Over the Christmas holiday, my parents took my sister and I to explore Tombstone and Bisbee, two historic towns in Arizona. I couldn’t believe how cute Bisbee was! It’s a very small town but the historic downtown area had a ton of cute boutiques, restaurants, and cool street art. So I decided to whip out my camera and snap some photos so I could share a mini Bisbee travel guide for any of you that may be planning a trip to this cute little tourist spot! We had fun walking around exploring the antique stores and shops and shared a few yummy pastries at a patisserie before heading back to Phoenix.

Where To Shop

Visions

This artisan boutique at the entrance of historic downtown Bisbee is one that you must check out! Visions features a curated selection of clothing, body care, home goods, and more made by local makers and artists from around the world. I love the earthy, natural vibes of the shop. It’s a visually beautiful store with something for everyone.

Address: 1 Ok St, Bisbee, AZ, 85603

Classic Rock Couture

Another super fun boutique to check out in downtown Bisbee is Classic Rock Couture! I loved the retro, rocker vibes of this boutique. They had some amazing vintage furniture pieces, an awesome record collection to shop from, and super cute clothes and accessories. I loved the aesthetics, it was definitely my kind of shop!

What To Do

Historic Downtown

Bisbee was a prosperous, early twentieth century copper mining town which you can tell from the beautiful, well preserved architecture in downtown. This streets of this charming town have a European feel to them with stunning Colonial, Spanish, and Italianate architecture. We really enjoyed walking through the streets and admiring the old buildings.

Bisbee Street Art

Bisbee is home to many artists and the street art all over the town gives it a funky, quirky vibe. I loved the iconic Beatles mural on the side of the Bisbee Royale. It was fun walking around and pointing out the different murals.

Bisbee 1000 (The Great Stair Climb)

We didn’t get the chance to do the Bisbee 1000 due to a limited amount of time and the fact that I was in my 3rd trimester lol but it is a popular thing to do while visiting this cute town! It’s 4.5 miles, 1000 steps over nine staircases connected by winding roads throughout the town which was built along a hillside. It’s supposed to have some great views of the town. I photographed one of the sections above!

Where To Eat

Patisserie Jacqui

I love a cute bakery so I was so excited to stop by the adorable Patisserie Jacqui. I have the biggest sweet tooth and I was really craving a chocolate croissant but of course they were sold out. So we tried the lavender brownie and morning bun instead which were incredible! You place your order at the window but we sat at the patio to enjoy our treats. The Parisian vibes were super cute and it is such an asset to the town!
