Very cool stop for the kids (ages 4 and 5) while in Cornwall. The buildings are eerie and frozen in time, but brought to life by the wonderful staff. The boys were able to see the workings of the mine and pan for their own stones in a wash sink. It was a great activity for a day where the weather wasn't great as much of it is inside. Make sure to do the tunnel tour, but not if you are claustrophobic! It was a tight squeeze for my 6' husband and brother, but they made it. We also walked down to the shore and explored around some of the other abandoned areas of the mine. Cafe and cute giftshop to explore and buy souvenirs on your way out.

An outstanding experience and interesting day out. Quite moved by the lovely Grant our tour guide, telling us first hand about his experience at the mine first hand. Very knowledgeable and interesting tour of the site. The mine underground is a short walk through, but gives a taste of what conditions were life. Lovely & helpful staff everywhere. Lots to see here. Great museum. Well thought out. Must do -visit the building called The Dry. Beautiful setting on the coast, and walks around the site. Gift shop had some really unique reasonably priced gifts and books. Cafe was great. Large portions. Beautiful views through the window on to the sea and panoramic views. Would highly recommend this for your trip itinerary. Especially if you are interested in mining. Couldnt fault the experience.

What an excellent visit. It gave an amazing insight into the Cornish mining industry, and the people who worked in it. The guide, Steve, was an ex miner, and the picture he painted of life underground was a vivid illustration of how conditions the workers had to endure was truly inspiring. We left with nothing but admiration for those brave men who toiled day in, day out to bring tin ore to the surface, not to mention those men and women who then processed the fruits of their labour. A must visit when visiting West Cornwall.

My p.a. Chris and I had a fantastic day, and we really have picked the right day for a visit to Geevor Tin Mines. We have taken on a tour to look at how different kinds of minerals are made into all kinds of things like copper and tin. As we took a deep into the Wheal Mexico mine mill, we were shown how each machine and shaking tables are used to mine the tin. And there are ALOT of shaking tables. The cafe there is also very brilliant 😊👍 and provides a friendly staff serving us. It was a great place to have our lunch there before our tour began. At the end of the day, we manage to have a look at the other parts. The Hard Rock museum is very interesting, and "the dry" is very excellent, and the outside view is very breathtaking. We had a lovely time and could not wait to come back again. Hopefully, one day, we'll get to explore more.

We debated coming here, fearing our girls (5 and 8) would not be interested. Came here on a rainy day and what a great time we had! There's plenty to see and do to immerse yourself into the mining history and enough to keep the kids entertained too. The quiz/trail kept them motivated to follow us around but they also enjoyed the immersive exhibits in the museum. They loved the panning for little gems and walking through the mine tunnel. All staff were wonderful, ready to answer any questions. We also enjoyed a demonstration of the shaking tables, which was great. We ended our visit in the cafe which was as good as everyone else mentioned before. Don't wait for a rainy day, go visit and enjoy the views and walk to Levant mine.

Went here not expecting much. Had a great morning here. Well presented exhibits, photos of miners and a great talk from an ex miner. The mill was fun, panning for gems and seeing a shaker deck in action. Even the walk in an old mine tunnel was interesting. Shame the mine tunnels had no plans to be used for an energy source when asked the old miner. Seems a missed opportunity in the current climate.

Insightful day out exploring an old tin min including a tour of one of one of the old mines. The tour guide, Andrew, was absolutely fantastic and was knowledgeable and enthusiastic throughout. Good value for money and a must see if you are staying in Pendeen, St Just, Sennen and the surroundings.

Really interesting place, staff super friendly and very informative. Views are spectacular. Very dog friendly except not allowed underground. Cafe staff bought out a plate of dog treats even before I had ordered my meal. Which was a very delicious ploughman's I feel sure they put extra cheese on for the dog as it was a huge lump. Everything was perfect and lots of land to walk the dog. I would recommend pre booking in the high season well worth a visit.

Went to geevor over the Easter break (during a huge storm ). And what a fantastic day. all 4 children from 7 to 1 had a blast and not just from the 50mph winds. There’s so much to see they’re always kept buisy. The food in the cafe is very well priced and very tasty and the staff are all lovely I’d recommend this to anybody well worth the visit

We visited this place as a family (2 adults, 2 kids - 8 and 10 years old) and had a great time. As you walk through the buildings, make sure you speak with the guides - they were super-friendly and shared a lot of knowledge with us about mining operation. Great learning experience for the kids.
