Tour the Cullinan Diamond Mine

Participate in an educational tour of the Cullinan Diamond Mine, which produced one of the world's largest diamonds, also known as the Cullinan Diamond. More than a century has passed since this mine was established in Cullinan, in the country of South Africa.

As part of the Surface Mine Tour, you and your tour guide will go on an excursion across the surface of the mine.

In the on-site museum, which you will visit after your underground tour, you will see replicas of some of the most famous Cullinan diamonds, such as the Star of Africa and the Lesser Star of Africa, both of which are now part of the British Crown Jewels.
