Wild Old West ATV Tour + 1861 Ghost Town & Goldmine Tour + Lunch
Overview
Experience one of the best Las Vegas ATV tours with the Old West ATV & Gold Mine Adventure. Step back in time on a guided walking tour of a historic 1861 ghost town filled with rare antiques, Old West buildings, vintage equipment, and classic cars from the early 1900s. This famous filming location feels like a Wild West or Mad Max movie set.
Next, enjoy a 75–90 minute guided single-rider ATV ride through the scenic Eldorado Canyons with sweeping desert views. No experience required—our VIP guides provide safety instruction and personalized support while delivering excitement. Embrace F.E.A.R. (Feeling Excited Adrenaline Rush) as you get dirty and have fun, with photos and videos captured along the way.
After riding, enjoy a Capriotti’s lunch and relax in our shaded Adventure Zone with misters and games. Finish with the WOW factor: a guided tour inside a world-famous 1861 gold mine, where legendary Old West stories come to life in a naturally cool 70-degree setting.
