Dear surfdive,

Thank you very much for your question. It is really up to you, you are welcome to fly into Hoedspruit if you would prefer. For some people it is a bit too expensive so self-driving is the reasonable option. For other people they prefer to fly in and then we collect them from the airport.

The drive is about 5.30 hours, it is a beautiful scenic drive. It really depends on what you would prefer.

If you are landing in SA and it has been a long flight then you may not fancy driving.

I hope this helps and please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any other questions.
