A tour with the Explore Africa Tours guide will allow you to see all the attractions- historical exhibits, the mine, all the entertainment facilities, and shops. Africa's greatest theme park created around an authentic 19th century Gold mine with underground tours, gold pouring, historical exhibits, restaurants, amusement attractions, a Victorian hotel and a casino with 1600 machines and 60 tables.
