Apache Trail Tour

APACHE TRAVEL DAY TOUR

Arizona’s first historic highway is just a few minutes outside of the city.  The Apache Trail is the perfect way to experience the beauty of the Sonoran Desert.  Get a chance to try panning for gold in the restored ghost town of Goldfield, marvel at the views of the Superstition Mountains, and take a cruise on scenic Canyon Lake.  A pick-up at our planned location gets the adventure started, leading you out to the Superstition Mountains along the path that guided Apache travelers, stage coaches, and mountain men alike. 

When you get to Canyon Lake, board the famous Dolly Steamboat for a 6 mile narrated nature cruise.  Watch for bighorn sheep, bald eagles and a host of other desert animals, as well as unforgettable views of the towering volcanic cliffs.

 Next, your guide will take you to the town of Tortilla Flat, a stagecoach stop that holds onto its rich tradition through its architecture and unique decorating sense before heading back to the city.
