Fun for kids
Nice to go for the game experience with a young kid. You get to learn about the general experience in the mines, yet, if you hope to have a real mine experience... that will not happen. Overall, you get to learn a bit, you can go all the way to the top of the mine tower to have a panoramic view of the surroundings. Don't expect too much and you will enjoy.

Expected more
We believe there's more to be done with this experience than what was provided. Of course, we visited this expedition during covid, which was hard as most parts of the expedition are things you'll have to interact on alone or in your bubble. Therefor we had to wait a long time and also skipped a couple of things. We missed the feeling what it was to be a mineworker more, as the visual experience wasn't enough to what we expected. Not sure if they have some people performing tours as mineworkers, but that would have been great. Or to have more videos of these people sharing their experiences.
