Review of The Gautrain Prices, Gautrain Rates & Gautrain Costs. The Gautrain Gold Card

So what does it cost to ride this modern miracle called the Gautrain. As normal human beings we always ask the price... rarely do we ask what are the savings by using an alternative such as the amazing Gautrain service. You see it's not just about the Gautrain cost it's all about saving money surely but perhaps most important for so many of us tired and weary N1 travelers over the past few years it's also about saving our nerves, and retaining our sanity so often thrown out of the window as we sit in those long slow-moving miles-long car motorway traffic jams.

Before talking about costs associated with Gautrain travel we nee to talk a bit about the new form of Gautrain currency namely the Gautrain Gold Card.

The Gautrain Gold Card Facility

The Gautrain Gold Card is a pass. It enables you to transfer between bus, train and parking facilities... the first time you use the Gautrain parking facilities you can access the parking facilites without a Gold Card. Once the buyer is in possession of a Gautrain Gold Card the user can use the card to pay for both train and bus services. You need a valid gold card to enter into and leave the parking facilities at the Gautrain stations. EVERY passenger needs to obtain their own Gold Card.

  1. The Gautrain Station parking areas cannot be left without a Gold Card.
  2. Every single person using the Gautrain needs their own Gautrain Gold Card... with the Gautrain Gold Card passengers can do the following:
  3. Transfer between train bus and Gautrain parking facilities.
  4. Pay for train services
  5. Pay for bus services
  6. Use the parking exit gate
  7. The Gautrain Gold Card allows you to load a range of Gautrain journey products including a Pay as you go to a 35 day Gautrain pass.
  8. Repeated use of the Gold Card can result in discounts
  9. A gold card costs R10 and is valid for 5 years... enquire at the station in order to buy your registered Gold Card. By registering your Gautrain Gold Card it enables the operators to blacklist the card if it should be lost or stolen.
