Most people visiting Kapama Game Reserve fly into Johannesburg's O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB) and continue with a connecting flight to Hoedspruit’s Eastgate Airport (HDS). The short airport transfer to the reserve is included in your stay.

Driving to the park from Johannesburg is also possible. Kapama is on the R40 near Hoedspruit west of Kruger National Park. The 450km/280mi drive takes around 4½ hours*.
