Took Highway 66 from Kingman to Lake Havasu City but the real surprise along the route was the town of Oatman. You come around the corner and there are cars parked on all sides of the street, people walking down the main drag and donkeys everywhere. Everyone was simply having a good time. You can buy feed for the donkeys at a number of places. Check out the community bathroom at the end of the street. It is unbelievably clean for a main street rest room.

it was really exciting walking and feeding the burro's .. they have the free run of the town just like everyday citizens . i go back at least 2 to 3 times a year to see how many new born burro's are around the town .

Interesting old mining village turned into a tourist town .Donkeys walking the main street. Stores selling all the tourist stuff. Big rig friendly as there is a fairly big parking lot where busses park. Shoot out at noon and at 2 p.m. Donations taken for Shrines children hospital.

I love this little town. We were met with donkeys roaming the streets, coming right up to the shop doors. There were awesome and different collectible items to buy. They put on a show in the street with the cowboys gunning each other down

We heard about about the town of Oatman where the burros had the right-of-way. The town is on Route 66 and is a great place to spend 2-3 hours. You can buy burro food at many of the local establishments in Oatman. Yes, the older burros are fun to feed, but you have to remember that they are wild animals, not pets. I don't think many people realize this. Just be careful when feeding, the burros can be pushy in getting to the alfalfa pellets. The younger ones have stickers on their foreheads reminding everyone not to feed them. They will grab your purse or shopping bag if they can. I got a big glob of burro mucus on my purse on out last visit to Oatmen, funny but yuk!! it was my fault, wasn't paying attention to the burros lurking nearby, was watching the gun fight reinactment. We drive to Oatman every time we go to Laughlin to gamble. Make sure you have extra time to drive the road to Kingman on the old Route 66. It's a great scenic drive.

Had a fun time visiting the burrors and little shops. Shop owners extremely friendly. Visit the Oatman Hotel and get a beer from the bartender "Dallas".However.... DO NOT bring carrots. We received all kinds of grief from the shop owners, just carrying a bag around. They have banned carrots. Didn't get a good reason other than, supposedly, they make them more aggressive. Otherwise a good time you won't regret

I expected to find a scattering of donkeys roaming the streets but was pleasantly surprised to see so much more in this town!!! An older man was making jewelry as we walked by. I bought 2 lovely pieces from him and he even sized my ring on the spot. We walked through an old mine and visited the Oatman Hotel where Clark Gable and Carole Lombard spent their honeymoon on the second floor of the hotel in a small numbered room. The town is lined with shops and eateries. I was lucky to run into one of the shop owners who was a real Indian! He was very cordial and I even took a picture with him. He gave me a Black Friday discount on a piece of jewelry I purchased at his shop. The donkeys were a lot of fun to pet and feed carrots. Just be careful to avoid their droppings in the road. The gun fights were very entertaining and the actors used our donations to help their local charities. It's a great way to spend the day. Well worth the trip!

Great Experience for all of us, including our littlest rider (6 years old).Our youngest was so apprehensive and Tom and Ben couldn't have been more re-assuring for him. Tom, the operator was super friendly and Ben, our guide was informative and very capable. Beautiful backdrop of mountains,calm horses, highly reasonable rates= great memories! Thank you! Highly recommend!!

During the day all of the Burros, that those yellow signs warn us about, are hiding. They head for watering holes early or late in the day, but during the day they avoid tourists, ATV's and open areas. You can however find them on the main street of Oatman, NV during the day. If you walk out of any store with a paper bag they will follow you. They are cute, but smell bad and are very dusty. The stores in town have a lot of the ususal touristy junk that you can get anywhere, however there was one shop that contained hand-made jewelry and art made by a native and his wife and her brother. Each item is unique, well-made and signed by the artist (and none of it is "Made in China"). Check out the store where the burros hang-out - there is a collection of Vintage harley Davidson's upstairs.

We are beginners and this was a perfect way to visit the desert area around Oatman, get a first hand experience and pointers from the young man that lead the tour. I would say these guys are about the friendliest people i have ever met. Tour was just right, and they obviously take care of their horses. Top notch stop if you have a few hours with the family.
