An excellent, authentic trip down the galleries of this disused mine. We had an anglophone guide, which helped us understand the very interesting social history of the miners, as well as the engineering. This is not a gimmicky experience but I would stron
Easy to book, strongly recommended.
Visite très intéressante
Très belle visite. Le musée était très intéressant. C'était très ludique avec l'histoire de Zito. Les enfants n'ont pas trop aimé cette partie. En revanche, nous avons tous les 4 adoré la visite de la mine. Le guide était très compétant. En plus, nous avons été ravis de croiser un groupe de speleologues qui portaient nos lampes STOOTS :)
Schönes Erlebnis
sehr freundliches Personal; schön gestaltete Ausstellung im Museum mit Audioguide, der die Informationen in passender Länge zusammengefasst hat; wenn man zuerst im Museum war, kann man sich bei der Führung die damalige Arbeit noch besser vorstellen; Empfehlung für jung und alt
