Travel in South Africa: bus, train & flights

South Africa is a big country, and long-distance coaches are the backbone of travel without a car: they link Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Bloemfontein and Cape Town, and run along the Garden Route — Mossel Bay, George, Knysna, Plettenberg Bay — to Gqeberha. Distances are long (Johannesburg–Cape Town is a night and a day by coach), so on the longest routes a domestic flight is often the better option. Between Johannesburg, Midrand and Pretoria, the Gautrain is the fastest way. Coaches also cross into neighbouring countries — Lesotho, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique — while Victoria Falls is easier by plane. For every route we show the best option — coach, train or flight — with honest durations and prices, so you can book in a few clicks.
