The self guided tour has some interesting things to look at and read but I did not find it to be a "destination". My 3 year old enjoyed trying to pick up the gold brick.

We went to the Mint on a Saturday, and they were short staffed, so they let us go on an unguided tour for free. It was very interesting to see how money was made, and it's amazing how many countries we make money for. Nice gift shop as well.
This was an enjoyable half day out. The mint has a pleasant outlook. There's plenty of hands on activities in the gift shop area to keep the kids entertained while waiting for the next tour.

The Mint is not more than a short tour to see how money is made. It is interesting that this happens in Winnipeg, and that Winnipeg makes the money for so many countries, but, this is pretty boring for young children and other than the tour, there is not much to do.
Cool building and good interesting tour. More for adults than children. Little expensive. Found a geo cache on the property. Fountains need a little cleaning. Building under construction.

Been on both types of tours, enjoyed both and left...

A beautiful building that is gorgeous at sunset. Covered in mirror panels that reflect the sunset. Tour is very interesting and informative. Only two Mints in Canada and ours is the best!

It's a great shame that the British Royal Mint in Llantrisant does not do similar tours! The tour is very good value for money and there is a wide range of products...

It was a $20 CAN taxi ride each way from downtown but the tour itself is very imformative and the guide makes it very enjoyable. A nice activity if you are looking for something to do.
This place is a very wonderful place to visit. And take a tour as long as U dont have a infint with yout they charge $3.00 for the baby NOW THAT IS VERY VERY CHEAP AND WRONG. Other wise it is worth the visit
