"The horses are ready and we are open for business," said J.B. Brummett, owner and tour guide of Horseback Tours. 

The tours take riders throughout all of Tombstone, seeing each historic landmark the town has to offer in just 25 minutes.

Stationed on 4th Street, tours are offered Friday through Sunday.

"We offer a safe way to see the land and enjoy it on horseback,"
he said.

After launching his business in January, Brummett said he is ready to expand the tours to show more sights and provide longer rides.

As of now, Brummett only holds a permit to give the tours throughout the city of Tombstone, but has plans to seek permits that allow access to give tours in different areas.

He visions that he soon will be able to take tourist to the Cochise Stronghold through the Dragoon Mountains just outside of town.

The ride will be almost five hours long and will include a lunch break.

"I really want to do this to get people to appreciate the land for
its solitude."

Brummett also offers other services through his Horseback Tours.

Longer rides are available Monday through Thursday at $35 per hour and also $200 couple packages that include riding, meals and a room for the evening.
