Travelling on the new Gautrain is indeed an experience, especially for locals. Every passenger requires a Gold card which gives you access to the barriers as well as exit from the Parkade. The carriage is attractive and the seats are comfortable, the journey itself is smooth, offering some attractive views of the city. Once the journey comes to an end, at an average of 15 minutes, the train stops at the OR tambo airport immediately giving you access off the platform escalators which lead you to the parkade. Well worth the experience.
