We are unique in the sense that we are one of the few remaining diamond manufacturers left in South Africa. Through our family heritage and the passing down of knowledge, married with a deep passion for the diamond business we have managed to create a truly unique experience where we want to share our passion for this art form. In a world of fake everything and automation we are one of a few offering a truly South African experience and a 100% South African product at incredible value. What makes us truly unique is the team and the people that make this passion a reality every day.

This was one of the best tours I have been on in a long time. The guides were super friendly, warm and very caring. They met me at the Gau train station and made sure they dropped me off too, to ensure my safety. The guide was very knowledgeable his passion and love for the job shone through. I decided to do the tour on my birthday and they made it so special for me. I am so happy that I got to spend my special day with gaining new insights and appreciation for the JHB inner city and having a FUN. Every place we visited, the people were extremely friendly and helpful and were ready to answer my 100 questions.
