Explore the numerous game reserves in Gauteng, and game spot wildlife such as Cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus).

Gauteng is South Africa's smallest, richest, most urbanised and most frenetic province. 

Gauteng is known more for its business opportunities than for its tourism offerings. Although its scenic beauty does not rival that of Mpumalanga or the Western Cape, its draw cards are no less significant, even though they centre around heritage and urban culture.
