Transportation to Pretoria City Center from Airport

Wonderboom Airport

Passengers mostly prefer taxis for transportation to the city center from Wonderboom Airport, which is 15 kilometers north of Pretoria city of the Republic of South Africa. As an alternative to taxis that you can find almost 24 hours a day in front of the airport terminals, you can also take advantage of renting a car or private transfer services at the airport.

Taxi

Taxi is one of the fastest and most convenient means of transport to get to Pretoria city center that is 15 kilometers away from Wonderboom Airport. The fares for airport taxis are not that high to reach the city center since there is not much distance between the airport and the city center. If you don't have local currency with you, you can make your payment easily with euro or dollar as well. If you are going to travel only to somewhere in the city center, you don't need to negotiate with taxi drivers for that. However, if you need to go to the outer parts of the city center, you should first talk with the taxi drivers to get information about average taxi fares and then negotiate, if necessary, for a flat rate.

Yet still, you can rent a car to get to the city center, or you can go on your journey traveling to different parts of the Republic of South Africa with the rental car. Renting a car in the Republic of South Africa is also one of the most comfortable and safe transportation options.
