Kind of a hole in the wall place. The mine ride wasn’t really a ride, not worth paying at all. Customer service was great though. Gold panning instruction wasn’t great because only one employee was working. He was trying to do many things at once since it was busy. Gold panning wasn’t worth it either. The kids didn’t find anything. The only great part was the gem sluicing and the tomahawk throwing. A lot of the gems were smoothed not in raw form. Oh well at least the kids had some fun.

I was pretty impressed with our experience at Julian Mining Company. There was a lot of personal attention, teaching my son how to pan for gold. Even as it got crowded, the gentleman from the Mining Co kept checking in to make sure were were doing ok, enjoying it and finding gold. He even peppered my 4th grader (who is studying gold rush) with questions about gold mining. We walked the grounds and got a better insight into the mining tools used in Julian. For 7, the kids can pan for gold all day, so it's a pretty good way to spend a few educational hours outside. I'd definitely go back again.
Such a great place! We did a Zoom field trip with Ryan and Gina. Our company absolutely loved the learning about the pumpkins, the process to make apple cider and then we went over to the animals! Bubba!! love that pig and all the goats, \Strikey\ is the cutest! Then Ryan personally helped me load 300 pumpkins! As for the time of COVID it is a perfect place to do your \social distance\, feel comfortable and enjoy the day with family. Highly recommend. Thank you Ryan and Gina.
A group of tour guides from the San Diego Professional Tour Guide Association to a field trip to Julian to find out what there is to do besides the usual tourist destinations of San Diego. Here was a real hidden gem. What a great time we had panning for gold, picking berries, watching and holding the farm animals. This is a taste of down home country living only 45 minute scenic drive from the traffic of downtown San Diego. We agreed this is a place we can recommend to our many guests looking for a true California country experience, especially if you have young children or not. This would be something special to entertain your family or business event.
Took my family of all ages the Julian Mining Co. while my grandmother was in town and we had blast. We got hooked on panning when we realized there were gems and real flecks of gold to find! The staff as perfectly in character, knowledgeable and helped us have a great time. The boys enjoyed the tomahawk throwing, and hammered away making sturdy birdhouses and gem boxes. Would recommend for sure!
