The Rock Shop, Souris Traveller Reviews - Tripadvisor
WEBJun 7, 2018 · A gem of its own. Highly recommended! My 22 year old son and I enjoyed this store, but we found the best part was paying to visit the agate gravel pit and hunt for our own samples. The owner/guide was very friendly and helpful. We had a great time finding our own treasures.
