Fodor's Expert Review Gold Prospecting Adventures
Jamestown
Tour–Sight
You'll get a real feel (sort of) for the life of a prospector on the three-hour gold-panning excursions (reservations recommended) led by this outfit's congenial tour guides. You might even strike gold at the Jimtown Mine. Even if you're not panning, it's fun to look at the gold-rush artifacts on display here.
