Dairy Farming
ON HOLD DUE TO FMD
Currently there is a rather severe outbreak of FMD and all 9 provinces are affected. Vaccination as a first step, has been scheduled in the most affective regions, with the plan to vaccinate the whole South African herd by December 2026. In most areas, access to especially dairy farms is currently not allowed, but some are still “open”. We will post the latest information here, as and when we receive it.
South Africa is a top dairy producer in the world. Most of the dairies are found in Kwa-Zulu Natal, along the Garden Route of the Western and Southern Cape, and of course in the Western Cape itself. This tour starts in the Midlands of KZN, then works its way down to the Garden Route and finally ends in the Western Cape. Also included, is a 2-night luxury wildlife safari at the Nambiti Hills Private Game Reserve.
