One of the most popular things about Sun City is its accessibility. The resort is located about 2 hours North West of Johannesburg Airport. Affordable scheduled and private road transfers can be arranged to pick you up from Johannesburg Airport or a hotel of your choice in Johannesburg or Sandton. Scheduled flights from Johannesburg to Sun City have ceased operation (as the road transfer is so simple). There are charter flights to Sun City, but you better check with your consultant to get more information on this.
Getting to Madikwe
Madikwe is only a 3.5 hour drive from Johannesburg Airport and therefore makes an ideal self drive destination. The last section is on dirt track road and we therefore advise that guests do not arrive after dark for their own personal safety. Federal Air operate an affordable daily scheduled charter between Johannesburg International Airport and Madikwe Game Reserve, provided that one full leg of this trip is flown between Johannesburg Airport and Madikwe the second leg of your trip can be diverted via Sun City . This therefore facilitates combining time at Madikwe Game Reserve with time at Sun City. Major roadworks between Sun City and Madikwe are improving the road and in future making this a vary viable self drive option as well.
Daily flights to Gabarone from Cape Town
Situated on the border between South Africa and Botswana Madikwe Game Reserve is very close to Gabarone.

Road transfers from Gabarone and Madikwe Game Reserve take about 45 minutes ensuring your arrival at the lodge of your choice by lunchtime. Just dont forget your passport several travellers have been known to forget that you need a passport to visit Botswana !
