About this experience
Step back into Nevada’s Wild West roots through a living ghost town just one hour from the Las Vegas Strip. Ride in the comfort of a luxury, custom Tour Trekker to Eldorado Canyon, home of the Techatticup Gold Mine. Go inside the mine’s shaft with a local mine expert and trace the quartz veins once rich with silver and gold.
Hear the stories of unruly men who blasted their way underground in search of treasures. Roam among historic cars, antique buildings and movie backdrops still used today. Your certified adventure guide will share tales of a town engulfed in riches but besieged by lawlessness, greed and murder.
Get spectacular photos overlooking the Colorado River at Nelson’s Landing, a 1920s river port at the mouth of Eldorado Canyon. Explore the unique features of Nevada’s desert landscape—from fields of Teddy Bear Cholla cacti to rare geological formations. Shop for souvenirs at the museum gift shop.
