Very informative and fun. Lots of great Colorado history. We were amazed at how well preserved all of the buildings and equipment were even though they were 100 yrs old!

We had so much fun on our tour with our guide Andrew. He gave a lot of detail about the tunnel and the history behind it, but mixed in fun stories that kept us laughing. It's definitely a unique and fun way to learn about Colorado's mining history, plus you get to pan for gold at the end which was great!

As long as I’ve lived in the front range I’ve never done this tour. I’m so happy I finally did it! Really interesting history and a great tour. The itty-bitty kids were melting down by the end but the school age kids all seemed very interested.

Enjoyed the history, tour, and panning for GOLD! The tour guide was fantastic with the kids. The mine shaft was cool. The cost to time ratio was economic.

Best mine tour I've been on in Colorado. It is a bit on the pricey side for a family but worth it! Rich and comprehensive history, at a beautiful location. It not only highlights the grit of miners and their families but also the harsh realities of the industry and its ecological effects.

Interesting tour. Nice tour guide. Super interesting stuff. I wish there was a little mine tour connected to it, but overall, if you are looking for something to do that is quick it is really fun.

We had so much fun and it was so educational. Our guide Patty answered. All our questions took our pictures and just plain had fun with us. I would recommend this to anybody who wants history of the area and enjoys being surrounded by beauty and history.

Very interesting tour. A lot of information about the mine, the area and the whole mining industry. If you are in the area this is a must. Our guide was very knowledgeable , the tour take about 60 minutes, you get to see the mill and the mine ( a small portion of an aprox 5 miles tunnel who used to connect all the mines in the area).

The staff was very friendly. Tour guide let a lady who for got to wear her coat wear her coat. It was very interesting learning about what people did for work so long ago. Very historic.

Really a great and interesting tour. It was really neat to be able to go into part of the mine and learn the history of the complex. Also a good spot for kids to go, everyone was included!

My boyfriend and I enjoyed ourselves very much! Fun yet informational tour. Currently recovering from a surgery and the tour was manageable as well.

Great tour about the history of the Gold Rush and the mine. Amazing to see the mill and most of the original milling equipment.

Andrew was just amazing. His knowledge of everything was magnificent. We were lucky enough to have a private tour and boy was that worth it. He answered all our questions and went above and beyond in explaining in detail. He was fun and entertaining, definitely worth the trip! Thanks again!
