Top Things to Do in Tombstone Arizona
The Wild West is alive in the old silver mining town of Tombstone Arizona outside of Tucson Arizona. Tombstone was home to Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday. This ‘town too tough to die’ is most known for the famous gunfight at the OK Corral. Today the main road remains dirt, saloons still have swinging doors, stagecoaches roll through the town, and cowboys wander the streets chatting. Tombstone is an easy day trip from Tucson and a not-to-miss stop during an Arizona road trip. Be sure to watch the movie Tombstone (1993) before your visit. Discover the Wild West with these 25 things to do in Tombstone Arizona.
