What a great day, thanks to Bluey for a very interesting and informative underground tour, thanks to Trudy who gave us a quick education on how to sieve, and wash dirt and sort the pretty rocks from the gemstones, we stayed much longer than we thought we would. Deduct a couple of points as the cafe was not open and the website needs updating as the price online was not the price on site.

Miners heritage was an interesting visit, we did the underground tour and found the tour interesting but a bit limited, with the knowledge of our guide not great, the tour was limited to scripted information which was rather dissapointing. The lady attending the front desk was rude straight off the bat, telling my children not to break anything even though we had just walked in. To be honest, probs not do again.

Thus is actually a really good tour if you have never been into a mine before. Very informative and really friendly staff

Absolutely loved this tour! The guide was fabulous and it was so interesting to walk down on the mine floor that was the old riverbed! I couldn't believe how deep we went underground and the bonus was the tiny cute bent-wing bats we got to see. We were so lucky to see the famous Richardson sapphires too as they happened to be on display! Would definitely recommend

This was our second time visiting the Heritage Mine after many years. We enjoyed the informative underground mine tour. For a big family it is a bit expensive. The kids enjoyed seeing the micro bats in the mine and learning the stories of old. The staff in the shop were friendly and happy to talk about the gems. This trip we didn't bother buying a bag of wash as we wanted to do it out in nature. We enjoyed it the previous time we did it.
