Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this tour? Thinking of bringing my 8-year-old!

A: There isn't a strict age limit for this tour, it's pretty family-friendly! Your 8-year-old should have a blast exploring the mine and eating pie afterwards. Just keep in mind that the underground part may be a bit dark and narrow, but the guides are great with kids. Make sure to check in with the tour provider if you have any specific concerns.

Q: What should I wear for the mine tour? Is it cold down there?

A: Definitely wear layers! The mine can be a bit chilly, so a light jacket or sweater is a good idea. Comfortable shoes are a must since you’ll be walking around a lot. Also, keep in mind that it can get a bit dusty down there, so don't wear anything too fancy. You’ll want to enjoy the day without worrying about your outfit!

Q: What if the weather is bad? Can we reschedule?

A: If the weather turns ugly, they usually do allow for rescheduling! Just reach out to SAN DIEGO RIDE & TOURS, INC, and they’ll help you find a different date that works. It’s best to have your plans flexible just in case, especially since the mine tour happens rain or shine, but you'll want nice weather for strolling around Julian.

Thinking of gifting the Julian Tour! Any thoughts?

I’m considering buying this Julian Tour for my parents’ anniversary! They love history and pie, so it seems perfect. The mine tour sounds cool, and I read you get to explore Main Street too. Can anyone share their experience? How’s the pie? Is it really as good as they say?

Did the Julian Tour yesterday, and it was awesome!

Just got back from the Julian Tour and wow, what a day! The mine tour was super interesting, learned a ton about the Gold Rush. Plus, the little shops in Julian were adorable. Had a killer burger for lunch. And yes, the pie? Totally lived up to the hype! Highly recommend this for a fun day out!
