Observe meerkats going about their daily activity during this unique wildlife encounter in Oudtshoorn. It’s an animal experience you’ll never forget!
On the morning of the 2-3-hour tour, your guides will lead you to the meerkat burrows, where you’ll enjoy a hot cup of coffee to start the day. As the sun rises, you’ll then take your seats on the lightweight aluminium chairs provided. The meerkats are wild but habituated to humans, so provided you sit very quietly, they’ll emerge from their burrows and go about their daily routine undisturbed. Though it’s not possible to feed or handle them, you can watch and take photos as they forage and frolic in the morning sunshine. Meanwhile, your guides will talk a bit about their unique behaviours and complex social structure, helping you make sense of all the activity taking place in front of you. Trust us, you could happily watch these little creatures all day!
The Sunrise Wild Meerkat Tour in Oudtshoorn offers a fascinating insight into the lives of these remarkable animals, and it would make a unique experience gift for anyone interested in wildlife. Surprise them with an Experience Days gift certificate today!
