About Johannesburg
Johannesburg is where most South Africa safaris start. O.R. Tambo International Airport has direct flights from Europe and the United States, and from here it is a short connecting flight, or a scenic drive of five to six hours, to the Kruger and the private reserves of Sabi Sands and Timbavati. Many of our Kruger itineraries begin and end in Johannesburg, often with a night on arrival. If you have a spare day, the Apartheid Museum and Soweto give real context to the country you are about to travel through.
