ghost Town, this is it. Erie Street is located in the town of Lowell, AZ just on the other side of Bisbee. When the mining company started digging the Lavender Pit they swallowed up the town except for the main street. It looks like time stood still here. There is a man who owns the garage mid-street and he buys and fixes up the old cars and vehicles that line the street. When you stroll down the street you might even see him working on or under one of them. If you do, stop and have chat with him. He loves to tell stories, especially how he sometimes drives one of them over to Bakersfield to see the drag races. If you are hungry there is the Breakfast Club. They serve very good meals and excellent coffee.

    Great place to visit when you are in Bisbee! Great that this ghost town still exists.

    If you've been considering exploring Bisbee- you definitely should. Don't miss out!…read more Our family lives pretty close by so I've been many times. It's an old miner hippie town with lots of little quirky shops, restaurants and oddities. Bisbee is a day trip- maybe a weekend max. It's fairly small, so don't expect to spend a week here as you will run out of things to do! Come on the weekends when the most shops will be open, and pay attention to hours! Most things open at 9/10 and some shops close at 2, so plan accordingly. If you're coming from out of town, consider staying in bisbee and also hitting tombstone and Lowell. Stay in the copper queen hotel or a cute quirky Airbnb. I'd avoid Bisbee Coffee Company and hit Allan & Co instead. Make sure you go to Patisserie Jacqui and Pussy Cat Gelato. Cafe Roka is excellent for a higher end meal. If you love thrifting/antiquing Bisbee, Lowell and Tombstone have tons of great shops. The hotel is BUZZING at night on the weekends when there's live music and it's a hoot. It's a magical place.

    We absolutely loved Bisbee! It was a charming mining town that had views where ever you looked! A…read moremust is booking the Copper Mining Tour, and Cafe Roka, both ahead of time. We stayed at San Ramon which was nice. We walked Main St at night and during the day, both were beautiful. A must is doing at least some of the 1,000 step challenge, you'll get excellent views from it. And you must eat breakfast at Bisbee Breakfast Club and walk through Lowell as you wait for your table to be ready. Afterwards, walk to Dot's Diner for a float or milkshake, and checkout the Shady Dell.

This historical old silver mining town hosts many family run businesses to give tourist an opportunity to step into history! Varying affordable entertainment options such as, the Trolly tour around Tombstone, a comedy gun fight show filled with entertainment for all, a mine tour, lots of museums, stage coach rides and tours, old trains, preserved historical landmarks and buildings, a Guiness Book World Record Rose Tree courtyard, a zipline, active churches, great restuarants, coffee shops, and ice cream shops. Wonderful western shopping, Native American art shopping, handmade art, antiques, and more. At night, they offer Ghost tours, old graveyard tours, shooting ranges, and lots of bar hopping activities. The "Ladies of the Night" may come out amongst the tourists with options of many hotels, motels, and Airbnbs around the town all within walking distance! A definite must see and do. Don't be shy, check out this town of history and preservance!

    For the 2 hour plus trip we made, I would not go again. We went on Memorial Day and there was not a…read morelot happening. Maybe my expectations were too high. I expected to see what Tombstone may have looked like in the days of Wyatt Earp but with the shops and the changes so you have to pay to see anything, the vibe was just not there. I also expected to see people dressed in period costumes, but nope. Others have commented about how you have to drop $10-$12 to see a gunfight then pay again to see a show, then pay again to see the mine, then pay again to see something else, it adds up quick. And walls were built so you can't see anything without paying. Old Tucson seemed more realistic. Is there anything surviving from the Wyatt Earp days? Maybe, but with fires and renovations over the decades, I'm not sure what. We enjoyed seeing the RoseTree, and the Cowboy Coffee shop and talking to the slacker. (The third brother) The food was good at the saloon. Then we were ready to go.

Worth it! Saw lots of cacti and got out of the car to take photos close up with the cacti too. While the cacti were more spread out in this location, it was definitely a sight to see! So random how we discovered this place on our roadtrip (as it wasn't even planned)! After completing the drive, the visitor center opened up and we were able to go inside for the gift shop and other learnings. So fun!

    April is the perfect time of year to make the jaunt over to Saguaro National Park East for the…read moreCactus Forest Drive. The weather is not yet scorching and the blooming flora is beautiful. My family and I took the 8 mile drive on a Saturday afternoon over a span of about three hours, we stopped at many of the pullouts for a bit of exploring and photography. The entrance cost is $20 for a regular vehicle and an annual pass is $80, pricing varies for large groups and tours. I highly recommend a stop and short climb at Javelina Rock, although we didn't encounter any javelinas, the view was one of our favorites from the drive. The visitor center also has a fun gift shop you shouldn't miss! Can't wait to visit again when I have more time for hiking and exploration.
