Take the new Adventure Tour! Gold Fever!

Our all-new guided Gold Fever! Tour is never the same twice. Relive Sacramento’s boomtown days, when gold ruled and you were always an eyeblink away from triumph or tragedy.

You’ll become one of the real-life rascals who scratched and clawed to make this the center of the Gold Rush. The Gold Fever! Tour throws in elements of chance that may change your fate.

Will floods, fires and disease destroy your fortune, or will you escape to thrive anew in the gold State? Will you grow rich with the new railroad and steamboats in the brand-new Capital City – or blow it all at the gaming tables? You won’t know until you catch Gold Fever!

The tours start and end at the Sacramento Visitors Center, 1002 Second Street, near the corner of Second and J streets.

The 2018 Gold Fever! Tour season runs from April 1, 2018 to December 17, 2018. Tickets are available for the full 2017 season now! Tour dates and times vary throughout the year. Follow the link to buy tickets to see the full 2018 season’s schedule of tours.
