What a cool idea to extract money from (female) tourists nicely done and well managed place kids loved the museum and the workshop we were watching jewelers in action and learned about emeralds empanada place next to the museum on the corner is very convenient when shopping goes longer than anticipated

Very nice museum and our guide Luis did an excellent job explaining the mining process and exhibits. The museum has a tunnel that you can go through to experience the cramped nature that the miners go through to deliver the emeralds. The exhibits go through Colombia's history of emeralds and the Spanish invaders. Other exhibits have emeralds from around the world. The tour ends in the jewelry shop. I'm not a jewelry person so won't comment on that.

The museum is interesting and I learned a lot about emeralds. It's worth a half hour or more. I would have gladly spent more time on each exhibit but our guide kept moving us fairly fast. She was pleasant, and did not apply any sales pressure when she showed us the goods for sale. We will consider returning to take the jewelry making course for $90 each; this uses raw uncut emeralds.

Nice place to learn about emerald mining. It is owned by a jewelry store, so there is a store to buy emeralds if you want to. The place is well kept and prices are ok.

Excelente lugar. Atención de primera por parte de la señorita Katherine Jiménez y de todo el personal. Todo el recorrido es impresionante, tanto así que enamora cada parte del proceso. Tuve la suerte de conocer dos de los Fundadores, el Sr. Alfredo Díaz y Ricardo Díaz, calidad humana es lo que les sobra. Felicitaciones y gracias por todo.
