How to get to Mashatu Game Reserve?

Mashatu is unusual, in that it is actually accessed via Johannesburg in South Africa. There are various ways to get there:

• Self-drive to Pont Drift border post (where you can securely park the car) and then continue over the river with an onward transfer to the lodges. We suggest you break the journey en route in the Waterberg.
• Road transfer either from Johannesburg (5 hours) or Polokwane (2+ hours.)
• Seat in charter flight from Johannesburg (but please note that this is expensive!)
