The Ann van Dyk Cheetah Centre

The Centre, established in 1971, was known originally as the De Wildt Cheetah Centre, but it has recently been renamed The Ann van Dyk Cheetah Centre as a tribute to the woman who has devoted her life to the survival of the cheetah species.

While the cheetah project was the base from which Ann launched her conservation ethic, it soon widened to include other endangered animal species, such as the African wild dog, brown hyaena, serval, suni antelope, and riverine rabbits. A 3-hour guided tour of the centre is offered daily, and recently a Cheetah Run has also been introduced (Tues, Thurs, Sat am only), where "Ambassador Cheetahs" race to achieve top speeds.

Chimps of Eden

The world renowned Jane Goodall Institute has made this tranquil venue (15km from Nelspruit / Mpumalanga) its South African sanctuary and has committed itself to the rescue and care of chimpanzees in need of refuge. The goal of the Sanctuary is to rescue chimpanzees that have survived hunting ordeals but are still misplaced through the lucrative illegal pet trade to zoos, circus performers and medical research facilities. Visitors have a unique opportunity to see chimpanzees in semi-wild surroundings with normal social interaction and behavioral patterns under group members. Guided tours leave every 2nd hour from 10h00 until 14h00.
