Kruger Park fly-in safaris are the perfect way to get to the game reserve if you don’t have your own car or simply want to arrive in style.
On a fly-in safari to Kruger National Park, book your flight and arrange for a shuttle service from your hotel to meet you at your destination airport.
If your accommodation doesn’t offer a shuttle service, there is a general shuttle bus which travels from Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport to the park.
Don’t have your own car? If you’re an overseas visitor planning a trip to South Africa or simply don’t want to make the driving journey to Kruger National Park, you can opt for a fly-in safari.
Private Connections, a private shuttle bus company, offers transfer services from Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport near Nelspruit to Kruger National Park. The trip takes about 1.5 hours. We’ve never used this shuttle service, so we don’t know if it’s good, bad or indifferent!
Want to arrive in style for your luxury Kruger safari? Let someone else do the driving while you sit back and enjoy the scenery. You’re on holiday and you want to relax, right?
