FARM TOURS
The tour starts at 09:00 at De Denne and the guests are welcomed by our tour guide. This tour is interesting as well as educational as the history of the ostrich, feeding, breeding and different species are discussed and shown to guests. You will be able to see and experience the ostrich in the farm environment. The incubator room is the ultimate as the hatching chicks are the most adorable little things and exciting moments of seeing them hatch is something you will remember for ever.
