Getting from Pretoria to Other World Cup Cities

Visitors who come to Pretoria for the World Cup could stay in Johannesburg (and vice versa) as the two cities are just 35 miles or so from one another. From either, if you are planning to check out some of the other host cities while on your trip, you’ll need to figure out how to get from place to place in a way that fits into your budget and your time frame. And luckily you’ll have no shortage of options as Johannesburg is a major hub for transport – both by air and by land – in South Africa.

The best way to get travel to other places from Pretoria is to  head to Johannesburg from Pretoria and then connect from there to the other World Cup cites.
