From Johannesburg by Road

It is at least a 5 hour drive. If you would like a quote for a hire car, please do let us know and we will be happy to arrange this for you.

Transfer By Road

We can arrange a road transfer for you if you didn't want to drive yourself - quotes available on request.

Daily Shuttle Service

You can fly daily from Johannesburg International Airport (or the O.R. Tambo as it is now known as) to the Skukuza airstrip in the Kruger National Park. The service is run by Federal Air, and you are met at the airport by one of their professional Guest Relations team, and transferred to FedAir's private first class lounge where you can relax before boarding your flight to the Park.

The flights leave at 9.15 am and then again at 12.40 pm, and takes about 60 minutes. Upon landing in the reserve, you are met and transferred to the lodge.

There is, however, a baggage restriction of 20 kg per person, and you have to have a 'soft' bag (for easy storage in the plane), but you can leave any excess baggage safely at Johannesburg Airport, which you can then pick up when you return.

The return flights back to Johannesburg depart at 10.50 am and 2.15 pm.

Scheduled Flight from Johannesburg

There are daily flights run by South African Airlines from the Johannesburg International Airport to the Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (airport code MQP), where we can arrange for you to be met and transferred to the lodge by road.

The flight takes about an hour, and the journey time then from the airport to the lodge is about a 2 hour drive.

Alternatively, you can hire a car from the Kruger Mpumalanga Airport and drive yourself to the lodge - the advantage of this is that you then have a car to explore the beautiful Lowveld area around the Park after your safari if you have time in your holiday plans.

From Cape Town

There are one daily scheduled flight that flies direct from Cape Town to the Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport, and this takes about 2.5 hours.
