J	Jason T on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great experience. Lots of time on the train, underground, and in the power house. I think it was about 90 minutes plus total. Awesome guides. Lots to learn. It's great that former miners are the main tour guides. Get there early so you don't miss out on tickets. Kids loved it. Definitely worth it for the family. A Kimberley must do.
g	ginni brown on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This was well worth the money. The guide was a person who worked in the mine for over 30 years and was very knowledgeable. The train ride into the mining interpretation centre was fun.
Y	YT12ish on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is an amazing tour. Train ride to underground mine, back on train for tour of power plant then back on train. Very fun and very informative. So fortunate to have been on this tour!
B	Beth Neibert on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a fabulous experience! The telling of the Sullivan Mine's history and experiences by a man with over 35 years of personal experience made it a history lesson worth paying attention to. Travel by rail made the journey easy and even more interesting. Even if this stop might be off your route, take the detour. The over 90 minute experience was priceless.
B	Betsy Turner on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Sooooo fun to learn about this small town mining company that contributed so very much to the region. Kimberley is a must visit town in beautiful BC. Great history and a very hospitable town to visit. The train ride through the mine area was very enlightening. Check it out soon and support the local economy!
D	Dan Plant on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a train ride and an interpretation center that takes you in a small underground area to show how mining was carried out over the nearly 100 years at the Sullivan mine in Kimberley BC. Actual miners (retired) not only show, but demonstrate some of the equipment used. Inside is much cooler than outside (which is great in the hot summer months) but if you get chilled easily, bring a jacket or sweater. After the mine, the train takes you to the powerhouse where you can see the air compressors, generators and the actual model used in the planning office. Well worth the trip, the tour takes almost 2 hours to complete so plan accordingly.
M	Marc D. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We brought our young children to the KUMR to enjoy something that you don't get a chance to experience elsewhere. They loved the train ride, enjoyed the beautiful scenery and enjoyed seeing some wildlife along the way. They were a little scared at first of the tunnel as it is very dark in spots, but this is part of the experience. The interpretive part of the train ride was lost on them, but it is very educational and gives a glimpse not only into the local area and this particular mine, but also the life the miners lived. We'll definitely return once our children are a bit older.
