Have you seen ostriches race?
Ostrich racing is a sport similar to horse riding. It's considered more difficult to ride an ostrich than a horse.
While in the Klein Karoo (Little Karoo) semi-desert area in South Africa, don't miss the chance to watch ostrich racing. The region is the biggest breeding ground for ostriches in the world.

The largest town in the Klein Karoo - Oudtshoorn - is the Ostrich Capital of the World. Hence, an ostrich farm visit is a must-do activity, if you happen to be in the area.
A special treatment for the visitors is a ride on an ostrich's back. It's extremely difficult to master it, so you better leave the ostrich racing to the professionals :-)
We visited Highgate Ostrich Show Farm in February 2017 during our visit to South Africa and the Klein Karoo. The ostrich racing was the highlight of the tour :-)
