    The place is honestly amazing. I recommend it to everyone really. On the way to the mines the staff has you to board a train which is really shaky but don't worry. My only issue would be the videos that they showed us. Especially the second one , it got kinda boring. EVERYTHING else was amazing 10/10 recommend both for kids and adults

    A very interesting guided tour that lasts 90-120 minutes into the mine and the museum. A must for all the family, the mine is very fascinating and provides all the information about the mining process. After the tour into the mine (18 m. down the mountain) you enter the museum with audio guide to complete the tour. Suitable for all ages (we visited with my 8 and 4 years old children) and we were very excited. Make sure you book your time before you go via their website.

    We came to central Greece in the heat wave and went to the mine as it was cool. We knew nothing about bauxite mining in Greece and now we do! Great local museum doing a great job education the next generation on how hard life was in the past. Bit dated but in a lovely way. Really friendly guides. Can’t recommend enough.

    Very professional, it's much better than what you would expect from their website. The children from 4 to 9 loved it. It has audio translations in multiple languages.

    Here you can have an informative tour guide into a mining site. You can learn about the history of the area, the mining process and you also get the chance to descend down to the mining galleries. The whole tour takes 1-2 hours.

    Amazing experience going into the mine with the small train and learning everything for mining. The stuff of the museum where so nice to us with great knowledge! They also had a German language tour for my wife. I recommend it 100%

    Mixed feelings about this one. The excursion is split in two halfs for about 30 min each. The first one is boring, with an audio guide (almost everything you can read from tabloids in the museum) and some videos (with so-so video and sound quality) about the history of the mines etc. The second half is much more interesting as you descend to the mines itself, where the history is not only told, but also shown in real world examples

    Very nice theme park in vargiani greece in Parnassu's mountain.the only problem i had.is that there were so many families with kids and we couldn't hear anything and generally the place was noisy because of that
