Day trip to virginia city, nevada.
July 25, 2019 · In: Nevada , USA , WANDERLUST
Virginia City is a quick 15-mile drive from Carson City. This unique small town is forever stuck in the 1800’s and exudes an old western vibe throughout the town. Most of the buildings are in its original state, the walkways are made with old wooden boards, and people are casually walking around in cowboy hats and boots. Virginia City is also chock full of history as it was the first discovery site of silver ore in the United States. Here are a few places you won’t want to miss during your day trip to Virginia City, Nevada.
1. Go on a trolley tour
The trolley tour of Virginia City is arguably one of the first things you have to do once you get into town. This 20-30 minute tour takes you all around Virginia City where you’ll pass by historical buildings, churches, the Chollar mine, and so much more. It’s a great introduction to the city, especially if you’ve never been here before.
[Pro tip: the trolley boarding stop is a bit hidden, but it is located in the parking lot next to The Bucket of Blood Saloon. You pay the driver once you board the trolley. This tour is cash-only]
2. Witness a live gun fight
While walking through Virginia City, you’ll quickly notice that there are a ton of people wearing old-fashioned western clothing. At first I thought that this was the actual threads that people wore here, but I found out that they are actually cast members of the Virginia City Outlaws , a comedy show with gun fights and crazy stunts.
The show takes place at The Ole Virginny Theater and they only have 2-3 showtimes per day! The production is only 30 minutes long and is worth every minute. After the show, you may take photos with the sets which makes for great photo backgrounds.
3. Indulge in some good BBQ for lunch
Barbecue joints are all over the streets in Virginia City, however, my favorite place for some good ol’ fashioned barbecue was the Virginia City Jerky Co. & Smokehouse BBQ . I ordered the Tri tip sandwich with potato salad and a sweet tea, and it was perfection. All their food is made in-house and all of the spices and meats were fresh and made to order.
Once you finish your meal, I highly recommend grabbing a bag or two of their homemade beef jerky to snack on throughout the day.
4. Go souvenir shopping
There are a ton of great places to go shopping in Virginia City. I loved that a lot of the shops are local business and have a beautiful mess of knick knacks, clothing, antiques, and art work. A few of my favorite shops are Things and Things and Things , Virginia City Antique Mall , and the Comstock Rock Shop.
During my trip, I picked up a few enamel pins, a tree of life macrame piece, and a few native crystals for my collection.
5. Enjoy a cold drink at the Bucket of Blood
One thing that I really love about Virginia City is that there are a ton of saloons and bars. Out of all of them, the Bucket of Blood Saloon really stood out to me. The building has been around since the 1800’s and the decor still emulates the simple, old western times where people would come to the saloon to relax and unwind after a hard day’s work. It was definitely my favorite pit stop to get away from the crowds and enjoy a nice, cold beer in a cozy bar with AC.
6. Grab some ice cream at Grandma’s Fudge Factory
If your sweet tooth is kicking in during your trip, Ice cream is the only way to go. Located in the heart of Virginia City, Grandma’s Fudge Factory sells not only the best fudge in town, but also some darn good ice cream.
I ordered the Maui Sherbet which tasted like frozen POG juice, and the generous servings really blew me away! You’ll definitely want to stick to a small size or even share with a friend.
This guide only covers a small fraction of the activities you could do in Virginia City. There is so much to explore and learn about the rich silver mining history of Virginia City. You may want to consider extending your day trip to a weekend.

Virginia City isn’t an amusement park. It’s the real deal.
By: Lake Tahoe Staff
Exploring the mines that helped to fund the Civil War and establish Nevada as a state, Virginia City is only about a 45-minute drive from South Lake Tahoe. With its wooden boardwalk, historic landmarks, including the last school of its kind in the U.S. and most expensive courthouse built in the state for 50 years, Virginia City, Nevada , offers a real glimpse to what life on the Comstock was all about.
Virginia City itself includes a mile-long strip filled with shopping centers, restaurants, saloons, souvenir shops and historical venues that could easily give you a perfect day trip. Some say it has the largest concentration of bars for the town’s mile street – at one point in its history, it boasted more than 110 saloons. Several have sordid pasts including many ghost stories. Some say Janis Joplin, who played at the Red Dog Saloon , haunts the stage there today. Virginia City is a mecca for ghost hunters with noted ghost sightings at the Washoe Club and, in fact, offers ghost tours especially for adventuresome visitors. This tour includes not only an interesting take on the paranormal activity but a great look on what the buildings looked like back in their time, for anyone who is curious of the building structures. You can also stay the night with a group of 6, if interested, in the Washoe Club for some spooky scares.
Another great highlight located within the main strip of Virginia City is their visitor center. The staff provides information, direction and ticket purchases for any of the fun activities you may be interested in doing, while the building has historical artifacts, portraits, and memorabilia to catch the eyes of the visitor.
One of the most popular activities to get involved in are the tours. A tour is a perfect way for visitors to become engaged in the city’s glowing history. Located in the Virginia City Trolley Tours Bus Parking, is the trolley tour . The trolley tour is a 20-minute narrated ride that takes you along the historical landmarks.
Another great tour to take is the V&T Railroad ride and tour located at the “Virginia and Truckee Railroad Depot.” This tour makes you feel as though you’ve gone back in time with a narrated trip while enjoying the scenery around you. The V&T railroad train transported gold and silver ore from Virginia City to Carson City and beyond. Virginia City’s minings amounted to millions of dollars during their time era. In today’s world, their millions would now equal our billions. For a real rush, hop on the TNT Stagelines. It’s the only operating stagecoach in the U.S. that tops out at speeds of 25 miles per hour or more. It’s the original thrill ride.
Other tours that you may be interested in include mine tours and historic walking tours. For sure, Virginia City has its share of museums with all 17 operating from May to October with a slight decrease during the winter months. In fact, each May to October (excluding July) the museums host a free museum day the first Friday of each month – Flashback Friday’s Free Museum Days . It’s your chance to learn all about the history of the Comstock. Donations are recommended.
Other activities to round out your day trip include taking an old-time family portrait at Priscilla Pennyworth’s Old Time Photos or let the kids pan for gems at the Virginia City Mining Company. Venture off the main road to find even more unique Virginia City history like the only operating gold stamp mill in the state or the Chollar Mine tour, an authentic mine journey.
A visit here really allows you to step back in time. At its peak, Virginia City was a thriving metropolis of 25,000 people. The bountiful discovery of the Comstock Lode in the late 1850s drew men and women from around the world to live and work in this high-desert community. At its peak, Virginia City became one of the most important industrial cities this side of Denver with the silver from the mines helping to build San Francisco and, most importantly, help finance the Civil War and thus propelling Nevada into statehood.
Today, not a whole lot has changed on the Comstock, and that’s okay. Virginia City isn’t an amusement park. It’s the real deal. Visitors can get a taste of history and see what it was like living and working here in the 19th century. For instance, you may have heard of Samuel Clemens, better known as Mark Twain. Virginia City is where he first penned the name Mark Twain while working at the local paper, The Territorial Enterprise. The Mark Twain Museum at the Territorial Enterprise offers a look into what it was like working for the paper when he was there. Tour the Ponderosa Mine in the back of the old Bank of California building to see the underground workings of a real mine.
To conclude, Virginia City’s history is vibrant as ever all year long. It’s quite the gem within the area to visit. To start your adventure, begin at the Visitors Center, located at 86 South C Street. For more information on Virginia City, visit online, check out their Mobile App or call 775-847-7500. Be sure to ask about the Comstock Adventure Pass offering packages and discounts on local attractions.
