Gold Mine & Ghost
Town Tour
Be on the lookout for Your "ghost
riders" and "gunfighters" on this Ghost
Town and Gold Mine Tour. It all happens in Oatman, Arizona,
an authentic western ghost town and mining camp –
located along historic Route 66.
Founded in 1906 and nestled in the Black
Mountains of the Mohave Desert, Oatman is the lone survivor
of the numerous communities that sprung up in the area
during the Gold Rush days of the old west.
Take your picture with one of the friendly
donkeys that roam the streets of this old west mining
town. Stroll into many of the original historic buildings
located on this historic and famous highway.
See the Oatman Hotel where Clark Gable
and Carol Lombard spent their wedding night and where
“Oatie The Ghost”, an Irish Miner who died
in 1930, is said to reside.
Lunch is included with this tour, then
enjoy a 45-minute guided walking tour of a real old
time underground gold mine is part of this adventure.
It’s always a comfortable 70 degrees in the mine
shaft. Discovered in 1902, it has been reported that
by 1907, The Gold Road Mine property had milled 140,000
ounces of Gold.
Join the 500,000 tourists who visit
Oatman each year. Shop in the original buildings that
