Ostriches, camels and caves!

by Jenniflower - last update: May 28, 2007

This is what Oudtshoorn is renowned for ~ Ostriches, camels and caves!

But there is a lot more to it than that, and I was surprised that the town was a lot bigger than I had pre-conceived, plus has so much in the way of history, architecture and culture.

If you are driving along the Garden Route, do make the detour up to Oudtshoorn... for a gander with some ostriches, a camel ride, some good food and an enjoyable cave experience!

 this looks a real great place to visit - except for the camels. Their only real use is as ciggarettes.

 This page taught me more about the ostrich than I ever knew before. Interesting stuff.
