We got off to a bumpy start here as there was a mechanical issue the day prior that canceled our initial reservation. Thankfully, they were able to move some stuff around and make it work for us on our second day in town so we could enjoy the snow ride, which was high on our list as a bunch of Southern California girls who never see the snow. We arrived all bundled up but the blankets in the sleigh were much appreciated as well. After our sleigh ride, they offered to give us a tour of the mine as well, which was an unexpected but nice gesture.

Other than that, there are some train cars and engines, a few play structures, a building (assuming it had a bathroom and information inside, but was closed), and there was a teepee there I'm the woods. My kid had fun and I'd stop in again after we visit the troll next time.

It was more of a historical tour of Breckenridge, which might have been okay; however, the guide kept getting details confused, correcting herself, and then getting confused again. She did have an iPad with a supposed picture of a ghost that she shared, but even the kids in our group could identify it as a bad photoshop. All in all, we felt it was false advertising regarding the content of the tour and the presentation was not that entertaining.

Our guide, Kevin, was an absolute star! He took so many pictures, gave us so much history as we drove, and pointed out all the sites to see. We even stopped for hot chocolate! Unfortunately, due to the snow, we didn't get to go tubing, but completely forgot about it til I wrote this review. Truly couldn't have imagined the tour with anyone else. Everyone was so kind from check in, to driving to the drop off spot, to coming back down after the tour. It was an incredible experience all around. Ps. Highly recommend getting the $30 insurance. A pair in our group unfortunately did tip the snowmobile over (all was fine and snowmobile was ok) but it's great to have just in case. You don't know how to navigate the turns until you're on them.
