For those interested in a mine tour, Central Deborah mine is the place to be where three types of tours are offered. Do the surface tour and observe mine workings. Bear in mind that a little reconfiguration has been carried out for tourists’ benefit. Alternatively, climb the poppet head to the overhead link and go for the battery crusher. The third kind of tour is the underground one where one can see demonstrations of sorts and drilling rigs. Of course, the last kind of tour is inclusive of the first two (surface tour and gold panning) and by itself consumes half an hour. Visitors will go down a ladder and later be treated to a lunch of pasties at the back of the main level of the mine.

Places to catch a snack or a meal are the Malayan Orchid, Bull St, Clogs, GPO, The Dispensary, Guards Room @ Wine Bank, Tyohoon, Whirakee and Wild Mint.
