Take a tour through the desert of Sonora along the Apache Trail, an historic stagecoach route that originated as an ancient Indian pathway. Visit the ghost towns of Goldfield and Tortilla Flat and learn about the legend of hidden treasure in the Superstition Mountains.

Apache Trail Tour

We will collect you from the meeting point in Phoenix and then head along the oldest route through Arizona - the Apache Trail. Our first stop is at the Superstition Mountains, where you will hear about the legend of hidden treasure in these hills.

We will continue along the route that guided Indians and later served as a stagecoach track. Our next stop is the ghost town of Goldfield, preserved to reflect its appearance over a century ago. Here, you can try panning for gold using traditional methods.

Next, we head to Canyon Lake, where we will board the Dolly Steamboat. For 6 miles, the vessel will cruise through tranquil waters while you can observe bighorn sheep, bald eagles, and other desert animals around the lake's shores.

Our adventure concludes with a visit to Tortilla Flat, the last remaining stagecoach stop on the Apache Trail, which retains its original architecture and traditions. We will finally return to Phoenix, concluding the tour.
