HIGHGATE OSTRICH SHOW FARM

Our Tours

Make Highgate Ostrich Show Farm the starting point of your Klein Karoo Story!

We have been telling the fascinating story of ostrich farming in Oudtshoorn for over a hundred years. Our tours surprise, inform, and delight visitors from all over the world.

Meet ostriches face to face and learn more about ostrich farming.  Our guests describe the guided tours as family friendly, interesting and informative, and a great experience with ostriches and more ostriches….

Our tours offer interactions with the world’s largest bird, the ostrich, which lays the largest eggs, has the most beautiful feathers and eyes that make you want to fall in love and hug them!

Learn all about the ostriches, feed one by the hand and watch our staff expertly demonstrate the various crafts using the ostrich’s exquisite feathers, eggs and leather.

Pepper Tree Restaurant

Enjoy the freshly prepared local cuisine and soak up to the relaxed atmosphere. Dine al fresco in the shade of a giant Pepper Tree and enjoy great service at Highgate Ostrich Show Farm.

Whether it’s a cup of our special African Arabica coffee, something light for brunch or an expertly prepared no fat, low cholesterol ostrich steak for lunch, you will find a dish to please parents and children alike on our tapas menus.

Visit our Showroom

Catch your breath and visit our shop selling only genuine South African made products, many of which are produced by our skilled staff on the farm. From beautiful decoupage ostrich eggs to exquisite ostrich leather products, fashionable clothing and a vast range of ostrich feather dusters, our Showroom will have something for anybody’s taste.
