The tour itself- not so hot. The trouble was mainly our guide. She told everyone to hold their questions for the end of the way too short tour. Then, she couldn't answer any of the questions anyhow. Along the way, we walked past a plethora of interesting antique equipment. None of this equipment was addressed at all in the tour,... more
--Why is your reservation no good after 15 minutes prior to tour start? Because of standbys who got there 20 minutes prior to tour start. --So, if you don't have a reservation that you made weeks and weeks before, can you get in? Yes! The above two points are linked. First, try to make an online reservation, and THEN GET... more
We fortunately were able to get reservations a little over a month ago for a tour at the Mint. We had a few last-minute people in our group, but most who had reserved spots were there and on time. Like another poster stated, you NEED to be there at least 15 minutes before tour time. They quickly ushered us into... more
The Denver Mint does give FREE tours, however, you must make reservations. I made my reservations online about a month before we went. It was me , my husband and 2 daughters ages 11 and 8. The tour is about 45 minutes long but they recommend that you arrive 15 minutes prior to start time and bring your confirmation sheet... more
When you go to the US Mint website to make a reservation, you soon notice that they are booked way ahead of time because they take reservations without payment or any other sort of real commitment. Nevertheless, I managed to squeeze into the last remaining spot and happily headed downtown. I arrived maybe 5 minutes beforehand and was rudely told... more
We have gone to Denver for the last three years for visiting family and vacation. Every year we have tried to get tour reservations. We have not been successsful. So finally I called and spoke to a person who said she was in charge of tours. She informed me that the information to get reservations I had was incorrect and... more
I made a reservation in advance but several others in my tour were people who just showed up. Whether you can do so just depends on how crowded your tour is. We had an extremely knowledgeable tour guide. It was frustrating trying to get close enough to him to hear the tour as almost everyone else in the group were... more
Just went this Nov 2006. This is a great tour, FREE and fast 30-45 minutes. We made a reservation, just in case online at their website. Also know that you can not bring anything in other than a wallet that will fit in your hand (think of a man's wallet as the size) No cameras or cell phones at all...The... more
Contrary to what other reviewers are saying, The U.S. Mint in Denver does still give tours. You must have a reservation in advance to guarantee that you can take the tour. When you check out The Mint's website, you will see that for yourself and you can make the reservation. No big deal! Our 4, 5 & 6 year olds... more
I had a similar experience as the other people TRYING to visit the Denver Mint. We traveled from Alabama to take my 8 year old grandson to the mint. We arrived (without reservations- this was not mentioned on the web site when I was planning the trip.) on July 2, 2006. We were told we needed reservations and that reservations... more
