We started with one tour and a notebook full of stories.
Now we tell those stories across three Arizona cities to thousands of guests every year. We're based in downtown Prescott, AZ, with our flagship tour departing daily from Courthouse Plaza.
Freaky Foot Tours was founded in 2015 by a mother and son with five generations of Arizona roots and a belief that the best way to know a place is to walk its streets with someone who knows the stories.
What started as a single walking tour in Flagstaff has grown to three Arizona cities and more than 30,000 guests. 1,400+ verified reviews company-wide. Best of Flagstaff 2023 and 2024.
In 2025, Freaky Foot Tours expanded to Prescott with a new product: the Prescott History Tour. A 2-hour, 10-stop deep dive into Arizona's territorial capital, told by a guide who has done the research and tells the stories right where they happened.
The Prescott History Tour is not a ghost tour. It is a story of gold miners, saloon keepers, frontier lawmakers, and the people who built the American West with their bare hands. Daily at 10AM.
Shane is the only guide for the Prescott History Tour. A passionate local historian who has led hundreds of tours. Shane does not recite scripts. Shane internalizes the research and brings it to life with curiosity and personal storytelling style.
"I loved hearing the historical facts, stories, and legends. Shane was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. This was my first trip to Prescott and the tour was a great way to begin!"indyfam407, TripAdvisor, February 2026
The free museum walking tours run May through October, weekends only. Self-guided options have no live guide. This tour runs every single morning at 10AM, 365 days a year, led by a trained professional storyteller. It is the only daily, year-round paid history tour in Prescott, the seat of Yavapai County and Arizona's first territorial capital, and the only tour that extends to Nob Hill, where no other tour goes. The route covers 10 historic places in Prescott, connecting Whiskey Row's saloon district to Nob Hill's Victorian mansions.
Every story on the tour is sourced from historical archives, newspapers, and primary documents. We do not rely on secondhand summaries.
Our guides internalize the research. They do not recite scripts. They bring the stories to life with their own curiosity and storytelling instinct.
New research surfaces constantly. The tour evolves as we uncover more of Prescott's layered history. Every walk is a living document.
