Once in a Lifetime

Very dusty and fun. It all happens in an old mine town, very neat. Alisha, our tour guide, was very friendly, energetic and very knowledgeable about their ...ATVs and mines around the area.

The weather was perfect for the days adventure. We were picked up by the tour guide at our hotel at 9:00 am. After a short ride out into the desert we stop...ped at the el dorado gold mine where theres a very unique general store and a wide variety of things to see.
We start with the Atv ride in our group we had 8 single quads and 4 razor two seater UTV. We chose the two seater based on a previous excursion in October. Its a tour so not a lot of fast runs but it was fun. The views were incredible. We made a stop at a smaller mine attraction that had been abandoned due to thieves but the structure is straight out of a Hollywood film set .
Lunch was catered. You order in advance. The barn where you eat is difficult to describe but lets just say theres an old cannon there. Seating is limited.
The mine tour was memorable. You walk in a well lit mine and your guide explains in detail how things were done. Gives you perspective on the comforts we enjoy today.
I recommend this tour for those who dont mind wearing a helmet, goggles and gloves. Driving an ATV over moderate terrain and getting very dusty. Two thumbs up.
