De Wildt Cheetah Centre

What a wonderful experience! The cheetahs are amazing but make sure you allow time to see all of the animals. Nicole was a brilliant guide and shared her passion for animal welfare and conservation in a very positive way.

What an exhilarating and educational experience! The staff is very knowledgeable and passionate about the animals. We learned so much about cheetahs, wild dogs, hyenas, and conservation initiatives during the tour. Highly recommended.

This was an absolute amazing experience! You have to put this on your bucketlist! Best experience I had. Samuel was our tour guide and he aced it! He made jokes, kept you interested and never hurried you. He's information was spot on! We went for the cheetah run and guided tour for R480 per person. 3 cheetahs do the run so you have enough time to take the correct and best video. They dont only have cheetahs, there are so much more. During the guided tour we drove on an open vehicle and they fed the wild dogs, hyena and cheetahs. They have vultures and also smaller animals. The animals are in good condition! Perfect for a couple or for the whole family! Best day I had in a long time! Thanks you Cheetah Center.

We had an amazing day here. What a beautiful initiative , to help endangered species. Our guide Jason was awesome. We learnt so much. Prices were really affordable. This is a none profit organisation, so they rely heavily on sponsorships and tours. The animals are all well taken care of and the staff were well trained and kind towards them. My family and I had so much fun. I will definitely return. The Ann van Dyk Cheetah Centre – De Wildt Originally the De Wildt Cheetah Research Centre was the first establishment in the world to breed captive cheetahs on a sustainable basis and was the firstCites approved cheetah breeding facility in the world. The aim of the Centre is to maintain a viable genetic pool of not only the cheetah but also the African wild dog second most endangered carnivore in Africa, for release back into their natural habitat as and when space becomes available.

What a wonderful experience. Everything about the place is so amazing. Nikki at the front desk is absolute sunshine, always a warm smile, ready to answer all your questions. Our guide was a young lady, Nicole and her assistant was a non English speaking person, Munyai. But even with no communication, his bright smile and eagerness to show us around,made our day. Nicole is very good at her job and am asset to the centre. She is funny and knowledgeable. She is skilled with the animals and it's amazing to see the wild have a rapport with the guides. There's a large variety of animals and the tour gives you time to observe them and click great pictures. They take you within the wild dog and cheetah enclosures and it is an out of the world experience. Worth every penny and your time.

Wonderful place for kids and adults. We enjoyed the tour with Nicole and she explained interesting facts about all the animals. Walk tour took 1 hour and was about 1km of slow walking.Would definitely recommend if you are in the area. Thank you for the good work you are doing!Wait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
