    Getting TO/AROUND: All cars can be hired at O. R. Tambo International Airport (formerly known as Johannesburg International Airport. Avis being the biggest rental company.

    The journey to Sun city takes approx 2hours and is very easy and well sign posted. We had no problems along the way. The general rule is to keep your windows closed at any major junction or stop signs.

    We were generally surprised to find the journey to be so easy without any hiccups.

    Getting out of the airport onto the freeway again was easy.

    Getting TO/AROUND: You do not need a car once you have arrived at Sun City. There is a small shuttle bus which operates around the whole resort and stops at each hotel along its circular route. Buses leave daily and regularly from the Welcome Centre. The route also includes the Vacation Club.

    Getting TO/AROUND: The drive to the national park is very easy and takes approx 5 minutes from the Welcome Centre. Pick-up a map of the park from the Welcome Centre before departing for your safari. There is an entrance fee at the gates into the park. Please take note of the closing time of the Park before starting your journey.
