Las Vegas Tours: Ride Where the Gold Miners Did

April 18th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

For a real taste of history on a Las Vegas tour, you should really take a horseback ride out into the desert. It´s a unique way to see the area around Las Vegas and you´ll actually retrace the steps of the old gold miners and even the ever so famous Jesse James.

Las Vegas tours, horseback riding

When the first settlers arrived here, most of them were on horseback or in covered wagons. You can actually ride where they did and feel their ghosts watching you from the entrances of the abandoned gold mines that you ride past.

Apart from being an amazing historical adventure, this Las Vegas tour is also a good way to check out the local scenery. If you are interested in the more natural part of Las Vegas, this is the place to do it. There are amazing natural sights on the tour, rock formations that take your breath away, amazing vegetation and dozens of tiny desert critters.

There are some great photo ops on this Las Vegas tour. No one back home will believe that you were riding through the desert like Jesse James . . . they´ll expect you to be in the casinos! But there is far more to Las Vegas than just casinos and you can really enjoy a horseback ride to the wilder side of the desert.
