Tips For Using Shuttles to Sun City
Compare Prices
For the majority of travellers, the most important factor when choosing a shuttle services is the price. For that reason, it is always best to compare different companies prices to see which one provides the most value.
Choosing an airport
If you are travelling from within South Africa you will be flying in to either OR Tambo or Lanseria. If the prices for the flights are the same and you want to save money, you must fly to Lanseria. Lanseria is closer to Sun City at a distance of 128 km away, compared to OR Rambo, which is 202 km from Sun City. This means both that the price for the shuttle will be cheaper from Lanseria, and that the trip will also be shorter so less travel time from Lanseria as well.
Consider your group size
With shuttles, you pay for the vehicle, so if you are travelling in a larger group, you can split the cost between a larger number of people, which can make shuttles fairly good value for money. Just keep in mind that minibuses do not have boot space so with a larger group, you will likely have to book a trailer as well, which is usually an extra that costs about R150, which is not bad at all.
