The tour was informative and good. Not a huge tour, but the kids enjoyed it. Guide was informative, but laughed at his own jokes before he told them. He did respond well to the kids though and they really seemed to enjoy the trip.

Owner description:
The Goodenough Mine is one of the twenty five producing silver mines in the Tombstone Mining District, which started the mining boom which resulted in the incorporation of the City of Tombstone. When you take the tour, you will be shown through the original 1879 workings by a knowledgeable guide, and learn all about nineteenth century hard rock silver mining. You'll see what the ore looked like, learn about how it was processed, see some beautiful rocks and minerals, and artifacts and structures that have been in place for 130 years. This is one of the mines owned by Ed Schieffelin, the founder of the town, part of the Tombstone Mill and Mining Company, which he founded as well. The Goodenough Mine Tour is the most authentic and unique attraction in the City of Tombstone, and you'll see the results of the hard work of the miners. It's an experience that you will enjoy.

My 8 year old could NOT wait to take this tour, and she was not disappointed. It was our last tour before leaving Tombstone and what a great time we had. Our tour guide was interesting and informative. A great addition to our trip to Tombstone.

This is a rather recent addition to town, and it was a good one. The tour guide was knowledgeable, and the tour was pretty simple. It isn't a mine that goes really deep into the earth, so my slightly claustrophobic tendencies didn't pop up. It is well-ventilated and well-lit. Amazing information about the size of the silver strike, the value...

We were able to get two tickets for the price of one before going to Tombstone so said heck, why not? Well we thoroughly enjoyed the tour thanks to a very informed and experienced guide (unfortunately, I forgot his name). He knew the history and did a great job explaining it and adding very interesting stories. He had us so...

We went on the mine tour yesterday. A great part of Tombstone history, our guide Pat was extremely interesting to listen to, and very well informed. If you are going to Tombstone do the Good Enough mine Tour first!

There are 65 stair down and up so if you have knee problems it might not be for you. Otherwise the paths are well cleared and an easy walk. The guide paints a very good picture of what life was likes for the miners of the time. There are some interesting artifacts, some minerals and gives you a good idea...

Really enjoyed this tour. Our tour guide, Pat, was very informative and alot of fun! He was even able to pleasantly ignore the obnoxious drunk people and still educate the family members who were present.

I went a year ago and am a repeat customer. Depending on your guide, this underground tour is an adventure and an education together. The Mine Tour Operators were talking a major extention to the tour and I hope they are able to so expand.
Learning just how hard and dangerous underground life in the mines was is an eye...
