YOUR ARRIVAL, CONSIDERED
From your flight to the edge of the wild.
Plan the road journey that comes before your safari. Explore a private transfer from OR Tambo to Phabeni Gate or Paul Kruger Gate, with space to discuss your flight, luggage and onward lodge arrangements.
A little about the journey
A Kruger arrival needs more than a pin in the middle of the park. Your lodge should help confirm the appropriate gate and any onward transport. Select Phabeni or Paul Kruger Gate for the demo estimate, then include your lodge name and handover arrangements in the enquiry. The wildlife and river photographs show the wider destination, not a promised transfer route or included game drive.
- Choose between two clearly named arrival gates.
- Coordinate the transfer with your lodge’s onward pickup.
- Plan the day around your flight and confirmed gate access.

Before you go
Will the transfer take me directly to my lodge?
The demo route ends at your selected gate. Confirm your lodge’s location and onward pickup separately; transport inside the park is not included.
Is a safari or game drive included?
No. This page is for an airport-to-gate transfer enquiry. Game drives, accommodation and park admission are separate.
Which gate should I choose?
Ask your lodge before choosing. The planner supports Phabeni Gate and Paul Kruger Gate; it does not determine which gate is suitable for your accommodation.
Can I arrive at the gate at any time?
Gate opening hours and access requirements must be checked with SANParks and your lodge for your travel date. The route planner does not check these conditions.
