The airports serving Johannesburg

O. R. Tambo International Airport (JNB) is in Kempton Park about 25 km east of Sandton and 22 km from the Johannesburg city centre, 30 to 45 minutes by car; Rosebank is 35 to 45 minutes and Pretoria 45 minutes to an hour on the R21, and the Gautrain reaches Sandton in about 15 minutes.

Lanseria International Airport (HLA) is a smaller airport north-west of Johannesburg, about 35 km from Sandton and 40 to 50 minutes by car on the R512 and N14, with domestic flights from Cape Town and Durban; it has no rail link, so a private car is the practical way into the city.

Routes we run in Johannesburg

Private transfer routes are listed for Johannesburg, from O. R. Tambo International Airport and Lanseria International Airport: destinations include Sandton, Sandton, Johannesburg City Centre, Rosebank and Pretoria. Each route has its own page with the distance, the drive time, the vehicles and the booking form; if your hotel is not named, book the nearest and tell the desk the exact address - the price is per vehicle and rarely changes for a nearby address.

The Gautrain fast rail links O. R. Tambo with Sandton, Rosebank and Pretoria in 15 to 35 minutes, and ride-hailing cars are common, but there is no rail from Lanseria and most hotels, museums and day-trip sights are spread across a wide city. A private car with a driver who meets you in arrivals is the recommended way to arrive and the easiest way to see Soweto, the Cradle of Humankind and Pretoria.

Vehicles

Sedan for one to three passengers, minivan or GMC for up to seven, Sprinter for eight to thirteen; Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with proper luggage space. Child seats on request at no extra charge. The desk recommends the size once it knows how many of you there are and how many bags.

How the transfer works

Every transfer is private - no sharing, no extra stops unless you ask - and priced for the vehicle, so a family of five pays one figure. Flights are tracked against the real arrival time; late-night and early-morning pickups run as normal; and the same desk arranges the return, a day trip or an intercity transfer later in the stay.

Every booking is confirmed by a real person on our WhatsApp desk, in Arabic or English, with the price written down before anything is paid.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.

How much does a transfer from the airport to Johannesburg cost?

Prices are fixed per vehicle and shown on each route page and in its booking form; the figure you see is the figure you pay, confirmed on WhatsApp before you travel. A family or group pays for the vehicle, not per person.

Where do I meet the driver at the airport?

It varies by airport and terminal: a set meeting point inside arrivals, a specific exit, or the driver with a name board just after customs. Your WhatsApp confirmation gives the exact place, the driver's name and a phone number.

What if my flight is delayed?

Nothing to do - every transfer is flight-tracked, the pickup moves with the real landing time, and waiting time is included.

Is the transfer private or shared?

Private. The vehicle carries your party only, from the arrivals door to your address, with no other passengers.

Which vehicle should I choose?

Sedan for up to three with normal luggage, minivan or GMC for up to seven, Sprinter for up to thirteen. If unsure, tell the desk the number of passengers and bags and it recommends one before you pay.

Do you provide child seats?

Yes - say the ages when you book and the driver brings the right seats or boosters at no extra charge.

Is there a bus, train or metro from the airport to Johannesburg?

The Gautrain fast rail links O. R. Tambo with Sandton, Rosebank and Pretoria in 15 to 35 minutes, and ride-hailing cars are common, but there is no rail from Lanseria and most hotels, museums and day-trip sights are spread across a wide city. A private car with a driver who meets you in arrivals is the recommended way to arrive and the easiest way to see Soweto, the Cradle of Humankind and Pretoria. For anyone with luggage, a family or a late flight, the private car is the simpler choice.

Can I book the return to the airport too?

Yes. Send the departure flight and the hotel; the driver collects you with a comfortable margin, and both directions sit on one confirmation.

Do you run transfers to other cities from Johannesburg?

Yes - intercity transfers by private car or van are booked the same way; tell the desk the destination and it quotes a fixed price for the whole vehicle.

Which language does the driver speak?

It depends on the country, the city and the time of the transfer, so we do not promise a particular language. Tell us your preference and we do our best; the WhatsApp desk always works in Arabic and English.

How and when do I pay?

After the written confirmation, never before. The desk explains the payment options on WhatsApp once the price, the vehicle and the meeting point are confirmed.

Can I change or cancel?

Yes, in the same WhatsApp conversation. The terms depend on how close to the pickup the change comes, and the desk states them before any payment.
