Generations of wine farmers have cultivated fine vineyards on the banks of the Olifants River and its tributaries. As early as the eighteenth century, travellers bound for the interior picked up barrels of brandy here as part of their provisions. In the opulent era of the ostrich boom in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the wines of Oudtshoorn were welcome guests at any dinner table. They were counted an extension of the hosts hospitality. Today that tradition is carried on by many fine restaurants in town which offer local wines with pride. Kango Wines has been an integral part of this proud heritage.

Oudtshoorn offers a rare mix of scenic beauty, cultural significance and traditional hospitality. The area was originally inhabited by four tribes of

Bushmen. European settlers followed in the 1750s and started to cultivate the soil in the fertile valleys. Oudsthoorn is rich in cultural diversity, as reflected by the variety of stage productions and art exhibits on offer at the Klein Karoo National Arts Festival every year. This heritage will live on in Kango Wines. Savour it on its own or with the excellent local cuisine.

Ignore the grumpy owner (who is capable of faking a friendly smile now and again) and rather mix with the adventurous young guests.
The style is like spotting your professor in his t-shirt. You will encounter professionalism where it matters, but without losing the free flowing gentleness of a relaxed stay. Be warned, we are unashamedly snobbish. We wont ask you for a lot of money but will require a lot of attitude, values and intellect!
At Outeniqua Backpackers we offer daytrips to the Cango Caves, ostrich farms and all other gems of the Klein Karoo. You are free to make up your own itinerary for the day. Dawie, the owner, will drive you around in safety and air-conditioned comfort.

Super Tube, Reptile and Bird Park – George

Victoria heights reptile park

Victoria heights bird park

Victoria heights

I recently had the opportunity to visit the Victoria Heights Reptile and Bird Park just outside of George. This is not just any Reptile and Bird Park. I found the large variety of reptiles and birds astonishing!

Halfway through the Bird Park,  I realized just how uninformed I am where it comes to the bird species! Can there really be so many?  Imagine more than 50 species of doves…  A variety of poultry – The owner of the Park, Hennie Haasbroek, has been breeding Show Poultry for the past 32 years. A number of South African Champions were bred by him and many of these are also residents of the Bird Park – and I thought that chicken are just there to lay eggs.
Water birds  I thought only feature in Children’s books and fairytales. Sparrows, Parrots, even Loeries and exotic bird species!

At first I was exited and bit frightened by the thought of visiting a reptile park. Can you blame me? Soon I was quite at ease walking around in the park with Nick Kolberg, who told me more about these animals. All the reptiles are in safe enclosures resembling their natural habitat.

For me it was the first time that I saw many of these reptiles in real life! Puff Adders, Rattle Snakes, Moll Snakes, Leguans and even a Bull Frog! For the sake of taking photographs for their website I was even taken into one of the Anaconda enclosures… some of these more that 5 meter in length!!!

But this is not all – the Reptile Park is also home to Piet the talking Crow, a number of monkeys and other farm animals including a Swiss Milk Goat!  Oh and I almost forgot about the baby monkey! He hides on his daddy’s back – I have included a photograph of the two!

Well, what an interesting morning! Not only did I have great fun and the opportunity to see birds and reptiles that I have heard and read about, in real life. I also learned a great deal about these species!  The rates for tours of the Reptile Park and Bird Park are very reasonable – now any one can afford this amazing experience!

The Victoria Heights Reptile and Bird Park  also features a 8,5 meters high  Super Tube -one of the highest in South Africa.  The Super Tube and picnic area is perfect for those hot days! Picnic tables and umbrellas are placed around the Super Tube.

The Victoria Heights Reptile and Bird Park is located just outside of George on route to Victoria Bay. Here you will be taken on a very interesting tour that is both informative and educational.

Victoria Heights Reptile Park:

The Reptile Park houses a large variety of reptiles in their natural habitats.
Amongst the reptile there are Anacondas of more than 5 meters long, Cobras, Rattle Snakes, a Bullfrog, “Boomslange” and leguans. To much delight of young and old the Reptile Park is also home to a talking crow, small birds, monkeys and farm animals like goats and rabbits and more!

Victoria Heights Bird Park:

Exotic bird species, Loeries, more than 50 species of doves, and a variety of Swans, Geese, Ducks, Sparrows and many more species can be seen.
