Pretoria and diamond mine tour
This was an interesting tour. Our tour guide Lebo was very informative and knowledgeable about the subject content. Only disappointing part was not being able to actually go into the mine, that would have added to the experience.
Response from the operator: Hi dianez9... Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and that Lebo's knowledge and informative commentary enhanced your experience. We appreciate your feedback about not being able to enter the mine. While access is restricted by the mine operators, we understand how this would have added to the experience. We hope to welcome you on another tour soon! The MoAfrika Tours Team

Wonderful tour to see Pretoria and its surrounding sights
I had the tour with Pollen as my guide and it was amazing. The extent of knowledge he has and the insights he gave made the tour perfect. We started with the diamond mine visit, where you will learn everything about the South African mining in general and the cullinan mining in specific. After that we went to the union buildings followed by a short visit to the square and Kruger house. The tour was finished with the visit of the Vooortrekker monument where you learn all about the Dutch pioneers that settled the inland of ZA. The tour is about 8-9 hours long depending on where you live. I can only recommend the tour :)
Response from the operator: Hi Insa3008 Thank you for your fantastic review! We're delighted to hear you had such an enjoyable Pretoria and Cullinan Diamond Mine tour with Pollen. His extensive knowledge and insightful storytelling truly bring South Africa's history and heritage to life. We're glad you enjoyed each stop, from the diamond mine to the Union Buildings, Kruger House, and the Voortrekker Monument. Thank you for your recommendation—we hope to welcome you back on another MoAfrika Tours adventure soon! The MoAfrika Tours Team

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Pretoria.
How much does Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $2210 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Pretoria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Pretoria is not rushed.
Is Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 70 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Pretoria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 12. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour?
+
Around 25 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Pretoria can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Pretoria and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pretoria City and Diamond Mine Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Pretoria within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Pretoria?
+
On Outty we rank every Pretoria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soweto Half Day Tour, Elephant Experience & Lesedi Cultural Village, Pilanesberg Game Reserve 6 Hour Sunrise Safari from Johannesburg or Pretoria. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Pretoria?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Pretoria?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
