Resplan
Diamantgruvan är en fantastisk plats där världens största diamant hittades. Diamanten gavs sedan till drottningen av England som en present från vår president i Sydafrika Paul Kruger. Surface-turen är tillgänglig måndag till söndag på R150. Denna tur är bara 2 timmar lång
Det största museet på södra halvklotet och nyligen uppgraderat. Följ med oss när vi tar dig tillbaka till den första vita bosättaren som bygger ett av världens rikaste länder. Museet har fantastiska exempel på Ox-vagnar, utrustning, artefakter och allmänna livsstilsrepliker. Om du har något intresse för sydafrikansk historia är denna turné ett måste. Din guide har omfattande kunskap om museet och dess bostäder och gick i skolan i Pretoria. Du kommer inte bara att uppleva museet utan bli underhållen i Sydafrikas historia av din guide
Ett kort besök på 1 timme till regeringens kontor. Arkitekten Sir Herbet Baker designade denna fantastiska byggnad som har blivit en ikonisk struktur som Sydafrika är mycket stolt över. Det finns också en enorm staty av Nelson Mandela med fotografiska alternativ.
En biltur genom staden för att ge dig en uppfattning om stadslivet i det centrala affärsdistriktet. Vi passerar också genom Hatfield vår universitetsstad.

Amazing experience with Shane. A good blend of professional and ethical values. He has good knowledge of history, etiquettes, places to visit, which normally other guides do not share with tourists.
Thank you guys for a wonderful review. All the best for the rest of your tours in South Africa. Safe travels. Shane
Shane is very experienced guide,he took us round the place,and informed us even minute details ,he is well mannered and knowledgeable,we would recommend him to hire his services to anyone who wants to visit south Africa especially Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town,you will not find such a decent fellow as a guide,his driving skills are par excellence....
Thank you Sudheer for taking the time to do a review for me. I really appreciate. It was such fun and honor spending the day with you and your wife. All the best. Shane
The day trip was outstanding. The 2 hour surface tour of the Cullinan diamond mine was good , and the little village interesting with great coffee. We saw the major sites of Pretoria with our guide’s stories about growing up there. The Voortrekker Monument and museum were very interesting with Shane’s commentary about the history and displays, and his inside knowledge. Great views from the top. Shane is an excellent guide , very pleasant all day and gave us lots of interesting history, facts and stories about South Africa. The drive passed quickly as he answered our questions. Good value, a highlight of my time in Johannesburg, highly recommended.,
Thank you Suzanne for taking time to do a review. I am happy you enjoyed the tour. All the best for your experiences in Africa. All the best Shane
A very interesting day, where we learn a lot about the history of South Africa and its industrial and territorial conquest. Perfect for all history and art lovers, and for all curious in general.
Thank you Ophélie It was such a pleasure having you on the tour. All the best with your buisness and hope to see you back in SA soon. Shane
It’s only a transfert ! The mine is stopping, we saw nothing. Be careful, IT’S NOT A UNDERGROUND TOUR When we reserved, we thought it was but no ! Don’t trust photos Shaine is a good guy.
Thankyou Vincent for the comments. Unfortunately when you booked you did not read about the tour. It specifically states that it is a 2 hour surface tour. I'm surprised that you blame me for not reading what you booked for and then give me a 1 star rating. Very unfair. The mine is not stopping. When you explained that you only look at photos I offered you a free tour of Pretoria, that you declined. Anyway I wish you all the best and enjoy South Africa The tour as advertised: Come and see where the Queen of England's diamond's came from and where some of the largest diamonds in the world are found. There is an informative presentation before going on the the surface tour that is 2 hours in duration Surface Tour 2 Hours R 150 Mondays to Sunday 10 am and 12 Option Costs between R100 and R150. This is at the Mine Village Coffee and/or Tea R 35
Beautiful visit, very interesting! The guide is truly amazing, gives lots of advice and is super prepared! It was truly a pleasure getting to know Shane
Thank you Giorgia for this positive review in Italian. It was fantastic meeting you and your partner and I look forward to seeing you back in South Africa. All the best for the future and safe travels. Shane
We enjoyed visiting Cullinan mine with Shane. Everything was well organised and run. We had a nice lunch in nearby coffee shop suggested by Shane. It was a short, but enjoyable trip. We highly recommend this tour whilst staying in South Africa.
Thank you Natasha. Have a wonderful holiday. Shane
This was a truly outstanding tour. Cullinan (now Petra) Mines was very interesting and my guide was an excellent host - very friendly, personable and helpful. He deserves to be congratulated. The mine’s guide was also very knowledgeable. I have travelled around the world several times and found this tour amongst the very best.
Wow Robert thank you for the review. You are definitely the most traveled and most famous client I have had. The 4 hours of non stop discussions and interresting/amazing adventures we spoke about should be recorded one day in a book. To get this rating from you has made my day. Thank you.
What a fun tour and our driver Shane was great. The tour ended a little early and Shane went above and beyond driving us around showing us different sites.
Hi David and Cole . Thank you for joining me on our new Diamond tour. It looks like we have got the mine to let us go underground again. Next time you hear, the tour is on me. Travel safe and hopefully we see you in SA again for an Adventure in the mountains. Thanks for the review . Shane
We really enjoyed the surface and underground tour of the historic Cullinan diamond mine near Joburg, South Africa. The guide Leo was a former manager of underground mining and very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The tour was easy physically and very informative. We really appreciate Petra allowing these tours to take place.
Thank you John for the review . We look forward to many tourists joining us on this special visit that is unique in its adventure. Shane
