Kimberley Mine Museum

Restored buildings at this historic site include a pub, a smoke shop and the De Beers family home. The mine itself is an astonishing crater from which over 22 million tons of earth has been removed by hand.

We love this museum and come back year after year. It really gives a real feeling of how Kimberley was in the warly years. Most buildings are original. The tram ride is also a definate must and it enhances the whole experience. Visit it different part of the day morning/Afternoon and early evening to get a different experience.

McGregor Museum

Reviewed By PhilG874 - Leyland, United Kingdom

Some excellent displays in this quiet little museum and very well laid out. It covers the wildlife, and early man right up to modern day wars. Not expensive to visit and somewhere to pass a good few hours just soaking up the history of Kimberley. Recommend a visit in your in the area.
