2010 Fifa Soccer World Cup

With the 2010 soccer around the corner, many visitors to South Africa will be looking for places to visit that they can enjoy the African bush and wildlife.  The Ann van Dyk Cheetah Centre is an ideal venue for those who are unable to travel to the reserves where many of these animals are found.  On days when the 2010 soccer is not being played, visit us and enjoy a three hour guided tour on an open game viewing vehicle, where you will get to see cheetah, African wild dog, caracal, African wild cat, vultures and various antelope species.  Please contact the Centre for more information about the tours, cheetah run and other activities offered.

School Tours

A one and a half hour walking tour is given to learners who visit the Centre.  Learners have the opportunity of seeing cheetah, African wild dog and many of the other species at the Centre up close.  They are able to learn about and see first hand many of the adaptations that certain species of wildlife have in order to survive in the wild.  The Education Centre boasts a predator 'preyground' (playground), this has a number of activities which learners can take part in to understand the cycles in nature.

Outreach Programme

The Education team at the Centre will visit schools and various institutions in order to educate and create awareness about the cheetah and nature conservation in general.  After a power point presentation, an ambassador cheetah is brought into the classroom and learners have the opportunity to observe a cheetah at close quarters.  Our ambassador cheetah Byron meets on average between 10 and 15 000 learners per annum.
