he Ann van Dyk Cheetah Centre is a magical place where conservation and education is their motto. It was established in 1971, like a cheetah conservation project and is a short 2-hour scenic drive through the Magaliesburg mountains. Highlights you can look forward to seeing, are the beautiful markings and patterns of the cheetah and wild dog up close. You may even be lucky to get a photo with one of the cheetah.
The center also serves as a platform to educate the public not only on cheetah and wild dog conservation but also on the treatment and respect of domestic animals. Through their NPO (the non-profit organization), CHEETA, people are taught to use domestic animals such as Anatolian dogs to protect livestock from predators and predators from harm.
The center’s outreach is far and wide and their passion for wildlife and conservation is immeasurable. A visit to this center will leave you feeling enriched and inspired.

Oh my gosh. What a fabulous overnight and tour.
We stayed in the tents, Lydia cooked a wonderful meal for us, a beer by the fire- joyous!
They have just revamped the whole lodge, it's right next to the Anne vanDyk park for the cheetah tours, the tent area is fabulous and the lodge is really welcoming.
We'll be back!

The tour organizer changed my departure time 4 times the day before!! I had just landed from a long haul flight and was lucky I had wifi otherwise I would have been left standing with no information. It was very frustrating. Although DeWildt was a nice experience dealing with the vendor was not. The tour promised water and snacks which did not happen. Afterwards they requested I review the experience, and they sent me an email saying “This old lady is trying to review …”. I don’t know who that was meant for but it came to me. This is what they think of their clients.
