The animals are free-roaming so you literally walk through their home. This is a guided tour and is fascinating, easy, and fun for all ages. You will probably never get this close to these kinds of animals in your life...a must do!

This is located across from the Knysna Elephant Park so plan to do both! This is a wonderful bird rescue and they even have "flight displays" where rescues show you what they can do. These birds are loved and given homes because they cannot be released. They also do rehab birds to be released into the wild where they can, it's a great place to visit, you'll leave with a new respect for these winged creatures.

This is a local favorite and a beautiful place. Even those not crazy about snakes, will come away with a new respect for these misunderstood creatures. There are also other reptiles, some of which you can touch, all within a park like setting...beautiful. It's located close to the wineries so make a day out of it!

Robberg Nature Reserve is just a few minutes drive from Bird Villa. There are picnic tables so even for the "non-hikers" there is a reason to go. Many of the longer trails are un-even and can be rocky/slippery so caution if you're planning a hike. This is a BIG draw to people and is worth a visit....for a several hour hike or even just a short stroll!

Neighborhoods
The airport road (now paved) has a nice Farm Stall for fresh veggies, Ouland Royale which is a quaint place to eat and has a unique shop and if you keep your eyes open-there are a male and female ostrich and 2 donkeys on one of the properties. This is a popular road to bypass the N2, especially when coming to stay at Bird Villa or to hike around Robberg!

SUMMER Packing
No need to overpack for Summer. Remember that Summer here is November-December-January so that's when it's HOT! We provide you with beach bags, beach chairs, games, towels, etc so no need for those bulky items.

Những gì cần đóng gói
FALL/WINTER Packing
Fall & Winter can get quite chilly so be prepared! Layering is the way to go as the day can start out chilly and end up hot in the sun. Make sure you pack great layering pieces, a good jacket and even a beanie if you're planning on doing outdoor activities as that will keep you comfortably warm. Bring a backpack/day pack so you have a place to shed those layers if you need to! Any questions, just ask, that's what we're here for!
