About this experience

Step into the holiday spirit with the Stockyards Jingle & Mingle Holiday Saloon Crawl where festive cheer, strong drinks, and Wild West history collide! We'll walk along the original 1800s brick streets and share stories of ghosts, gambling and gunfights! After a stroll through historic Mule Alley we'll step inside Sidesaddle Saloon, a trendy hotspot full of classic Texas charm. Toss back a strong drink or shooter named after a famous cowgirl as you soak in the vibrant atmosphere. We’ll stop by a former brothel, still haunted with the ghost of its headmistress, and hear the story of the oldest honky tonk in Texas where legends like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday once roamed. We'll top off the journey inside a historic hotel where you can literally "saddle up" to the bar as you sip a local Texas beer or cocktail and enjoy a sweet treat. With strong drinks and unforgettable stories of Wild West legends like Bonnie & Clyde, this tour is a spirited journey through history—holiday style!
