Different, Educational - This was wonderful experience for our entire family, but especially for my 8 year old son. Our guide Geovanny, was charismatic and professional. He spoke good English and communicated well with children. The tour was a semi-hands-on experience, between the mine and a small studio were the mineral is elaborated for jewelry. The views on the way up to the mountains were breathtaking and after many pictures we were able to relax over a delicious and abundant dinner of local seafood.
