Your reason for choosing a hotel will vary according to your needs. If it’s business, you might have to put travel logistics at the top of your list. If it’s pleasure, you’ll have more scope. Either way, the geography of an area might not reward you with it’s full potential if the facilities in your hotel don’t match your needs. At African Sky, we strive to offer a comprehensive range of facilities to make your stay with us fulfilling - even if you don’t go out at all.
There are some 150,000 ostriches in the word, and 120,000 of them live around Oudtshoorn, a dusty town on the edge of the Little Karoo plain. They wander the stony farms, scratching a minimal diet from the harsh desert scrub. Be sure to visit a farm (at some, you can even ride an ostrich!), then head to the C. P. Nel Museum to learn about the history of the trade, which flourished in the days when ostrich feathers were a popular accessory. Plumes, once de rigueur for ladies evening wear, are still sent all over the world.
