There are lots of hotels with shuttles at JNB Airport and 2 hotels are walkable. The intercontinental $$$$ and the City hotel $$. We stayed at the Protea(Marriott brand) and took their shuttle. Very safe. I think that Thula will arrange transport for you from Durban. Just ask. Also look at flying into Richards Bay (RCB). Not as many flights per day but closer unless you want time in Durban. We did a 1/2 day city tour and full day Sani Pass tour but without those fly to Richards Bay.
We have just booked for next August (2024) and I'm making flight arrangements, etc. One question at this point - should I plan on gratuities for the staff at the end of the trip? We are doing the all inclusive Best of Both Worlds. I see from the reviews good advice on packing, etc. and will be reading all your comments in the months ahead to be all prepared. Thanks, everyone!

Hi Barbara, yes at the end of the trip will be perfect for the gratuities. Thank you so much and see you then ! Francoise
We are starting to plan a visit in 2024 from Washington DC. 2 questions: have US travelers any good tips for flights? Do you go to London or someplace first to break up the trip? Secondly, when is the best time to go? I see pros and cons for going in South African winter versus summer.

We flew on Delta from ATL to JNB, 15 hours 50 min. Spent the night in Johannesburg (hotel with airport shuttle recommended by Thula Thula) with a 9:00 am continuing flight to Durban where Thula Thula had a driver waiting. If you don't want to do almost 16 hours, going to London for a couple of days might be a good option, Siya, the head game ranger told us he thought end of April beginning of May was his favorite time. We preferred the very end of winter to avoid mosquitoes, flys and snakes.
