Reported entrance fees for the Big Hole in Kimberley range from about R90 to R140 per adult, and we could not confirm a current figure against the operator’s own rate card. The official site did not return a readable price page when we checked.
The Big Hole is the historic open diamond mine and adjoining Kimberley Mine Museum in the Northern Cape.
What Is Reported
| Category | Reported figure | Vintage |
|---|---|---|
| Adult | R90 to R140 | Visitor reports, 2023 onward |
| Adult | R100 | Older listing, 2019 or earlier |
| Child 4–12 | R60 | Older listing, 2019 or earlier |
Why We Are Not Picking a Number
The spread between R90 and R140 is too wide to call, and the only structured adult-and-child breakdown we found dates from 2019 or earlier — old enough that quoting it would likely mislead you at the ticket desk. A stale price presented confidently is worse than no price.
What the Ticket Normally Covers
Admission to the site typically includes the viewing platform over the hole, the mine museum and its reconstructed old-town street, and the underground and film experiences. Confirm what is bundled when you buy, since these have been sold as combined and separate products at different times.
How to Confirm
Check thebighole.co.za directly or contact the site before travelling, particularly if you are driving a long way for it.
Price Source and Last-Checked Date
These figures come from secondary sources, not an operator-published rate card. The operator’s own site did not return a readable rate page when checked, and available third-party figures disagree with each other and are of uncertain vintage.
Last checked: 6 September 2026. Treat them as indicative and confirm at the point of purchase.
