Tombstone Arizona: What to Expect

Tombstone Arizona: What to Expect?
Tombstone, Arizona is a small town in South Eastern Arizona that is known for its Wild West history and attractions. Founded in 1879, Tombstone quickly became a booming mining town and was home to a number of notorious figures such as Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and the Clanton Gang. Much of the town burnt down in two different fires in the late 1800s, but they area has been brought back to the Old West charm.
Tombstone is a popular tourist destination and visitors can expect to see a variety of historical sites, museums, and attractions that pay homage to the town's Wild West past. Some of the must-see attractions in Tombstone include the OK Corral, the Bird Cage Theatre, and Boot Hill Cemetery. If you only have the time for one, I highly recommend the Bird Cage Theater, as that is one of the only buildings that survived the devastating fires and has an amazing amount of historical memorabilia.
In addition to these historical sites, Tombstone also hosts a number of annual events and festivals that celebrate the town's history and culture. These events include Helldorado Days, Tombstone Vigilante Days, and Wyatt Earp Days.

Here after watching Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War in Netflix. Watching from the Manila. :)

[@SwiftyTravels]

@@paucordova8440 nice!! Time to come and visit!! 😀👍

[@trvlnthru]

Tombstone sounds like an awesome place to visit. I really like attractions that take you back in time to try to experience the past. The Birdcage Theater does sound like a great place with a really fascinating history. Thanks for sharing this tour!

[@SwiftyTravels]

Thanks so much for watching! There were several attractions and museums I would've visited if I had arrived earlier in the day! There is so much to see!

[@OpenRoad4Two]

This is one of the spots we want to visit. Thanks for sharing the highlights and history.

[@SwiftyTravels]

This is such a unique place to visit and there is a lot to do in this little corner of Arizona! Thanks for checking it out!!!

Got married in tombstone 1999 ❤❤ was awesome ! My husband passed away January 28 this year ! I have my memories , 💋🫂👰

[@SwiftyTravels]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful memory! I’m sorry for your loss.

[@mooreroadstotravelon3]

Thanks for sharing your travels. Hope to visit Tombstone soon. From Moore Roads To Travel On

[@SwiftyTravels]

Thank you! Tombstone is so unique!

[@powerONdelta]

Pizza tower real?

[@CactusAtlas]

The bathrooms on the other end weren't much better either last time we were there. 😂 Too bad your visit wasn't a few weeks later. The rose tree should be blooming soon. Our plant is blooming now and I think Tombstone's bloomed last year about a week or two after ours. Definitely worth seeing (and smelling!).

[@SwiftyTravels]

I remember that! I’ll bet it’s so gorgeous! I’m bummed we missed it! I had big plans on this trip and I really didn’t have as much time as I thought I would.

[@JohnPennock-d3y]

Wow, I've been there, long ago. Nice looking old town! John P.

Was stationed at Fort Huachuca for 3 yrs in the 1990s. Loved Tombstone

[@SwiftyTravels]

We stayed in Sierra Vista! There is lots to see in the area!!

[@Bruh-gw4jm]

Those dang chickens that throw explosives are one of the factors that prevent me from going there

[@aaronkuntze7494]

Don't expect it to look like the movie set. The movie Tombstone was filmed in Tucson at the old Tucson studios 😂

[@1949rangerrick]

Actually the movie was filmed in the Mescal studios. It is also a great place to visit. It’s about 30 or so miles west of Tombstone, just off the 10 freeway.

[@seelautravel]

Such a cool town! Reminds me of the old Wild Wild West 🤠

Thank you for checking it out! ! I wish I had more time there! Its such a unique town!

@@SwiftyTravels does this guy realise this is a pizza tower reference because imma feel really bad if he has no idea why his comments are getting flooded with this (for context theres a song in the game pizza tower called tombstone arizona so this might come up when ppl look for the song)

[@MissingLinkMTB]

Good to see you included the Boothill Cemetary. I've been to Tombstone 5 times so far since I'm stationed nearby. The cemetary is where you'll see the resting places of those depicted in the movie Tombstone. I have seen every live show and toured everything. It's all worth the money for the shows considering it's live entertainment. Bring extra if you'd like to tip the actors. The shows are fun and educational. The Bird Cage cost me $20 if I remember correctly, but I didn't want to go home and regret not seeing it over $20. Lots of history in there like you stated. The "stagecoach" is I believe the actual one that carried them after the OK Corral shootout. Most of the shops are tourist shops with memento's and such. The actors and a lot of employees there are very educated on the town's history so if you have questions feel free to ask them. They'll be more than happy to help. It might be helpful for people to stay near Sierra Vista if they like fast food, restaurants, etc. It's about a 25 minute drive to Tombstone from there. I love it there and I'm sure I have a few more trips in me before I leave Arizona. Oh, and that bathroom is the worst. Where the park is by the OK Corral, there's another one. It's more modern and a little nicer set up.

[@SwiftyTravels]

Thanks so much for your comment! We didn’t give Tombstone enough time. The birdcage was incredible and I was very impressed with the original stagecoach!

[@markbeesley6583]

I live on the edge of London, UK, we are surrounded by history all over going back many centuries. But….there is just something about the history of the wild west that is so interesting. I will be over to see it soon. Thank you for your video.

[@SwiftyTravels]

I don’t know how I missed this comment, but thanks very much!!

[@maxfanmario]

you're lucky you didn't suddenly begin sliding on a guy's dead body

[@brain_respect_and_freedom]

Thank you for next great trip. Early TV westerns sought to teach the good values of honesty and integrity, of hard work, of racial tolerance, of determination to succeed, and of justice for all. At the show's end, moral lessons had been taught and learned.🌅

[@SwiftyTravels]

Yes! So much our society today needs to be reminded of!😀🙏

[@Painis101]

I don't see a anxious italian man faster then a certain blue hedgehog. What a ripoff!

[@MJ-YT-USR]

Thank you, that was really helpful. I'm hoping to visit Tombstone in the coming years. It will be a bit of a journey from Yorkshire in England, but worth it I hope.

[@SwiftyTravels]

Great! There is a lot to see in the West but it is very spread out. If you ever have any questions- feel free to ask anytime! 👍😀

[@philipdillingham1655]

I lived there years ago. Its now just a place to take your money. Nothing like the old Tombstone

Hahaha same! 😂

[@betonarchese]

That was my coffin next to the hearse in the Bird Cage from the movie "Tombstone".

[@SwiftyTravels]

What?!? That’s cool! I had to re-watch the video to check it out. What was your character?

[@betonarchese]

@@SwiftyTravels I was asked to be a Cowboy, but was a year and a half into an apprenticeship so instead I supplied the stuff for the funeral scene and advised them. That coffin should have been lost in the Old Tucson fire, luckily, or unluckily, someone stole it and it ended up in the museum.

[@FernandoGastelo]

Once you said "free public restroom" i was like its gonna be the most discusting and shocking thing on the trip 😂

[@SwiftyTravels]

😂😂😂 oh yeah it was bad

Imagine what it was like in 1881!

Awesome video, will be going to Tombstone 4/14/23 through 4/16/23 with a historical society. Just wanted to see what to expect. Your video was perfect and helpful. Thank you for sharing. Take care. 🇺🇲

[@SwiftyTravels]

Oh my goodness - visiting with a historical society would be amazing !!! I wish I was there when the courthouse was open and I had more time!

[@georgesouthwick7000]

The only buildings that remain from the time of the gunfight at the OK Corral are The Oriental Saloon building (now a boutique), The Birdcage Theatre, Nellie Cashman’s Restaurant and the Cochise County Courthouse.

[@SwiftyTravels]

Glad there are a few that still remain!

[@SorgiStories]

Do you need to change this channel's name to Rowdy Travels after this vid? Sparky's...that place looks SO cool. OK Corral has been used in SO many references to Oklahoma Sooners & Oklahoma State Cowboys games. Yeah, those grave markers are a BIT embellished. I wonder what boots cost there. I'd think higher end compared to regular price because you're in Tombstone. To think it's not just legend, not just movies, but reality that all this violence happened in the streets of Tombstone. Now picturing Yosemite Sam ordering pizza, shrimp & Buffalo burgers. The corral...that business must make a killing with all the gunfight history there. (OK that's a really bad dad joke. Two drink minimum. Try the veal.) 26 people killed there? YEOW.

[@SwiftyTravels]
