Gecko Jewellers & Mapatiza Mine – A Sparkling Family Day Out!

Discover the hidden gem of Midrand at Gecko Jewellers & Mapatiza Mine! Families can enjoy a fun and educational underground mine tour (R70 for kids, R80 for adults), dig for treasure in the scratch patch (from R80), and let little adventurers zoom around on push paddle go-karts for just R20. Kids love the gemstone panning, crystal digging, and our interactive group beading class (R150 per child).

After the fun, relax at our cozy coffee shop while browsing Africa’s largest gemstone showroom. It’s the perfect outing for curious kids and adventurous moms alike!
