Complementary Shuttle Service from Johannesburg (JHB) to Hoedspruit (HDS)
Umlani Safaris is running a special offer with a local transfer company whereby if you book a 3 night or one week stay at Umlani on our special rate stated above we will throw in a return transfer from Johannesburg to Umlani and back again for free!
Daily return road shuttle service – both directions
Operating 364 days per year – No shuttles will operate on 25th December
Please note that this is a SHUTTLE service and NOT a PRIVATE transfer service. You will be sharing the transfer with other passengers. Pick up and drop off times are fixed and cannot be arranged to suit your arrangements. This is not a scenic route and only a couple of brief drink and toilet stops will be along the way. Drop off and pick up points are not at Umlani Bushcamp itself and an additional transfer to/from the drop off points will be organised by Umlani.
