I have not been to Geovor tin mine only Levant! I would say that I thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour at Levant, as it was very informative and delivered in a friendly manner. I suggest you read reviews for both attractions to gain an overall view of experiences!
If you join a guided tour you will can down the shaft to the “Man Engine Tunnel” where 31 miners lost their lives. It’s also the only place where there’s a beam engine in steam. Well worth a visit.
My Great Grandfather and Grandfather were tin miners born in Illogan.Are there lists of miners saying which mines they worked in? There names were Henry Burrell and William Henry Burrell. I am Judith Kenworthy nee Burrell
