The main airport in the region is the Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport servicing many routes. Transport will need to be arranged from airports to your destination.
The currency in South Africa is the South African Rand.
The Sabi Sands really gets the adrenalin going as it adopts an rule of, any spotting of the Big 5, an allowance to go off road is allowed as apposed to a national park where you must stay to the tracks.
