We enjoyed Virginia City and all the shops and history but it's better if you had a rental and drove there yourself. Ran out of time and the train ride was not what we thought it would be...very cheesy.

Informative bus tour, comfortable bus. Train was BIT as pictured. We had a yellow and green train with out windows so we got a little wet when we got unexpected rain. No rain was forecast
