ACCOMMODATION | SCHOEMANSHOEK | OUDTSHOORN | ROUTE 62 | SOUTH AFRICA

EXCLUSIVE

Hosted by the family owned De Opstal Country Lodge Albertus & Matilda de Bod, owners of De Opstal Country Lodge, would like to invite you to an exclusive tour to one of the world’s largest ostrich enterprises, owned by Piet Schoeman, Matilda’s brother.

AUTHENTIC

The emphasis is an animal friendly (no riding or sitting on ostriches), authentic farm in operation experience and NOT the commercial show farm experience.

PERSONAL

  • breeding birds in the field and their nests
  • chick rearing operations
  • feeding
  • beautiful unspoilt Little Karoo vegetation
  • the hatchery (very, very interesting)
  • flock movement
  • dosing & plucking
  • authentic ostrich curio shop
