A really informative and interesting tour - I was expecting a group tour but I was the only participant. My guide, Lindela, picked me up promptly from the hotel and we drove to the diamond mine in his very comfortable car. The tour at the mine was really interesting. Health, safety and security were top priorities and we had to sign a disclaimer, then a briefing and a short video before heading off on the tour with our guide Sharon. We even had to do a breathalyser test to gain access to the secure area. I was beginning to think we were going down the mine but thank goodness they didn’t as it is 900 m deep! After the tour we drove into Pretoria which took about half an hour. It was a national holiday so we could not access a couple of the sites which was disappointing, Our visit to the Voortrekker Monument was a highlight for me. Lindela gave me so much information and I learnt so much about South African history, his knowledge was superb, thank you Lindela!

Extremely interesting history and mine experience! - Amazing history and great introduction to South Africa. Thoroughly enjoyed our 8-hr day tour from Joburg, with the highlight being the Kruger monument and the Cullinan diamond mine. Would highly recommend this company and tour!

Extremely educational and immersive - We had a fascinating tour of Pretoria with Lindela, who was extremely knowledgeable in his African history! He then dropped us at the Cullinan mine where we had a very interesting and informative 2-hr tour of the mine’s surface and structures, and learned how diamonds are mined and processed there. A very educational 8-hr day in a comfortable car with an excellent guide. Highly recommend!

Do not do the Cullinan mine tour - Ali was a fabulous knowledgeable guide. Pretoria was a very good stop. The CULLINAN SURFACE MINE TOUR was NOT worth the time or expense. You go through a security check, breathalyzer, and physical just to walk around the grounds and the museum. Then they take you to the shop to sell you diamonds. I would stay clear of this tour.
