Featured review

Eliana_S

We used this service several times while on this holiday and we were happy to have Jakes as our driver. From the first transfer until the last, he was super helpful, punctual and reliable. He was very friendly and gave us great suggestions for our stay. We were glad he was the person taking care of us the entire time for our airport transfer needs and would have used him for local tours if we hadn't set something before hand. Would definitely recommend him and his company Amatungulu Tours, Shuttle & Safari -Airport Transfer and ask for Jakes!

Fabulous airport transfer

Peter_P, Sep 2025

Jakes communicated with me prior to landing to get flight numbers so he could track any delays. He contacted me right after I picked up my bags. Found me immediately as I left the exit. Jakes gave me lots of history about South Africa during the drive and helpful advice about traveling safely here. Likewise he had lots of advice on things to do while in town. Great driver. Vehicle was spotless. But there was lots of value added to this transfer.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for the great review, its is always wonderful to inform people more about my country. All the best, Jakes.

Victoria Falls Adventure

Patricia_E, Sep 2024

Stephen met us in the arrivals section at Tambo Airport. We chose a private shuttle into Houghton as 20 hours from airport to airport is enough navigation for me. He is very welcoming, giving us a nice commentary of Johannesburg. He found a take away dinner place as our lodging is in a residential area and we were starving & tired. Overall very pleased with the service and highly recommend him for anyone looking into transportation around town or the airport.

Response from Host, Sep 2024

It was great to assist you. Our company will do what we can to help travelers, thank you for the review.

👏🏻💯‼️

Carissa_T, Sep 2024

Jakes is tall so easy to spot in a crowd, very friendly & personable. He arrived timely with a well appointed vehicle that carried all 4 of us and our multitude of luggage. He was very knowledgeable about what/where to go on our short time in the city and shared willingly about the history of the city & more👏🏻💯‼️😊

Our driver was very nice....

Kevin_H, May 2023

Our driver was very nice. He even tipped the airport rep who hounded us for a tip after helping us locate our driver. He wasn't where we thought he would be but once found, he was the most pleasant and nicest.

More than an Airport Transfer

Yasmina_N, Jun 2022

Jakes was waiting for me at the airport. International travel will take it out of you. I was so happy to see a smiling face. He took me to the hotel. But he did more than that. I got a brief history of Johannesburg while we were on our way. The only disappointment is that we did not have more time to take a more extensive tour with Jakes. Thanks.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

It was my pleasure, thank you for the booking and hope to assist again soon. Best regards.

Great service
