Absolutely fabulous experience. Our tour guide really made us feel what it would be like to be a miner back in the day. A must do if you are in the area.

Our tour guide Julie was terrific. She shared an incredible amount of information with enthusiasm for 2+ hours. We gained a greater understanding of the hard life of miners. Well worth the ticket price!
