If you choose to go to the Apartheid Museum you'll be given a ticket that says either "White/Blanke" or "Non-White/Nie-Blanke" dictating what entrance you can use. It's a pretty confronting start to the tour, but an important one.

Hot showers! Flushing toilets! The most ostriches found anywhere in the world! Oudtshoorn has got it all.

Don't wear white today, because we're going to be sampling some of the world's best wine. Over one million litres of wine are made here each year. You're bound to find a favourite.
