Johannesburg Airport Transfer FAQs

How much does an airport transfer from OR Tambo to Sandton cost?

A private airport transfer from OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) to Sandton typically ranges depending on vehicle class, group size and time of day. Wanderer provides upfront, all-inclusive pricing — no surge fees, no tolls added on the day, and no surprises. Contact us with your flight details and destination for a fixed quote.

Do you offer meet-and-greet at OR Tambo International Airport?

Yes. Every Wanderer airport transfer from OR Tambo includes a complimentary meet-and-greet in the international arrivals hall. Your chauffeur waits at the exit with a name board, assists with luggage, and escorts you directly to your private vehicle in the parkade.

How long does the drive from OR Tambo Airport to Sandton take?

The drive from OR Tambo to Sandton is roughly 30 to 45 minutes in normal conditions and 45 to 75 minutes during Johannesburg peak traffic (07:00–09:00 and 16:00–18:30). Our chauffeurs know the best alternative routes and monitor live traffic to keep your transfer on schedule.

Do you track flights for delays or early arrivals?

Yes. We monitor every arriving flight in real time using the flight number you provide at booking. If your flight is delayed, diverted or lands early, we adjust the pickup automatically at no extra cost — your chauffeur will be waiting when you clear customs.

How much does a transfer from Lanseria Airport cost?

Transfers from Lanseria International Airport (HLA) to Sandton, Fourways, Rosebank or the Johannesburg CBD are quoted on a fixed private-vehicle basis. Because Lanseria is closer to northern Johannesburg suburbs than OR Tambo, transfer times are often shorter — usually 25 to 40 minutes to Sandton.

Can you accommodate large groups, extra luggage or child seats?

Yes. Our fleet includes executive sedans, Mercedes-Benz V-Class people carriers and spacious SUVs — ideal for families, corporate groups and travellers with golf bags, safari luggage or business equipment. Child and booster seats are available on request at no extra charge.

Do you provide airport transfers 24 hours a day, including public holidays?

Yes. Wanderer operates airport transfers 24/7, 365 days a year including weekends, public holidays and early morning international departures. Late-night arrivals and 03:00 pickups for early flights are standard for us.

Are your airport transfers safer than a metered taxi or e-hailing service?

Our chauffeurs are professional drivers with cross-border experience, defensive-driving training and background checks. Vehicles are fully licensed, insured for passenger transport, tracked and serviced on schedule. Every journey is private — you never share your vehicle with strangers.

Can you transfer me from OR Tambo directly to Kruger, Sun City or Pretoria?

Yes. In addition to Johannesburg airport transfers we regularly do long-distance private road transfers from OR Tambo to Kruger National Park, Sun City, Pretoria, Magaliesberg and beyond. Ask us for a quote with your pickup time, destination and passenger count.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept EFT, credit card and secure online payment. Corporate accounts and multi-transfer arrangements are available for regular travellers, embassies and businesses in Johannesburg and Sandton.

How far in advance should I book my airport transfer?

We recommend booking at least 24 to 48 hours before your arrival or departure to guarantee vehicle availability, particularly around peak travel periods, school holidays and major conferences. Same-day and last-minute bookings can usually be accommodated subject to availability.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancellations made more than 24 hours before your scheduled pickup are fully refundable. Inside 24 hours a small cancellation fee may apply. If your flight is cancelled or rescheduled, we work with you to move your booking rather than charge a fee.
