Tembisa
Tembisa lies in the old Transkei hills near Mthatha, reached mainly via the N2, with smaller roads linking it to Ngcobo, Cala and Dutywa for everyday trips. Long hauls from spots like Standerton or Jacobsdal show visitors travel far to get here, while Lusikisiki trips are more of a local run. K. D. Matanzima Airport, 48 km off, is your closest flying option, named after the former Transkei prime minister, so bring padkos and watch your charging stops if you're in an EV.
