In the heart of the Klein Karoo on the border of the Garden Route, lies the town Oudtshoorn that is best known for the spectacular Cango Caves that stretches deep into the Swartberg Mountains. Oudtshoorn is also known for its ostrich feather industry and often referred to as the Ostrich Capital of the world. Safari Ostrich Farm is a working ostrich farm and is the home to the beautiful and rare White Ostrich. It is also the first tourist farm in South Africa where the Kenyan Red & Zimbabwe Blue Ostriches as well as the local South African breed can be seen.

Safari Ostrich Farm offers an unforgettable experience with Ostrich Farm Tractor Tours that departs on the hour from 08:00 – 16:00. These tours are created to be educational about these remarkable birds and their fascinating nature. The tours allow visitors the opportunity to come face-to-face with these magnificent and ancient birds. Visitors will be able to feed the ostriches, test the strength of the eggs by holding or standing on them, and visit the incubator during breeding season and witness chicks hatching. There are two restaurants on the farm that serves delicious homemade and unique dishes. Be sure to try the healthy Ostrich Fillet as part as a 3-course set menu lunch or enjoy a selection of light meals from the Safari Café.
