The Historic Georgetown Loop
Our most popular mountain railroad adventure is the historic Georgetown Loop Railroad tour. From early May to the first week in January, we feature daily excursions to the “Silver Queen of the Rockies,”… Georgetown, CO. This railroad traces its heritage all the way back to the booming silver rush days of the 1880’s, when tons of rich minerals were freighted down the tracks through Clear Creek Canyon to the smelters of Denver.
Just getting to Georgetown's Devil's Gate train station (named after a very intriguing rock formation that your driver will point out) is a unique adventure as the limo van journey features a brief intermission high atop Loveland Pass at 11,990 feet above sea level. The splendor of the Continental Divide is on full display as we present a photographic opportunity for all of you shutterbugs that bankrupts the English language with its raw beauty.
After filling your bellies with great food, your driver then performs an impromptu magic show, featuring some of the younger guests on the tour as the magician's apprentices… complete with prizes for all the youngsters! Before leaving the park, we commemorate the fun with a relaxing photo opportunity at the Lunch Log, for one of the most endearing family settings in America. So don’t forget to bring your video camera and be ready to capture some once-in-a-lifetime footage. Next, we take our guests to Downtown Historic Georgetown, where we feature a leisurely stroll through the fascinating old-time curio shops in the frontier downtown promenade. How does fabulous discounts on exquisite hand-crafted jewelry, souvenir hats, t-shirts and free large hand-crafted sodas from an authentic 1901 soda fountain sound?
This 8 hour Georgetown Loop Deluxe Tour is the truly the epitome of Colorado summer fun!

If your time and budget is somewhat limited, we can still make the best outdoor adventure in the Rockies part of your agenda! In a compact 4 hour timeframe, your family can get direct door-to-door van service, take a round-trip ride on the train and, sure enough, still manage to stop in downtown Georgetown long enough to slurp those delicious FREE old-fashioned root beers! With this tour, there are multiple departure times available throughout the day to fit your personal schedule. Give us four hours and we'll pay you back with never-ending smiles!
6 Hour Georgetown Loop & Shopping Tour
You still get the breath-taking Loveland Pass photo op, the round-trip railroad adventure, the self-guided Georgetown stroll, with lots of great discounts and coupon offers, plus of course, the FREE old-fashioned root beers – all in a compact 6 hour setting. This option is available in morning, noon-time and afternoon timeframes and just like the full-day tour, we begin and end the journey right at your front door in Summit or Eagle County.
6 Hour Georgetown Loop & Mining Tour
If you'd prefer to take the Lebanon Silver Mine Tour instead of the self-guided stroll through Georgetown, we can give you that option for just a few dollars more with the 6 hour Georgetown Loop Train/Silver Mine Tour. In the middle of your narrow-gauge steam engine train ride, you stop at the Lebanon Silver Mine and take a fascinating underground adventure in a well lit, well ventilated silver mine from the 1880's. As an added bonus, you can combine these two different 6 hour options for your family so that Mom can get some extra time to check out all of the fascinating shops in historic Georgetown while Dad and the kids don their hardhats and explore the deep underground world of the mythical Tommyknockers!
