You can also explore the place with your own vehicle. But before that, are you wondering how you will reach the place?

By Air

Most visitors fly by air to O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB) which is situated near Johannesburg. There are multiple entrances into the Park, so several connecting flights are scheduled from the above airport to different regions. Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (MQP) is the connecting airport that lies almost 40 km from southern Kruger’s Numbi Gate. There are alternative ways to reach the central and northern regions of the National Park if you fly to Hoedspruit or Phalaborwa.

Skukuza Airport is present inside the park, for which you could also plan a scheduled flight. These flights will provide a safe reach to some of the finest safari lodges present in the Kruger National Park.

By Road

If you are targeting to reach by road, the easiest way is to hire a car/cab from Johannesburg and drive to the park. Numbi Gate, the closest one is only 375 kilometers away from the O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB). You will need to drive almost 4 to 5 hours to reach there.
