Prescott Roots

Bill on Prescott

After first moving to Prescott in the mid-60's, I returned in 2016 and love that Prescott wears its history proudly. Its Victorian buildings, Whiskey Row, and the countless stories from the Old West make it feel like the past is never very far away.

Great tour. Learned a lot about Prescott and the ghosts that visit the hotels and saloons. Our guide, Bill Knotts was awesome. Highly recommend one of his tours.
