- Amanda81755Townsville, Australia24 contributionsWe visited Museo delle Miniere di Capoliveri and also took the Safari in Miniera tour for only 20 euros each. The tour included time at the museum before we jumped into the ex military Jeep for a joy ride around the steep paths in the mountains. It was breath taking and our guide Aldo explained the history, minerals, mining methods and took us prospecting. Fantastic couple of hours! The drive in is a slow 30km per hour on a winding coastal road with beautiful views so allow time for this.Written 2 June 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
