Tajo Ostrich not only farms several thousand ostrich but also provides a selection of day tour and educational packages. According to their website this is like a visit to a modern day Jurassic Park. You can take a ride on the specially designed passenger trailer and learn about the process of breeding, from eggs to hatching to fully grown adult bird. You will see chicks hatching and incubating, try to stand on an egg, and try your hand at feeding full grown ostriches!
As well as Farm Tours, there is also a Farm Shop selling produce.
You are also able do some free birdwatching from the roadside as you pass by, where the ostrich flock will probably rush over to watch you too!
