This was an interesting tour. Our tour guide Lebo was very informative and knowledgeable about the subject content. Only disappointing part was not being able to actually go into the mine, that would have added to the experience.

We appreciate your feedback about not being able to enter the mine. While access is restricted by the mine operators, we understand how this would have added to the experience.

I had the tour with Pollen as my guide and it was amazing. The extent of knowledge he has and the insights he gave made the tour perfect. We started with the diamond mine visit, where you will learn everything about the South African mining in general and the cullinan mining in specific. After that we went to the union buildings followed by a short visit to the square and Kruger house. The tour was finished with the visit of the Vooortrekker monument where you learn all about the Dutch pioneers that settled the inland of ZA. The tour is about 8-9 hours long depending on where you live. I can only recommend the tour :)
