    It was nice and friendly and learned lots of things and we found out information about how gems are made. Activities were curated for children and we spent more than 2 hours here. Kids get to buy precious stones home. Mr Kunming and his staff were very patient with the kids and explained how precious stones and gems are formed.

    Had a wonderful experience at the Gem Museum in Singapore! The staff were very friendly and explained everything clearly, making the tour both fun and educational. Cracking the geode was definitely a highlight — such a unique and memorable experience. Special thanks to the owner, Mr. Tay, for the kind invitation and warm hospitality. Truly a great visit and highly recommended for anyone interested in gems and minerals.
