Our group of four was blown away by the kindness and knowledge of our guide. We learned a lot of interesting facts along the entire route of our tour and felt very well taken care of. The gold mine was a highlight, and the entire trip was a better experience for us than we could have had just driving around on our own. We'll remember this as the fun adventure we were looking for in Colorado.

Fun tourist thing to do. Typical mine tour with panning for gold option. Nice surprise in taking the dirt "back door" road between Idaho Springs and Central City.
You gotta love a mine tour! I hope you struck it rich. There are a lot of fun ghost towns, dirt roads and history on these tours. We are glad you enjoyed it.
Will is great tour guide. The copilot and I loved it. We saw so many places and old mines. Very informative.
Love it! Thanks for the awesome review. We’re so glad Will kept things super informative and that you and your copilot had a blast exploring the old mines and scenic spots with him. Colorado’s mining history is so unique, and Will is the perfect guide to bring those old stories to life. Thanks for choosing Colorado Sightseer, and happy trails to you both until next time!
Hans, our tour guide, was a retired school teacher. He was very personable, knowledgeable, and friendly. He frequently checked in to make sure everyone in the tour group was having fun, comfortable, and take care of. The tour was fantastic, the mine and panning for gold were wonderful as well. Definitely a must-do for anyone even tangentially interested in history, geology, or learning about the state!
It sounds like you had a fantastic day at the mine! Hans has a 'teacher’s heart,' and it really shows in how he cares for his groups and ensures everyone is comfortable and involved. We’re so glad you enjoyed the gold panning—it’s such a fun way to connect with the state's heritage. We will be sure to share your kind words with Hans; he’ll be delighted to know he made your trip so special!
Worth seeing tour with lots of experiences and information. The tour guide knew well and has been able to report a lot of historical

Highly recommend!

Alex did an amazing job and kept us entertained with conversation and facts. It made the rude to and from go by so quickly. The actual mine tour was great very informative and entertaining too. I would highly recommend this tour especially if you are interested in gold mining.
Hey! Loved taking you out! It was a great little 'private' tour wasn't it? Next time you come back to visit your son give us a call. I would love to take you out on tour again!
It was great. Hans did a terrific job of explaining the history of the area. Also asked us about our expectations. Then tailored each stop to things we expressed interest in.
