In Chrissiesmeer we have local wildflower guides (Nature lovers, and persons with a very good knowledge of the wild flowers in the district).
They are able to take guests on a wildflower walk and/or drive any time of the year during the flower season. They know where there are very special flowers all over the area and are able to take you there with you own car.
