Get your bags, walk out of Johannesburg Airport (HLA-Lanseria), and collect your rental car. Which one you slide into depends on where you want to go. If you’ll be mostly driving in downtown Diepsloot, around 5 miles from the terminal, opt for something small. A compact car with good maneuverability will be ideal for those busy streets. But with loads of things to see, like the picturesque desert landscapes of the surrounding region, you’ll probably be racking up those miles. A bigger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make lengthier road trips more comfortable.
