What your day looks like
The tour is perfectly paced and designed to make the most of every minute! Montezuma Castle: This site is one of the best-preserved cave dwellings in North America.

Located in the beautiful Verde Valley, you can learn of how these interesting people lived and get a scenic view of the early stone and mortar masonry. (Duration 30 minutes) Tuzigoot: This historic monument is the largest and best-preserved pueblo ruins from the Sinagua people in the Verde Valley.

Jerome, Arizona is rich in state history and mining. Founded in 1899 because of the rich copper deposits in the Black Hills, it served as one of the mining boomtowns of Arizona in the 1920s.
