Historic Gold Mining & Panning Adventure Package

Catch gold fever with guaranteed gold. Keep all you can find!
Tour Includes escorted tour by prospector/guide from the dock; van transfer to Gold Creek; use of rain ponchos if needed; gold panning lessons; narration on the gold discovery of Juneau and hard rock mining; take home the gold you pan; gold claim certificate; return transfer to the dock.

Catch “gold fever” and experience what it was like to seek your fortune during Gold Rush days! Learn to pan for gold (and keep all you find!), and discover Juneau’s colorful mining heritage for yourself. Head out with a prospector/guide for a historical tour of Juneau en route to “Last Chance Basin”.

Your prospector will show you how gold panning is done on the banks of Gold Creek, in a beautiful, secluded mountain setting. We are the only company allowed to use this special place, but the locals know how much gold is still there, so you will likely witness some real panners. Expertly work the pan with helpful tips, and you will find gold–guaranteed!
