As we got out into where the real Karoo starts we were greeted with the most amazing display of colour. Colour in the form of endless small yellow and purple flowers for miles and miles. This had been the result of the most rain this part of the dessert had had for something like 30 years.
One farmer told us they had seen flowers on bushes that they didn't even know had flowers. In all their farming career they had never seen anything like it. So we timed it perfectly, only in Spring and only once in many decades. it was incredible, check out the pictures and there is more to come.
This is the daily blog from Africa4Adventure.com. A short series on the Karoo Motorbike tour we took on during September 2011.
More South and
Southern African motor cycle tours on our list of tour route summaries are available, where we explore these sorts of
motorcycle tour routes. Just choose one of our
events and
reserve yourself a place on one of the future motorcycle adventure safari events.
