Step into the heart of South Africa
The Karoo, a vast landscape of endless skies, windmill silhouettes, and quiet horizons. It’s a place where time slows down, where the air smells of dust and rain, and where every sunset feels like a painting.
“Karoo” comes from the Khoisan word Garob, meaning “land of thirst.”
The Karoo once teemed with dinosaurs — fossils are still found in its rocks today.
Its starry nights are among the clearest in the southern hemisphere.
Karoo lamb is world-famous for its unique flavour, thanks to the region’s wild herbs.
Towns like Graaff-Reinet and Prince Albert are full of Cape Dutch architecture and timeless charm.
