Getting from Johannesburg's airport to the city center

Fastest option: Gautrain rapid rail. Budget travelers often choose airport shuttle buses or metered taxis.

Johannesburg is served by O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB), located 24 km east of the city center. As Africa's busiest airport, it offers several airport transfers to city center destinations including the Gautrain rapid rail service, metered taxis, ride-hailing apps, shuttle buses, and private transfers. The Gautrain provides the fastest and most reliable connection to Sandton and central Johannesburg, while road-based options offer flexibility for travelers with heavy luggage or destinations not on the rail network. Journey times by road vary significantly depending on traffic conditions, particularly during peak hours.
